I love how everyone is throwing around all these "probablys" and "I bets" like they are actually saying something factual. It's moronic and it's just your opinion.

We aren't MX and we don't go from loving a band to calling them overrated and pretentious. I've been listening to the same CTTS catalogue for roughly 3 years now and it is still as brilliant and poetic as the first time I heard it.

Sure a lot of people have heard about them, but it doesn't mean they listen to them. It's unfortunate that the band has to put up with the lame insults some of you are throwing out just because they are gaining some popularity.

I mean gosh, if I were in a band like that, I know I would only want to sell like 50 copies of my EP and have a 3 day tour every month or so. That's like totally sticking to your roots. So punk rock. So commendable.

CTTS sounds awesome. the lyrics are awesome. the playing is awesome. everything is awesome. now, why do i listen to more Portrait? because CTTS sounds so good and so well rounded that it gets boring to listen to because you know it's gonna be great anyway, and you already get the point. Portrait sounded a tad more honest because they used simpler language and probably went the extra mile for their delivery. there. both are awesome though

I totally disagree. The songs go straight for emotional content, but its delivered in an intelligent, complicated way.

Phone interview on this Monday at 4.
They starting a tour with Thursday (they've toured with them before) which looks to be good.

xcult_classicx · 09-05-2007, 06:58 PM

didn't they also do a tour with Neil Perry before?

The Dave · 09-05-2007, 07:20 PM

I just couldn't picture Thursday (playing A City By The Light Divided songs) with CTTS.

personally, i wish they'd stick to their Full Collapse songs. those were just perfect, IMO.

I heard from a friend that they also toured with the fall of troy, can anyone verify that? I checked out all of their past shows on their website, its pretty cool looking at the bands theyve played with. Lucky bastards played with Kodan Armada twice
