That being your opinion (which doesn't make it an actual fact. I don't give a fuck how much of an expert you THINK you are.) I'm currently on my second spin, and I'm impressed. I think his has the potential to be their most adventurous effort yet. I didn't think they could touch on any more musical forays after Colors, but they have. I'm not sure if I like it more than Colors, but Colors took a long time to become one of my favorite albums. Right. That being your opinion (which doesn’t make it an actual fact.

Why do bands have to release something better than their last record? It's not a good as Alaska, Silent Circus, Colors, Self Title, blah blah blah. Every record is different, I personally believe all 5 records are not comparable. I would love to know of another band, that puts out as many quality releases as this band has. I mean, there really is no filler, no thrown in ideas, it feels like a jam session with out getting too weird or out there. That is the Great Misdirect, you think we are going this way, and we go that way, you dig this, you dig that, it's music , its supposed to be all over the place.

They seemed to know how to play(+) and were very energetic (+), but their songs went all over the place and were generally a mess. Just when a guitar or keys part had me interested, it changed to something completely discordant. FAIL. You guys must be trippin’

I tried to come off as if I knew better then everyone else by insinuating you did not even know what genre you were listening to but instead just made myself look like a complete tard. I'm going back to listening to my Ricky Martin/Creed remix which is clearly metal. Fuck BTBAM. Well anyways BTBAM fans I am sorry. I tried to come off as if

You see I'm a tool and it is not enough for me to say that I don't like this band because it is not g@y enough for my tastes. I need to attack the validity of the band's genre instead using percentages pulled directly from my hemroid-filled butt. I am going to ignore the obvious irony that lies in the fact that BTBAM has a LOT more in common with metal then Radiohead but will still compare them on the basis of being "complex and technical" when the truth is that Radiohead is not only not technical by pretty much ANY standard but often times very thematically simple as well.

This isn't the 1980's. There are more sub-genres of metal then there are lesions on your brain( and that is a LOT). This is America and you are entitled to live in your own little world where BTBAM is not metal but hey you are all alone there because I doubt most people would disagree that it is tech-death-prog metal. So what's next? You want to argue about whether the sky is blue? If so, what color is the sky in YOUR world? I think that expression is meant to refer to a son or daughter but you’re soooo
clever I guess you allready knew that.
