Not Quite Metal?, Viral Vomit

A TIME-LAPSE VIDEO OF THE MAKING OF CIRCA SURVIVE’S NEW ALBUM COVER

 Wednesday, February 24th, 2010 at 2:30pm by

Check out this time-lapse video of artist Esao Andrews painting the cover of Circa Survive’s forthcoming album Blue Sky Noise. My missive against the relevance of album art be damned, this is pretty fucking cool. Many of you will immediately write this band off because of the way their vocalist sounds, and many of you will will (rightly) declare they aren’t metal… but hey, fuck you, it’s my website!

Blue Sky Noise comes out on 4/20. You can catch Circa Survive on tour with Coheed & Cambria and Torche this Spring.

    Great band. His vocals wear a bit thin at times, but I can dig it.

    Amazing band. I thought I was the only one who frequents this site that loves this band.
    Andrews is an awesome artist and has made all of their artwork; his work on “On Letting Go” might be my favorite album art of all time.

    This band is awesome, and Green’s vocals are the shit. 4 or 5 years ago I wouldnt of appreciated them, but now I certainly can. They are golden.

    Check this band out.

  • Zoker

    I’ve always thought about this band as a generic post-hardcore one and never checked if I was correct… but since I’ve a lot of respect for Vince’s tastes… I’ll give it a listen now.

    I don’t care what people say about this band being “gay” or whatever, they are incredible.

    • Wineberg

      Yah, incredibly GAY!

      • The Ghost of D. Boon

        Take a bow, sir.

  • Coop

    Well I feel like the odd man out; I REALLY dislike this band. It has always sounded like generic prog-emo to me.

    Good to see a band doing something slightly progressive and not getting slagged for not having Br00t4l too good to be trve breakdowns.
