[Stankervision]

even though dragon killing is illegal in missouri you beat the system and rocked the fuck out of that humid ass room...and if you havent learned anything from your visit im sure you may have got some knowledge from the chest beating rapping panhandler outside..and im the 6 dollar cd fan and we sure did learn alot that night im sure...

[dbloom810]

I saw you guys last night at the Elbo Room, and I have to say it was the best live show I have ever seen. You guys an awesome a stage presence, and pour so much energy into your music.

I'm already talking to the programming board at my school in Cleveland to have you guys come out and play a concert there.

(P.S We are like %75 engineers and everyone will be amazed at your hacking skills)

[xXxMaggotWhore666xXx]

I heard Q101 (Chicago!!:) bragging about how great this band is.

So I decided to check you guys out. And may I say, I am not dissapointed!

Awesome music! Keep it up ;)

[IFightDragonsRock]

Thank you!! :D yay for Chicago Rock!!!

[KKKAZE]

I like this :D "The Faster the Treadmill" is ace

[IFightDragonsRock]

thanks!! :P

[juicylover5296]

u know one of my teachers~ im from field

[egspoony]

I hear Brian of I Fight Dragons is fake... I had it confirmed by a homeless person.

[jmoso13]

Ya, i actually heard that too... saw it confirmed on snopes actually. Search "Chimpanzee in IFD", and then, while you're there, take a second to pull that retarted gerbil out of your ass and watch the demonstrations they do, how could they fake that? People are so lame...

[Boulderboy203]

oh thats kinda dissapointing if thats true

im still going to see them live at the apple store on the 22!

[IFightDragonsRock]

Nice! The Apple Store will also include a demo-session where we show how we use the controllers as instruments, ticklemerobot is welcome as well :) If you still doubt, check out some of the live vids people have uploaded where we mess up :P

[sniper6878]

yeah i mean seriously man, you cant tell that it is real? just go to theyre profile and watch a couple of the videos they made in theyre basement, they go dance around the pad, use the controllers, and just have fun with them...educate yourself before you speak

[IFightDragonsRock]

lol check the behind-the-scenes vid :P

[Boulderboy203]

they aren't faking

they controlers are hooked up to a computer by usb and each button controls a different sample

[ticklemerobot]

no, they're faking. i've had it confirmed by a sound guy. they're basically playing along to a track...

[unicornhardcore]

For the record, I still like Superman... I love good altruistic heroes!. But I've been listening to the EP for a while now (love it!) and I cannot get Money unstuck from my head, it's getting annoying but it's okay because it's a good song, just very catchy!! Come to Canada sometime, will ya?

[IFightDragonsRock]

Me too!! The song is my lament that barely anyone appreciates him these days :) Glad you like the EP and happy to be stuck in your head!! We want to keep playing further and further afield so Canada is definitely in our future!

[TheArcherFiend]

The only way i can describe this is an audio explosion of awesomeness with a front of coolness coming in from the west as it pours mind-blowing majesticness. I've had 4 of my friends just listen to 3 seconds of your music and are also addicted, keep being awesome!

[IFightDragonsRock]

hahahah that kicks ass!! I love the description, and we're happy to provide an explosion of awesomeness any time :D

-Brian

[CigarFoxMark]

You guys are awesome, I hope all the best for your band

[IFightDragonsRock]

Thanks!! And thanks for using "Money" in your vid ;)

[iluvpopsicls]

I am in love with your sound - it's like Fountains of Wayne collided with my 8-bit childhood memories and made music. I downloaded the free EP and it is definitely in heavy rotation on my iPod. I've told all of my friends to give you guys a listen. I can't wait to catch one of your shows up here in Chicago - one more reason to love this city!

[IFightDragonsRock]

Thanks iluvpopsicls!!! We're huge Fountains of Wayne fans so it's an honor that you say that :)

[homunculus9987]

When I listen to you guys, all I can think of is that line from Back to the Future, where the one guy goes "Hey, you know that new sound you've been looking for? Well listen to this!!!" lol, you guys are the kind of music I've been waiting to hear forever! Keep kickin ass! And lemme know if you guys ever decide to play a show for us out here in Buffalo, NY cuz i'd give my right arm to be there :-P

[IFightDragonsRock]

It's your cousin, Marvin! Marvin Kondo! :D

[blinkFTW12]

I was walking around Chicago with my friend who lives there and we went to a local record shop where i checked out the local bands section. I pulled out Cool is Just a Number and was uneasy at first. I bought it went back to my friends place and blasted it. You guys fucking rock. I love the Nintendo effects

[IFightDragonsRock]

Thanks!!  Which store was it?? We heart Chicago indie record stores :)

[blinkFTW12]

Hard-Boiled or something. I also saw your cd at Reckless Records

[IFightDragonsRock]

Nice! Those are both kickass stores.
