this is officially my favorite circa survive song now. i mean holy fuck, its so damn relaxed lol, look at colin, dude looks like hes gonna go into a coma lol. good tunes.
I don't know why I realized this just now... but is it just me or does Colin look a lot like Tom Morello on stage, especially in this video? (Granted, a lot of it probably has to do with a similar taste in clothing)
i dont understand why colin and brendan havent achieved a nationally recognized "tom morello" status. i think the guitar work they do in circa is just as innovative and honestly theyre not many other bands that have guitarists who do what these guys do
theres almost no rhyme or reason to their stream of consciousness style of guitar playing but at the same time, it always falls perfectly in place and never ceases to amaze me
I agree with you on one level. However, I do understand why they aren't as nationally recognized; it's simply because Circa Survive is nowhere near as huge as Rage was/is.
The other thing is that Circa's guitars are much more buried in the mix of their songs than Tom's guitar is in Rage - in that case he's what drives the entire song. In my opinion that's neither a positive or negative thing by itself, it's just much different. To me they're both equally important to the music of their bands.
@brians1398 its because their guitar playing isn't very technical... it's a lot of sweeping dissonance and chords, you're not going to be recognized as a badass guitar player if you can't shred, sorry. it's not going to happen. plus, it doesn't translate well live sometimes. i'd rather listen to josh homme or omar rodriguez-lopez rip the fuck out of a solo. not that i don't love circa survive, but its really not about guitar ability
yea man i totally know exactly what your talkin about. shredding just isnt a part of the circa style, their just much more mellow and ambient in a different category of music
@jsteeez Judging music based on it's "technicality" is pretty stupid. You might as well listen to computer generated music if that's what you're after. Making something that sounds so good it consumes your fucking SOUL (like this) should be what people consider good music imo. Anyone can get crazy technical ability if they sit there practicing it all day but not anyone can channel whatever fucked up force you need to make something sound like this...
ive been meaning to go buy the juturna cd, but i was concerned that this song wouldnt be on there cause idk why..haha..but thanks for the information..
"House of Leaves" is the name of this awesome song. The tour is called "the twilight army tour." This song is on Juturna, but it's a bonus track. So it's attached to the end of "Meet Me in Montauk"...during the last (about) 6 mins of the song.
Kudos! to the person who taped this, the sound quality is awesome.
what were they playing at the end? i never heard that sounded. awesome

yea i totally agree. what colin and brendan do has much more beauty and subtlety than the in your face agression of toms playing
