What the fuck...how come there isn't more of Todd's stuff out? This is ridiculously great music, the guitars, the vocals...I would buy an album from this guy in second.
Todd, you are an amazing singer, writer, and guitarist. I'm so proud to call you friend. The explosion is about to hit as Recourse to Reason becomes the next iconic band of our time!!! I see this up and coming album as standing in the likes of some of the most amazing bands of all times, yet not like anything I've heard. I'm a huge fan already!!!
@justinshaw1701---I met Todd after a show in Columbia, SC some years ago. Super nice guy and I would love to see him make a strong comeback. Thanks for all the great music.
Fucking awesome. Todd, dude, make a cd when ur the lead singer. Badass vocals. Take your loyal bass and player and sing it solo bro. No Tantric or Days bullshit.
i want to draw attention to a disturbing fact. millions upon millions of people visit the youtube video for Asher Roth's I Love College.......and 5,354 people have viewed this song.
All this new Todd music (Interchange & Solo) material is strong. He's a fine songwriter in his own right, not to mention the fact he's an exceptional guitar player.
I could give a sH*t about who's better! all I have is broken pieces of what was once a great band that was DOTN. Tantric was and is cool and now Todd has his new stuff which sounds cool and original, he's a talent and this is the first time i've heard it and will now be added as one of my faves. So F*ck off and enjoy the good music.
I agree. Tantric it´s what it is now cuz of the guys of Days of the new. Todd made everything. NoW THAT crapy band of tantric sounds like all that shit like creed was trying to sound like a grunge band.. What a shame.. DAYS OF THE NEW RELEASE ALBUM PURPLE SOON. !
lets see how the new tantric sounds in the future. you will soon reconize the talent has left the band and their songs will suck you will see. Todd did it all and has the talent
dude, tantric is number 14 on the mainstreem rock charts. Where is todd whitener. I don't see his name anywhere. Oh and yeah don't judge before you listen. Tantric's new stuff is way better then the old band. All the old songs sounded the same. todd had to have it that way.
Todd was playing and wrote the songs for the new cd. They just added a new line-up to play his songs, added other crappy sounds or altered them and got that inoring violin. The only reason they didn't change their name is because they thought they wouldn't be reconized. Was Hugos past bands succesfull? No. Was Todds? Yes, days of the new
There's several reasons why the band name didn't change, but because you are no longer a Tantric fan there's no need for you to know those reasons. The reason Days of the New was a GREAT band was for one reason: Travis Meeks. Just now, I read a comment above that said: Travis taught Todd how to play the guitar? If that's so then it was Travis who has the talent and taught Todd.
The songs on the End Begins (except for "the one") were written by the Tantric NOW...not Todd!
Todd didn't write The One, Hugo did! Yes, Todd wrote the majority of the so-called Tantric 3 album. Maybe it will be released and maybe it won't, that's up to Maverick Records. That violin is not ignorant and I doubt that anyone who can play classical music and teach it is ignorant. How dare you say that????
I hope that makes things clearer for you...but then again you "know good music"
Dude, The end begins has nothing to do with Todd Whitener. And thank god for that because the new guys are fucking awesome. Who gives a shit about Days of the New. Whoo hoo. He didn't make that Band. Travis Meeks did. Todd was only a puppet. Travis didn't need him, and obviously neither does Hugo. So, get your facts straight dude.
Its ironic that Orange went platinum, which had Todd, Matt, and Jesse on it, while green and red did not. Maybe Travis didn't need them, but they sure helped him sell more records. Unless 'the end begins' starts selling like crazy, it wont have the success the original line up did. Thats not any disrespect to Hugo, its just true.
you can't really believe, "thank god, todd is gone" Hugo is a fucking drunk and a liar and Todd left because he outgrew the band..The tantric sound left with Todd and Matt, even Jesse and Bruce..Interchange was more Tantric sounding than the new tantric is
I don't give a shit what you say Todd was what was behind Tantric and now that hes gone i don't think that band is as good as it was. I'm not trying to put Hugo down he has a great voice and i still like him, but once Whitener learns his voice and how to use it better he will kick fucking ass. It sucks tho cause Tantric was bad fucking ass before they broke up and now i don't think this new cd is anywhere near the other two. As for DOTN i find them far above Tantric.
Todd is way better, Travis Meeks taught the guy how to play the guitar, and it appears he also picked up on how to write bad ass songs. Not to mention he wrote most of the songs for Tantric.
Dude you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground. Todd wrote the whole Tantric album and then left. not to mention everyone left but Hugo who is still in the band, which it should be called something else now, but the lawyers probably worked out some stupid deal to use the name, knowing Hugo couldn't sell 5 records without the name. The record label simply brought in some puppets to play the parts that the original players created. Get your shit straight.
Pearldrummer is 100% right. Todd wrote everything Tantric did except for about half of the songs on the ends begins. If you are a true fan you can tell the difference in the sound from the songs. Have you heard the demos from mind control? They suck ass. Pearl is right if they didnt get to keep the name the only cds they would sell is to their family and fans who are too druged out to know the difference.
I think hugo kicks his ass any day! The new Tantric is way better! Erik kicks ass! Joe Kicks ass! Kevin kicks ass! Marcus kicks ass! and Hugo kicks ass!
