is this a reference to Mark Danielewsky's book?

[invividcolour]

yes.

[brians1398]

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

anyone else have this same opinion?

Circa Survive's best song in my opinion :)

[NapoleanBender]

@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...

what were they playing at the end? i never heard that sounded. awesome

[jasonroxorz]

When they played this at the brew in SLO California, he was belting "These modern things we know.... getting you off" it was awesome...

[AngelicasMarie]

[chancechainsaw]

[rossbucklin]

this gave me chills. i wanna see this song live so bad.

[gayerthankali]

shit! Circa's got a song from the book?

FUCKING AWESOME BOOK. <3

So fucked up, in a beautiful way.

[brians1398]

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

all is very good =)

[jsteeez]

@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
