No BORISHEAVYROCKS!!! ?

Is it out yet? I heard only one song

:angry:

These two are still around?! With Palumbo and Anthony Green, respectively?

Fuck, those bands take me back, especially Glassjaw.

Gonna be honest and admit I prefer old Saosin to Circa Survive but both bands had their shining moments. I was an emo kid in early high school for sure XxX

Do you like BORIS ilp?

Probably the best korean band of like all time.

aren't they japanese??

i like both cultures. a lot. but they would likely both be insulted at a mix up like that!

plus, the korean music i like is all about the visual element, dancing, and fandom, not necessarily creativity. i have old and dead or young and angsty American musicians for that. Or some combination thereof.

My faves this year, in no particular order:

Azusa Tadokoro - So What?
BAND-MAID - Just Bring It
The Birthday Massacre - Under Your Spell
Ghost - Ceremony And Devotion
The Idol Formerly Known as LADY BABY - Pinky! Pinky!
Linkin Park - One More Light
LiSA - LiTTLE DEViL PARADE
Paramore - After Laughter
Royal Blood - How Did We Get So Dark?

oh sorry, don't get mad I'm downloading it right now

so it was supposed to be a farewell album? that's sad news :cry:

I was just foolin wid you babe.

Yes it was supposed to be their farewell (pun intended) album.

Indeed. I was kidding. The Japanese Army fucked Korea up bad early 20th century. They haven't forgotten.
