At the Drive-In Band • Page 8

do we really need a new ATDI record in 2016? probably not, but I dig the song and am looking forward to the record because I choose to try and enjoy things, but that's just me.

 

Not a fan

 

You can say anything negative man. Just people are gonna talk about it. There is no evidence that ATDI is doing this solely for the money, although that totally could be an aspect of it. Their live shows seem to require at least a bit of passion though.

 

So the dude from Engine Down is on the song or he was just touring with them?

 

Not sure about a whole tour, but a Detroit date just popped up on live nation

 

there is like a five date tour

 

Were these just the dates they cancelled from their last tour? I know the MI date was cancelled after Cedric's vocal issues

EDIT: Nevermind, just saw in another thread that they probably are haha

 

Keely's part of the band for real, for real

 

I mean it's definitely a cash grab and that's not a negative thing since what they're doing is their job

The song is pretty good, but I think that has to do with Refused setting my bar for new songs very very low

 

I don't mind the song. Cedric just sounds way too different from RoC era, but that's to be expected. Still wish Jim was on board. That being my only concern, but I love Engine Down. So maybe the rest of the album will be a mix of post RoC songs, and Demure. Which would be lovely.

 

tbh: I'm surprised his voice fits even this well with ATDI at this point. I see what people are saying but I think that might be about as close as we get to how he used to sound in this band. I'll take it

 

That's kinda how I feel as well. It's definitely as close as we'll get.

 

i'll take it

 

Like it's definitely not the best but I don't get that "You're ruining this" feeling I did from Refused

 

that new refused album was the worst album of that year

 

there's no way people actually think this sounds like tmv....right?

 

It was so safe and somehow also bad at being safe, it's like every way the album could be looked at still made it a bad album

 

Listened to this again today and I'm honestly super into it. More so than I thought I would be.

 

it sounds like tmv on the first two releases without any of the experimentation. so, i guess as steve pointed out, kinda like antemasque

 

I'm convinced people comparing it to TMV have never actually listened to them

 

have listened quite a lot actually but thanks!!!

 

is that Cedric singing? Must be At The Antemas-Volta!

 

I just don't see how this sounds anything like TMV at all. And saying this sounds like The Mars Volta without experimentation.. which means it doesn't sound like TMV at all, because they thrive off their experimentation.

 

sounds nothing like tmv to me
