Circa Survive Band • Page 56

the verses of Bird Sounds are really cool

 

I do love The Lottery. As a whole though, the performance sounds uninspired. To me, you can tell the band members weren't in the best place mentally, especially Ant. Glad you love it though.

 

Violent Waves is fucking sick and I’d probably choose it over Descensus. VW is the record that got me into them, actually. They don’t have a bad album, though.

 

Been a few years since this thread saw some ranking :)

Feels weird putting Juturna that low, I just really love the ones above it.

My ranking of OLG > Juturna >> Amulet > BSN > Descensus > VW has changed subtly over the past year... Descensus had been my clear bottom choice, but snuck up on me recently upon re-listening a few times.

Sovereign Circle is really the one that took forever to click, but I finally get it now.

It's still an awkwardly back-heavy record, though. Schema and Desert, truthfully, are usually skips for me. Always Begin is solid but a bit by the numbers. Most everything after that is really good, though.

 

Man Schema fucking goes off, i love that song.

VW and BSN are neck and neck, those would change depending on the day

Always Begin is my favorite on Descensus. Nesting Dolls is up there too and I hope to see them play it live again someday, closing with that on the Descensus cycle ruled

 

Amulet
Juturna & On Letting Go

Blue Sky Noise

Descensus & Violent Waves

Amulet is clearly their best imo. Makes me really excited for what comes next.

 

Schema remains my favorite from that album. I agree they really don't have a bad release, though their later releases for whatever reason didn't capture me as well as the first 4 did.

 

OLG
BSN
The Amulet
Juturna
VW
Descensus

 

BSN and VW are my two favorite Circa albums. I've got your back!

 

I just know I really like Juturna, OLG, and Amulet. The other albums have at least a track or two I like.

 

i like VW more and more as i listen to it, but its still towards the bottom.

BSN -> OLG -> Juturna -> Amulet -> VW -> Descensus

Descensus did, and still does, absolutely nothing for me

 

BSN > OLG > Amulet > Juturna > Descensus > VW

 

OK FINE

All this always begin talk. I don’t know why that song doesn’t click with me.

 

It doesn't with me either. This band is one of a handful though that are complete anomalies in their scenes, and have their discography loved/praised for different parts of it. These guys, Deftones, ETID, DGD, Thrice, and (maybe) Underoath all seem to have eclectic favorites and album ranks that are all over the place.

 

Yeah, it is wild, I don't think I've seen two of these exactly the same.
