Yeah after some more listening, I definitely like the original sound of the EP. Might be partly because I first discovered LIEY and the EP when I was first getting into that music scene and it holds some nostalgia factor.

 

Buddy mentioned he wanted to have this out on vinyl. Out of all their music this would have been the hardest to get pressed in 2019. Rather than go through the process of obtaining the rights to do it he decided a re-recording would be a fun little project to get there.

Dan Trapp was in the band from the beginning until before PTTFYH and he even did the drums for the last full length and this ep. Gavin’s been in the band since Renacer, and Zack Roach was in the band for three record cycles. Of course it’s true that Buddy can really be the only one to speak on “former selves” but at the least the current iteration of the band is pretty cool

 

Everyday I get closer and closer to wanting to start a GoFundMe to restart DTR and buy the rights for everything to properly press with artist involvement. And maybe continue on as a label again.

Idk how I would do the math to figure out correct pressing numbers but everything would get a standard black release. Bigger titles would get a variant or two.

 

Steven is so good

 

I’d donate lol i cant believe how a great indie with a stacked lineup could just fall apart

 

I am just popping into here to say I love the reimagined EP. sorry not sorry.

 

Was Don’t Look Down opening? If so, I went to the same tour.

 

He should re record LIEY because its one of my fav pop punk albums but the vocals are (endearingly) rough but I want to hear better screams on songs like Irony

 

Would be down for this but would be even more down for a re-recorded version of The Fire if they could keep it as heavy as it was.

 

I think the only song that kinda improved is Bloody Romance.

 

I have a download code for someone to use!

This is a fun listen but I miss the charm of the obnoxiously cranked piccolo snare Dan used on the original EP. The drum parts on the EP blew my 16 year old mind that someone my age (at that time) could be that good.

 

Love the new version of One Eight Seven.

 

I still believe that 187 is the worst song they’d play live over the last 10 years at their shows. I was pretty happy that Buddy retired it, but it of course came back

 

What are your issues with the song ?

 

I’m 25 now so I’ll come out and say there’s no nostalgic moment tying me to the EP. I’ve seen them play enough times to see the reaction from people that are a few years older than me. It clearly means a lot to a few people.

Buddy’s had some bad lyrics in those early stages of the band and the song is one of them. Structurally, the song is pretty bland. I still enjoy watching it live, but I always saw it as taking the place of a much better song that could have been played.

 

I'm 24 and something about the Ep and first record is more nostalgically charming than the rest of their stuff

 

So ready for new Senses Fail AND Silverstein.

 

This should be a tour

 

If SF and Silverstein tour together and don't come here, I'll cry.

 

They’ll go to the great country of Toronto I’m sure

 

when is The Fire show supposed to happen taht buddy tweeted about a year or two ago???

 

bold of you to assume he would actually follow through on that
