For some reason there was no thread about the band.



Quite a ridonkulous claim to come right from the band.
This is probably my most anticipated release of the year.


Also, post your appresh for this amazing band.

stoked.

hell yes! new cd is gonna own.

this makes me excited, it better not be a huge letdown.

I for one liked You Fail Me a lot, so I am very excited.

It has a few good songs, but as a whole, I didn't like it very much.

So, because of their claims about this upcoming release, I'm very excited. (Shouldn't be any acoustic songs).

I own all their releases.
they are by far my favorite grindcore/metal/whatevercore they are band ever.
They are the ones who got me into HEAVY music.
This new cd will not be a letdown. some kids say you fail me was a letdown but its ssooooo solid.
Way pumped for this.
the end.

have any of their albums been?

converge always delivers something worthwhile

well i wasnt too fond of You Fail Me. but i was hoping it doesnt get added to the list of letdowns this year.

(knocks on wood)

I think the song "You Fail Me" might be one of my fave songs by them. The lyrics are amazing.

looking foward to it

I fucking love Converge. I'm stoked.

true that.
I also love that nifty ending riff in Drop Out

^ Yeah, when I first heard it, I was like "This is great".

i've never really been into converge. some songs i like but overall i cant really get into them. i'll prolly pick up the new cd to see how it is though...

yeah right paul, you put them on my ipod! haha.

i am excited.

If anyone needs anything by this amazing band, just getfile me (heydudeitsmeben), and you don't have to IM me. I received most of their discography yesterday. this includes:

Halo in a Haystack
Caring and Killing
When Forever comes Crashing
Petitioning the Empty Sky
Jane Doe
Unloved and Weeded Out
You Fail Me
American Nightmare (split)
Brutal Truth (split)
Converge Live at the Ottobar 7.16.02
Deeper the Wound (split)
Downpour and Serial Killer (ep)
The Poacher Diaries (split)
Y2K EP

(I also have the new FASSW you should all check out...)

Jacob Bannon is probably one of the most self righteous assholes in the world.

that said, I'm so frickin excited for this record.

Holy shit, I can't believe I have every one of those.

I know you would have it all. Just for the folks who don't.

next to petitioning, i think You Fail Me was their best material theyve ever done. This cd will rule because it is Converge and if theres one band you can count on to put out something unlike anyone else, its Converge.

I own every album they have.
Not a big fan of You Fail Me although i think it has its strong spots.
I have HUGE expectations for this record and i really dont think i will be dissapointed.

Your opinion is wrong.

No, but seriously, how can you like YFM more than Jane Doe?

Seriously. Jane Doe was a fucking masterpiece.

I'm so excited for this album.

the only problem is nothing they ever do will EVER top Jane Doe.


and did Bannon do the artwork again, it definitely looks like his work.

Yeah, he did the artwork. This album is gonna be sweet.

Hopefully the songs are short, in your face, explogasm...yeah.

i love Jane Doe mucho, but i love Converge's more artsy records more, and there is nothing ive heard as unique and original as You Fail Me. Theres seriously no other record ive heard with that kind of production or variety of songwriting that actually fits

Converge - No Heroes (to be released 10/24/2006)



Converge’s new full-length album No Heroes will hit stores everywhere on Oct. 24. A masterpiece of raw emotion and adrenaline frenzy, No Heroes brilliantly combines the textural sonics of You Fail Me with the brutal assault of Jane Doe. The intensity of opening track "Heartache" will simply peel the paint from the walls. You will have to wait for the full assault, but check back to this page often, because we will be posting mp3's to satiate the obsessed. In the mean time, feel the weight of Jake Bannon's visual genius.
