i searched and searched but didn't find a topic on them.
thoughts?
opinions?
i personally love them. Max is a genius.
in a crazy person sort of way haha

its the fans who are fucking crazy. at bamboozle last year, i was so excited to see them. in the middle of one of the songs, a scary man with a big red beard grabbed me and yelled every word to the song in my face. he was not the only one doing this.

hate him/them to death.
he's a word that starts with the letter "p", i just can't remember what it is, that i hate.

I'm with adam. I think people only like this band because the dudes crazy

i think ...is a real boy is lyrically one of the best albums i've ever heard.

they are just so damn catchy

This band is fucking awesome.

Haha, that exact same thing happened to me at an early novembre show, except the kid didn't have a beard or anything, and then he apologized after the song cause he thought I was one of his friends, heh. But then he did it again during a saves the day song...

And I agree with killafrojames about their songs being so catchy. Usually when songs are catchy, they get old fast, but that is definitely not the case with SA, because ..IARB still hasn't gotten old.

I really dig the cd, as well as the releases before it. Max is a good dude and puts a lot into what he does. The rest of the band are awesome dudes, as well.

I HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS BAND!

One of my favorite bands. Definitely not because the guy is crazy. The music is just amazingly catchy, some of the songs have an awesome classic-weezer vibe, and the lyrics are a huge fucking satire. I love it.

My favorite song isn't on ...Is a Real Boy. I'd have to say "But a Fleeting Illness" is my favorite song.

oh i do love a bit of say anything. saw them last month and i thought they had a good stage presence about them.

hopefully seeing them with brand new so i will most certainly enjoy that!

My favorite song is either The Presidential Suite, Slumming It With Johnny, or We Will Erase All Life On Earth But Us

agreed. they are very catchy. when i first heard them it was iffy, then my brother listened to them and i was listening and i was singing along. i dont know how, but after hearing them once i knew the words..that doesnt usually happen when i listen to a band, i have to listen a few times in order to get the words down or i ahve to read them somewhere..but not in this case.

i love ...is a real boy, and ...was a real boy. havent heard much of their older stuff, but the cd's i have are amazing. i love the lyrics, the music. personally for max being crazy, he can write some mad lyrics. haha, love them. nothing against them, nothing bad to say about them (except for the 10 times i have tried to see them but fucking max didnt want to take his medicine and had to be readmited to the hospital).

Someone told me they did a cover of The Choke live back in the "baseball" era

(The Choke by STD might be the most song ever haha).

Yeah, I have heard the same thing. I have a demo of them playing Jessie and My Whetstone. Not so good, but still pretty cool haha.

yea, even while he loves Saves the Day, his voice doesn't really match the songs at all.

since when when jamison a part of this?

Jamison isn't, as far as I know. Parker is.

loooove say anything. like a lot.

Parker is their keyboardist now.

my favorite cd I've discovered so far this year...

thanks dudes.

New song up on AP.net called The Church Channel feat H. Williams of Paramore.
Amazingess.

ap banned me because tate is a faggot, someone rip it for me?

tate really is a faggot, I dominated him once on their forums and he edited his posts after i dominated so he wouldnt' look like a dumb shit

I fucking hate J Tate with a passion but that does not change the fact that this song is totally awesome.

heres a good qual copy for those who want it, http://ia351415.us.archive.org/1/items/Chu...urchChannel.mp3

I am really liking the new songs, they're a lot better than Is A Real Boy.

which was a masterpiece too.

I am calling top 5 of the year.

the only one that has completely blown me away was skinny mean man. i really hope the rest grow on me.

HOOOY GOOOYS OOIII SOIIING LOOOIKE AOOOO ROOOTARD

so far, im very disappointed. these songs kinda seem all over the place in a not good way

i know what you mean

me too, but that's kind of why I like them.

eventhough, wtf at saying this totally out of concept of the album.

Seriously? Top five?

Yeah, I didn't like a lot of shit this year.

btw the big dirty did finally win me over, but mostly on the strength of the first 5 or 6 songs + the last one.

Still not.

yeah im a little worried how different they are..i guess...thats a good thing?

a DOUBLE ALBUM would be pretty boring if the songs were very similar.

This is just general talk, but has there ever been a cohesively amazing and epic double album by a band where each and every song has been individually great? I mean, I know it's rare enough for a band to do that for a single album, yet often times most double albums i listen to have more than double the filler a single album would.

The Fragile by NIN was awesome.

Smashing Pumpkins - Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness was/is fantastic.

I am not saying it is not, but I think some of their earlier records pleased my ears more.

Have any of you heard the song they did with Hayley Williams?

yes it was already talked about somewhere

Truth.

Siamese Dream is just as amazing though.
