Who WOULDN'T agree with that statement?

Strange, the last time I saw Jimmy Eat World, the Promise Ring opened for them. Nobody cared at all, which is really sad. Just about every single person in that crowd was at the show to hear "the Middle." Did anybody else see that tour? I know there was another band that opened...I want to say it was the Ataris, but I'm not sure that's right.

Used to think Maritime was good. I just can't respect a band that has no respect for themselves.

"Still, most analysts agreed that the impact of Pitchfork's scathing review of music will be dampened by the 2.4 rating it received from Pitchfork staff writer Dave Maher just moments after the initial critique was published online. Maher termed Schreiber's assessment of music "overwrought, masturbatory posturing intended to make insecure hipsters feel as if they're part of some imagined elite beau monde.""

hahhahah

Maritime makes really really great pop music not as special to me as Promise Ring but still great. They should tour with House & Parish and coem here.

More cheers for Maritime. Saw them open for The Weakerthans like 5 years ago. Excellent show.

Jesus, that is an incredible tour...

These two bands along with the Promise Ring are the only thing I've listened to for over a month.

So pumped for the new Maritime record. This band is the next fucking...Death Cab or something.

Sounds like a good tour.

I like Maritime but promise ring was way better

The new Maritime record is great, but I expected that. The first track is a scorcher. Much love.
