The first name-dropped comparison is from coincidence rather than influence, I know already, but if you took the quirky vocal stylings and overall feel of Motion City Soundtrack, but left the keyboard and downtuned the energy a bit in some places, and maneuvered it with a simplistic version of an At the Drive-In approach, you would have The Failure. No, this is The Failure, with former members of Calgary’s now defunct The Everymen, not the other now defunct band Failure who currently has members in Year of the Rabbit.

Does this band have a website? This album rules. I've seen the band and they rule too. this is a really good album, i just find it to be too long with 16 tracks. there are some really well written songs tho, like "Director of Misinformation" and "Cumulo Nimbus". Yeah middle eastern kids need more magic cards. Why? I dont have a fucking clue, but I bet they do. I have only heard the song which is downloadable on this page. Sounds really good. I'm liberating their tyranical, inept, and downright terrible deck of cards. you make money selling em to "middle eastern kids?" AHHHHHH!!!! The most appropriate band name ever. Well maybe I do only tell myself that. But it still used to be awesome. Dont play no more... Put short: the best thing about Magic is the hundreds of dollars I've made selling my collection to middle eastern kids. To quote Homer Simpson: "Kinda like D&D...except a little less insanely lame." I was talkin to forty stupid. Ill use one of my many anti black cards on you next! that doesn't answer my question... Yeah, BS, I have the Demonic Hordes and a crap load of those weird freaky black cards against you. Seriously, what the fuck is this shit? Dude. I have 11 untapped mountains and a fireball with your name on it. Id back shut up. This is where I laugh at you guys for playing magic: Excuse me. Bitches. "Actually, I think it was just 1/ 0 for each red. What was really awesome was the Nightmare, with it's strength/toughness decided by how many Swamps you had. I still carry around an Alpha Edition Serra Angel in my wallet..." "Actually, yeah i did have that. That card is BADASS. wasnt it a 5/5 flying with a unlimited 1/ 1 for wach additional fire mana you tapped? Actually, I think it was just 1/ 0 for each red. What was really awesome was the Nightmare, with it's strength/toughness decided by how many Swamps you had. I still carry around an Alpha Edition Serra Angel in my wallet... Actually, yeah i did have that. That card is BADASS. wasnt it a 5/5 flying with a unlimited 1/ 1 for wach additional fire mana you tapped? Aha, but, Vandal, are you in possession of the ultra valuable Shivan Dragon card? Eh? I sold that card for 50 bucks. Good thing I used to play magic the gathering, or else I never would have found that revive card so that BSD's cheating ass knife fighting skills didnt finish me off. Haha, yes, because The Failure have been making honest musical contributations to the punk scene for over 20 years... I know, they totally crush the Chaos! bsd, you shouldn't talk - you like Chaos UK - stupid gutter punks ...and the feud between bsd and inagreendase continues... I miss Failure...now a whole lot more. This score is for the space-rock Failure. I miss Failure...now a whole lot more. Nevermind that ATDI comment; I just realized that you said "simplistic version" of them, and I guess I can see that. Could be better, could be worse. All you losers need to get over the name thing and quit saying it sucks just for the sake of saying it sucks. Im from Calgary and I gotta stick up for some local talent. Yeah, "The Failure" needs to get their asses sued off by the real Failure pretty damn soon. Fucking idiots.. This shit blows. You know someone's tastes in music are terrible if they like this crap. This band sucks. they suck even more for not realizing that their band name is almost identital to FAILURE, a far better band than they will ever be. go buy fantastic planet instead of this crap. the world dosnt need shit like this. |
