These days you can take a small stone, close your eyes, and throw it, and you'll probably hit an metal-emo-hardcore band in the head with it...there are THAT many of them out there now. From Autum To Ashes (FATA) will take that thrown stone, catch it, and hurl it back in your face. People who liked this also liked:           Please login or register to post comments.

amazing Complete shit. If you like this then you fucking suck. Not only does this band kick ass but this album has incredible flow and contrast. I bought this cd because, get this, i heard mercury rising, the track that is "a trippy spoken work piece about punching your TV untill your hand is a bloody pulp." Yeah, and it was so cool and like, not yet done before i had to go out and here this band and they basically rock my socks. I love this CD. too bad its FATAs only good cd. to the reviewer.... dude the line isnt... this is an awesome fuckin album, their first album and it is surprisingly a great fuckin cd. its fuckin great because one guy has the hardcore voice and the drummer has the emo voice. whoever likes screamo has got to get this cd!!! heh, i thought they sounded pretty nice, but my basis of comparison is minimul. awesome band that treally nows how to change thigs, keep u on the edge of your seats and tickle every music lover taste buds.lyrics that are meaningful and well put together. this band has a lot going for them. i cant wait till three next record. I don't know if I could declare FATA as the best band ever, but they are my personal favorite. and the female vocals on "short stories with tragic endings" is melanie wills, the lead singer for one true thing if any of you were wondering. I haven't heard any of that bands songs though. Excellent review as well. I like your rhetoric. this album was good.... fuck you all Kudo's to the guy who labled the vox of FATA as "The growler/yeller dude." washington dc punk rockers from autumn to ashes shred all preconcieved boundaries of early 70s crossover r&b on their debut lp on capitol records. this album features testicle melting guitar licks by shitpiss mcgrizzlefuck, fuzzy happy smiley rectum blasts by drummer imbibe karim and semen gargling skittle blonz by crooner falfei algornaok. I hate these fuckers.... the guy has no talent for singing... if they wanted to sell more cd's theyd just get rid of the growler/yeller dude and let the drummer have lead vocals. But this is just my opinion.... bash away narrowminded fuckers This cd is the shit, one of the best bands ever!!! FATA has a very good and different sound to it, this makes them unique. And everyone that says it's crap, can lick the anal sphincter of a camel!!!! This album is very well made,even though i wish Ben Perri's vocals was more like "the fiction we live"."the royal crown vs. blue duchess" is the best opening track off any lately, it really sets the mood. This album is nothing short of a modern day masterpiece What is there to say that hasn't been said. It's amazing. Sick double bass in Cherry kiss and Reflections What is there to say that hasn't been said. It's amazing. The drums...crazy i so enjoy the elitist atmosphere surrounding comments not only for this review, but just about every single one. shit describes this album perfectly i dont think words can describe how good this album is I think the lyrics are no good. Im sick of hearing bands whine about girls. So I take the fact that most of the lyrics are screaming and hard to decipher and pretend they are singing some politically aware song... my unknown emo-hardcore band is better than your unknown emo-hardcore band. why? because i said so. AMAZING. Who gives a shit what label they're on ?!! where can i start with this album? i think i'll start by saying that this is the greatest hardcore album ever!!! In my opinion maybe the best of any kind of music! This cd is a mix of krazy energetic songs that make you want to rip someones head off, and soft break downs that are so soothing! The guitar rifs are incredibly amazing!! and it isn' always the same thing like on most hardcore cds(example: poison the well). the drumming is also magnificient! Finaly, short stories with tragic endings, the last song on this cd, is possibly my favorite song ever. You are at first relaxed by the violins and soothing guitars, and then starts the hardpounding distortion part! The last five minutes of the song i believe is the best part of the song. With the beautiful female vocals. At first, i hesitated to listen to it, but the i was totaly amazed by the great lyrics. All in all, this cd rocks!! you must check it out! I really like this album and no i am not 14, but everyone has their own opinions and we should not look down, or dis their opinions! so could we please keep this civil and stop calling these people 14 year old freaks...huh? is that possible? or are you all preschoolers who can't grow up and respect other people's opinions? I am semi-interested in this album but it is not great to me. The thing that pisses me off though is the fact that everone has to think that their musical tastes are right and others are wrong. If someone likes this band, good. Maybe it will open their eyes to new and better things. So everyone else that has written a fucking whinny little girl comment below FUCK YOU! Let people enjoy what they want to and shut the fuck up! guitar part: Chug chug chug, chug chug, chug chug chug. I like Hatebreed, Strife, Slick Shoes, Blink 182, Good Riddance, Satanic Surfers, Bigwig, Rise Against, Jimmy Eat World, Reel Big Fish, Sick of it all, Choke, Layaway Plan, mxpx, grade, the weakerthans, propagandhi, mad caddies, bad religion, unwritten law, reach the sky, weezer, rancid, AFI, the offspring, Bracket, strung out, ten foot pole, madball, no fun at all, All/Descendents, sublime, ozma, greenday, NUFAN, death by stereo, NOFX, Warzone, Earth Crisis, Frenzal Rhomb, mustard plug, randy, goldfinger, the Living End, pennywise, limp the bosstones, the goo goo dolls, the clash, the police, the who, oasis, blur, supergrass, snuff, ensign, papa roach, gob, saves the day, kid dynamite, 88 fingers louie, dropkick murphy's, pulley and diesel boy. i hate double bass stuff listen,i can't say i have a lot of history with this genre. i enjoy the first ptw album a lot, drowningman is way sweet, and shai hulud is the jam. but my knowledge gets a little flaky from there on out. but one thing i definitely know is that this band is wholly derivative. seriously. just terrible. theses lyrics you guys think are so great suck major ass. while i might despise thursday for ripping off at the drive-in in horrible ways, they actually write excellent lyrics. why? because while they might be singing about the same old boy/girl song and dance, they never have to come right out and say it. subtely is lost in this genre as far as lyrics go. these guys are seriously just playing into the hands that bands like new found glory and the starting line do. people need to understand that life exists outside of the opposite sex (or the same sex, or the genderless). fuck this band, fuck them in their stupid asses. for the guy that said FATA ripped off "you and i" (who are an amazing band, everyone should check them out. and obviously the assistant) you are wrong. FATA is nothing like you and i. FATA is melodic hardcore w/ messages about friends and girlfriends, loves and etc while You and I is hardcore w/ offtimey indie complexes thrown in there w/ politically motivated lyrics and such. I'm glad you're not 14. I'm glad you got to throw out there that you saw Bad Brains back in the day, don't forget to tally up your scene points in the scorebook, though w've all seen Bad Brains in one embarassing form or another in the past few years so don't be too happy. If you caught Black Flag maybe I'll raise an eyebrow. But then I'l still proceed to think of you as an idiot for listening to From Autumn To Ashes. I'm the guy who wrote this review and I can promise you one thing...I am far from 14 years old. I'll put it to you this way...I saw Bad Brains live back in the day. I basically need a cane to walk I'm so freakin old! This cd is fucking amazing, I can't believe that people are saying that it sucks... This has to be one of the best metalcore albums i've ever heard "go familiarize yourself with the bands on a record label like Slap-A-Ham or 625 Thrash. both of those labels produce quality hardcore." ...look at me everyone! look at me! i'm hardcore, i can name a few labels that most people have never heard so that makes me really hardcore! c'mon for christ sake! look at me! i'm hardcore i swear... i really really like this cd, and slap a ham is ok but i'm not much of a fan or powerviolnece, fuck on the beach can get annoying by the time the cd is over. Ready Here's my points on this, and to think I never feel the need to address know nothing idiot 14 year old reviews, but I will because people are missing important points. fucking amazing, cant stop listening gay I gotta go with ejaculine on this one. Get a life and live it loser. As for the review, definately one of the better first reviews. Keep it up!! It is a great cd, they are great live, and this is hardcore. The idiot who wants to be cool by saying they suck and plugging his unknown band needs to stop saying bullshit. Hey your bands suck just listen to blah blah for real hardcore... haha what a loser "If you like your hardcore loud, fast," never heard the album, but that's a great review. |
