i think itd be cool if people found a way to go to shows without seeing ANY bands. seems like hte next logical step... jsut hang out while a band is setting up and then disappear into the mist. that would be cool.
theyre fucking amazing band from nyc. go to relapse or myspace and find them. that middle east show is gonna be amazing, but ill there to see you guys and if IP is still a band for this show.
yeah...it's a concept album about art and humanity...how art affects the audience and affects the creator; how the mind concieves the product but also how the product has concieved the mind...
it's like a big opera, pretty triumphant. The booklet is going to have art from Joshua Andrew Belanger and I really want an accompanying graphic novel to go with this.
The ideas and stories are played out through doom and grind and orchestral music. On any given song there is a chorus, violin, synths, grand piano, guitars, drums, guest vocals, cello....

i think vanna is the worst band in boston right now.
cool...cant wait to hear it nick...thats a sweet topic for the album too, "how the mind concieves the product but also how the product has concieved the mind"...i hear ya...i think brain dc should make a guest solo on the album!! haha. thats sweet if lctr play, they are really awesome dudes and a great band...thanks for hookin em up nick. those are our homeys.
in another amazing upset to the bill, rumor has it DISASTER STRIKES in playing a surprise set on this. Featuring members of Unholy Trinity and Diamond Mines, amongst other things, DS has been around longer than the moon. They have a new album coming out on Alternative Tentacles with guest vocals from Steve Austin (today is the day) and Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedies)
I'm sorry, but I'm only going to go to see Infantile Prostitute. I've checked out all the other bands, and I'm not impressed. Who the hell put a brutal grind band on the same bill as these Vanna and Taste of Silver jokes, and at a Hippie Venue too? Disaster Strikes would be an interesting addition to the bill. I havent seen them since I almost got kicked out of regeneration records.
Man, I've been talking to Kill or Be Killed for a while about this. Would you like to join us, Mr. Whiskey, in our tearing up of the pit and other such insanity?
Dude, seriously. You have a fucking grind band, with song titles like "Sand Paper Handjob" and "Nun Defiled" playing at a hippie fundraiser. Second, and I may repeat myself here, you booked a BRUTAL-ASSED grind band with a bunch of screamo and hardcore bands. I hate to break it to ya, but those audiences are quite different from eachother, one group will not nessessarily like the musical stylings of the other. In fact, I gaurentee you that those who come for These Are and company will not be enjoying Infantile, conversely, you cannot expect me to enjoy what Taste of Silver calls metal. Besides, you all are playing at a venue that strictly states: No Booze, No Drugs, No Jerks. I dont know about the rest of you reading this, but that more or less rules me right out.

someone always comes on and tells me that someone that likes my music wouldn't like grind and vice versa.
but I do.
so there goes that theory, huh? Maybe I can be in the record books!
and to add to it....nick is right most kids dont just like one subgenre of metal or hardcore or grind...most kids that listen to this shit listen to a lot of different genres and styles...my opinion...some kids that like "brutal grind" care way too much about what other people listen to.

dude, I listen to Ani Difranco cause i know it'll score me points in this scene.
And The Moldy Peaches.
And I also really like Josh Wink and S.O.A.P. (the black swedish house music women).

"all bands suck."
all the wisdom you need.
Agreed...This, my friends, is America. We have the freedom to watch whatever bands we want, leave whenever we want, and drink whatever we want outside the venues walls.

Wow. Taste of Cigs, I am in awe of your bad-assitude. Nothing I can say can even come close to equaling your awesomeness. I want to be just like you, and I will be, and here's how. I will promote the scene unity, i.e its ok for me to come late (cuz I'm the headliner and I'm getting money for this show), but its not ok for the smaller band's fans to leave early and possibly miss the gift of God that is my band because I need more fans in the first place. I will be in a melodic hardcore band posing as a "black metal/grind band". I will have more scene points than smaller bands because my band can tour. All in all, I will just be better than everyone else, and I will talk down to people by means of a computer screen and a keyboard.
skumbag, I can understand why you "are trying to rack up the most sexual rejections known to man."
and my band personally enjoys shows that have a diverse bill, so playing with Vanna (not any longer on this bill) and TTOS along with any other band is just fine by me...shit, we played a metal show with Irepress, and I'm glad we did, because they blew me away, and we our selves have been stuck on bills that are not our particular taste or arent even the "best fit" for our sound, yet just as amazed as I am by some unique acts I see, maybe one of those people there might say the same about my band...which is the whole reason I play music
Murph, you're absolutely correct. It is important to go play with other styles of music and meet other people. However, my initial comment was that this show seems to be billed strangely in respect to the straight up styles/types/politics of the bands playing. And I am good friends with at least some of the members of Infantile Prostitute, and I am going solely to support them. I dont care that my door money is supporting some hippie project, and I'm not going to hang out with a bunch of people I do not know. I'm going to support the basement grind scene, bands that dont take themselves too seriously and can play music that I like, and I'm also going becuase I want to check out anther band there that interests me. Shit, I'm going there to have fun, and when I stop having fun, I'll leave, if I dont like the way a band sounds/their style of music, I wont stick around. I'm going to be there when I'm there, and leave when I leave, and if anyone has a problem with it, tough.

I got no problem with it, I wouldn't want to be around your negitive attitude anyway.
I just think it's funny how you're all like "I'm good friends with some of the memebers of Infantile Prositute" but initially asked why we were on the same bill as them. I mean there's 3 guys in it, and if you look at the pictures on this site you'll figure it out.
let's be honest, how often when at a show do you think back to the messageboard thread regarding it? I know I pretty much never do...let's just have some fun, ay sport?
sean... i would talk to you if you didnt always blatantly try to get in my pants...i mean i know im a sexy 300 lb man...but cmon....that one time i was really drunk...it didnt mean anything

you can sweet talk me all you want but youre still getting pancakes in the morning.
listen brian, you cant go on this way. just let it go, ive moved on to Cav we talked about the mosh yesterday and how you cant bring it. i know Cav is the one who has brought it. so its just time to let it go and let me move on.
lets not try to compare brian, even though i already did but hey you cant control me. im free, free like the eagle or other small fury creatures that fly and you have no will over me to whoever my love goes. and its not you fatman.
brian, you son of a bitch. you just dont learn when someone tells you to shut the fuck up. you shut the fuck up. i will kill you, oh wait wrong thread Ha
in short...nick ttos was accused of some shit (which i happen not to believe) like 4-5 years ago and a couple people at harvard (ya this place was actually at harvard u) caught wind of it and tried to shut the show down. we werent there for most of the drama cus we showed up late.
