Converge

[bright lights, big city]

This album kind of crept up on me, I was vaguely aware they were recording awhile back, but just forgot about it.

But having listened to The Dusk In Us, I should be ashamed. Converge is just one of those rare bands that just cannot put out a bad, or even mediocre album.

Me too. Totally forgot about it. Sounds great! These guys have a rare ability to give me riff-induced goosebumps.

Ben Koller, though..

He never ceases to amaze me.

Hmm. Nothing impressive musically, cant understand the fuss over them.  converge has pretty average lyrics
, I just think a lot of their lyrics are written like an angsty 13 year old kid's journal,

"And I surrender to it all
Between you and me, I surrender to you
Forgive me for the sadness
And the bringing of you down
I just needed a lover and I needed a friend
And there you were
Running from forever like all the rest
Three simple words bled me dry
Three simple word bled us dry, bled us dry
I love you"

Kind of reminds me of an a high school kids poetry collection ...

What a surprise. You have the same IP address as Red Pill and People are Peple...and The Prodigy.

Fuck off.

Yep. Them, Deftones, Every Time I Die, Tool (although it's been ages)... you just know, worst case scenario, it's still going to be good.

I fucking love this record. It might even be top five of the year.

'Trigger' is one of my favorites at the moment. That bass line.

Enjoyed this one more than their last release, not that there was anything wrong with it either.
