Circa Survive Band • Page 28

I wouldn't say they're bland but the bridge and outro are obviously what elevates the song

 

Yeah! That was a p different and interesting thing from them

 

I seriously love the guitars on the Descensus title track. Reminds me of Isis or Tool slightly. It's such a different feel for Circa. Hence why it's my fav on that album, and yeah the super personal AG lyrics too.

 

the title track on Descensus is so great. Very close to my favorite song on that album, if only Always Begin wasn't my favorite Circa song in general. Some people complain that it goes too long but for me that's one of those songs you can just close your eyes and drift elsewhere

 

All that she wants, is another baby....

 

Juturna - We're All Thieves
On Letting Go - Your Friends Are Gone
Blue Sky Noise - Through The Desert Alone
Appendage - Lazarus
Violent Waves - The Lottery
Descensus - Descensus

I couldn't do a least favorite because this band hasn't released any bad, or even mediocre, songs except for Bad Heart and Nobody Can Change.

 

Love Always Begin, I'll play that album again today

 

Act Appalled
Your Friends Are Gone
Get Out

 

Always Begin rules. Steve laid down such a great beat for that one

 

Gonna listen to it 10 times today. See if I come around.

 

Act Appalled
In The Morning And Amazing
Imaginary Enemy
Lazarus
The Lottery
Schema

 

10 times!?

 

that riff in Sovereign Circle always had me jamming

 

Laughed at that too hah.. what's funny it's also on The Starting Line's 'Somebody's Gonna Miss Us', like in the real song, and I actually always thought that's a quite clever song.

Also, too much happened in this thread over a day hah, but I love doing rankings, though it's difficult in this case, and I won't even try to list any bad ones, so here's my current favorites:

Juturna - The Glorious Nosebleed / House Of Leaves
On Letting Go - Living Together / Your Friends Are Gone
Blue Sky Noise - Glass Arrows / Frozen Creek
Violent Waves - Birth Of The Economic Hit Man / The Lottery
Descensus - Nesting Dolls / Descensus

 

aaand well, I'd have to say both Inuit Sessions and Appendage were perfect to me too! For example Handshakes At Sunrise was such an uplifting tune for me back in the day. And I remember having massive chills, sitting in my bed at night and listening to Everyway. As far as you guys mention Lazarus, the second half is definitely really strong, wish I could see them play songs that one live.

 

love the urgency of Handshakes

 

yeah, it's funny how right now I skimmed through their whole discography very quickly, and it reminded me of so many weird memories or emotions : ) I'm really very connected to some of those tunes!

 

I love Every Way a lot. That'd be my favorite from Appendage if Lazarus wasn't so damn perfect

 

Everyway is actually a very simple song, but it's nearly joyful for me. We tend to play it with my band whenever we go ape shit and jam some covers from the back of our minds on rehearsals : )

 

"Handshakes" slays... too easy to forget about that one.

 

Ant used to sing a cover of Bjork's Unravel before the band kicked in wit Handshakes.

 

I remember that! What was better was the cover of 'Unravel' he used to perform together with Casey Crescenzo, as far as I remember it was really cool.

 

Always begin 10 times...maybe not in a row. ha

 

I think my 3xLP Deluxe Edition just shipped.

 

My 1xLP shipped Friday, but for some reason it went from New Jersey to California when I live in North Carolina.
