Forgive Durden Band

Forgive Durden is an indie rock band from Seattle, Washington, who got their name from the novel Fight Club.

Anyone like this band? Wonderland and everything earlier was great. Kind of wish they didn't go with Razia Musical album and then disband, I could never get into it. I still listen to them though, they have some great songs.

 

Love this band, and the Casey Bates podcasts are fantastic too.

Wonderland is somehow still underrated and while I couldn't really understand Razia's Shadow when I was younger, I've really come to realize just how great it is.

 

Wonderland is still one of my favorite records ever. Always felt like a more fleshed out version of Gatsbys to me. I think it's a scene classic.

 

used to love razia's, one of my old favorites, cheesy as hell now though

...probably would see a stage production version of it for the nostalgia though

 

always was cheesy as hell, but damn, it wouldn't even have to be a stage production for me to want to go see it live again

 

that's the only realistic way to get everything well though

 

Both albums are great, seeing Razia live with many of the guest vocalists on stage was really something special.

I talked to Thomas at a Carly Rae show when his band Cardiknox was opening for her and we talked about Forgive Durden for a while, he was a really good dude and happy to talk about the band and the scene, etc

 

listening to Razias Shadow because im EMO TRASH but yeah this album slaps

 

Dunno where else to post this, but his band Cardiknox broke up

Hmmm sorry to hear that

 

WHAT A BUMP!!!

did cardiknox ever do anything besides a few singles?

 

Yeah, they had a full album!

 

That's unfortunate, sounds like a good time to revive Forgive Durden though!

 

only if they bring back the gatsbys american dream revival sound

 

I wish that Gatsby reunion kept going

 

Saaaaaaaame

 

What I really wish would happen is more Money Pit, that album was so much fun.

 

They say there's a second album but I dunno until I hear it

 

This band randomly came up on a date and I listened to razias shadow again, which I think I like a lot more now than I remember. I never really gave it a shot in the past with it being for a play or whatever

 

So I just re-listened to Wonderland and it's just baffling to me that album doesn't have a bigger following. It's catchy as fuck and seems like it would've had a broader appeal. "For a Dreamer, Night's the Only Time of Day" is one of the best pop rock songs of the last fifteen years.

 

I like a lot of the other stuff too which isn't even on a lot of the steaming sites, I don't get it either

 

Do you have the EPs?

 

Yeah bandages and royalty and when you're alone, I have the downloaded mp3s

 

Oh mannnn I forgot about when you’re alone.

 

Can you pm them to me please? Honestly have been looking for them for years. Used to have them on my high school computer lol
