Maybe they are more popular than I thought... lol, I guess I just thought that since people here mostly post about indie, electronic or metal bands, they might not know about TCV? And by 'obvious and popular', I meant relative to what I've seen posted here, e.g. Crystal Castles, Arcade Fire, Deerhunter, and Vampire Weekend.what
Yep, nothing after Menos el Oso. I can't stand what they've become.Minus the Bear is a cool indie rock band with some math rock elements (mostly in their earlier stuff, though). The instruments in their songs are very well-done and their overall arrangements are great. Some good ones by them are "Knights", "Pachuca Sunrise", "Fine + 2 Pts", and "Dog Park".
Really? I quite enjoyed Planet of Ice and I thought that Omni was at least decent. Then again, my musical tastes change every few months; maybe I'll appreciate their older stuff more in time.Yep, nothing after Menos el Oso. I can't stand what they've become.
It's probably different for me because I started with that early stuff and watched the progression from five regular guys playing fucking awesome, finger-tapping riffs/songs to the current iteration of full-blown tight-jeaned, hipster-bearded electronica/pop-rock hybrid. Makes me want to puke.Really? I quite enjoyed Planet of Ice and I thought that Omni was at least decent.

I think the people that like Sillet use this tidbit as a crutch to justify why no one else likes them instead of admitting they have flawsSkillet. Usually dismissed by the mainstream crowd because of their "Christian Rock" label
I'm sorry, I really didn't want to say anything about what other people post in this thread. But what the fuck. I Set My Friends on Fire is NOT True Screamo.I completely love I Set My Friends On Fire, one of the few true screamo bands left today.
