Actually There first album was a EP called A not so Tragic coverup. I beleave it was released from Mono vs Stereo. It was ok but no where near the chaotic bliss on ICTA which IMO was a excellent Cd.

Yeah, but that was an EP, so it doesn't really count. I figured you meant full-lengths here.

"Lost in Reverie" - Peccatum
"Terminate Damnation" - Becoming the Archetype
"Where Lovers Mourn" - Draconian

I really like Flyleaf's debute CD. They're not the most orignal band out there, but they're one of the cleanest bands in the genre--and I love girl-fronted rock bands. XD

Emery-The Weaks End...The Question was nowhere near as good, in my opinion.

I'd say they were about the same...But "The Weaks End" is definately an awesome CD.

I am not much of an Emery fan they depress me

Much agreed. The Question gets a worse wrap than it deserves. Some of the songs on it are quite excellent.

Kkun wrote:Some of the songs on it are quite excellent.

Yes there is one song on that cd i do like and thats Listening to freddy mercury

They don't depress me, but I don't let my music affect me much. But I'm glad that most everyone here likes them as much as I do.

red- end of silence. reminds me of chevelle and I love anything with violins and guitars...

I'm a pretty big fan of Emery...And Red isn't to bad either.

The Human Abstracts : Nocturne

This band put out one of the best cds of 06 so far

Oh I finally thought of one^^ Mobile - Tomorrow Starts Today. Wouldnt' be surprised if now one's heard of Mobile, since they're a Canadian band (not that other popular people aren't known, but this is one that I wouldn't be surprised with...) Awsome CD^^ Just haven't really had much time to listen to it lately. Aww I voice bouncyt-ype music like the such^^

EDIT: Aw pooey^^ Thought it would end up being a 100% clean secular band, but they just HAD slip in an eff in there :/ *sigh* Is it really neccessary?^^

Becoming The Archetype-Terminate Damnation
Extol-Undecieved
Beloved-Failure On
