The Showdown - Temptation Come My Way

[Kkun]

Has anyone listened to the stuff on their MySpace page? I hated it at first, but now I'm kind of enthralled with it. It feels like Pantera or something. It's totally different from A Chorus of Obliteration, which I loved dearly, but I think Temptation Come My Way is going to be good. I wish they'd put Breath of the Swamp back up. That song is totally awesome.

[Zilch]

I'm highly impressed with their new stuff, and the fact that they'd almost completely change their vocal style after just one album. If your head doesn't automatically want to bang, I think you have problem.

[Kkun]

See, it's just that usually I hate that kind of music but boy is it good when The Showdown does it. I really, really like it.

[Knives]

I don't care much for it....
I am disappointed with the direction they've taken.
Maybe it will grow on me.

This album is gonna be good stuff. Much better than their old sound

Noooooo way. A Chorus of Obliteration is an amazing CD. I think it'll be good, though.

So I got "A Chorus Of Obliteration" for a very low price...And I gotta say I honestly only listen to that CD if I want to have a good laugh. The new sound is ok. Though I don't think that I could ever listen to any of their CD's besides for a chuckle.

I...don't get that...A Chorus of Obliteration is totally awesome. I mean, yeah, it's almost like a self-conscious metal parody but it's just really fun to listen to.

[That Dude]

I don't know...I just could never get into it. Though I agree with the parody part.

[Zilch]

The Showdown basically makes fun of itself, yeah, but if you think about the people in the metal/hardcore scene, they kinda make fun of themselves anyway, so it's more of a observation thrown into a band. And it's flipping awesome.

[That Dude]

That's cool. And I can see that they are definately talented but I just can't see how they are awesome. Anyway on with the discussion about the new CD.

[Zilch]

Breath of the Swamp needs to pop out on iTunes. If they slowly release the album over the next 2 weeks, I'll be happy.

For now, and impersonation of The Showdown's lead singer live:



No, seriously, he does it ALL THE TIME. Now that's flipping metal...uh...kinda...

It's just 'cause you're not from the South, that's all. You wouldn't understand sweet tea, either. Of course, now that I think of that, Zilch isn't from the South, but whatevs.

The new CD is gonna be totally high voltage, y'all.
