Let's get this out of the way: I liked A Static Lullaby's And Don't Forget To Breathe. I liked it a lot. It doesn't get much play around these parts nowadays, but when it was first released two years ago, it came across to me as a much more intense, refreshing approach to the screaming trend, for lack of a better analogy, a trend of which was only beginning to pick up momentum at the time. So perhaps there's a little more ground in that sense in saying that Faso Latido, the band's major label debut, is a flat-out aural punishment.

one of the top 10 worst cd's ive ever heard...yes, even worse than parkway drive. i really liked this cd alot,the new self titled stuff sounds way better 2 I really liked their first album. This cd sucks. I am listeing to it right now... Why don't I just stop? aargh ahhah this album sucks and they know it, when people were joking around in concert saying "play stand up" the vocalist look at him and said no, thats not going to be happening any time soon. i must say that they did play "New Noise" by Refused at one point in that show, so i couldnt hate them. Love this band! This album wasnt as good as the first! The first one rocked my face off! I'd say it's decent enough. It's a bit too popy for my tastes at times but they get the point across. I'd say it's good enough. First off I think this CD is great... they are good to me both cds i dont care to justify what i like and what i dont like....this cd just has catchy songs on it..i can see why ppl dont like stand up but idk or care this cd is sick Hey EVERYBODY!! Go buy the new LoveHateHero CD today!! It's in stores now!!! They will be on tour with FFAF and ASL in December '05!!!The CD ROCKS!!! "And dont forget to breath" was a beautifully crafted album, and when they play songs from it live kids go wild.... I have to say I enjoy this album. Ok .... Alot of you are fucking morons] who know nothing of art .... This cd isnt great i'll give you that but there first cd is fucking awsome. Okay but not the best they could've done... DSL mais toute vos commentaires ces vraiment pourris. Ouvrez donc vos oreilles et écouté donc les sentiments a travers la musique mais vous êtes surement trop cave pour comprendre ca avec le genre de commentaire que vous laissez. Don't Give Up Guys this is a great album. ...and don't forget to breathe was way better than faso latido but I still liked it. Dear A Static Lullaby, When I saw these guys live at ToC they were really good, one of the best bands playing. They played mostly old stuff, I think one new song, which, of course, was Stand Up. But otherwise I thought they rocked live. *shrug* Oh well. I can't believe anyone is even arguing that the first album was even good...did you forget about the terrible high-school heartbreak lyrics? "Take this blade to my wrist and help me end what makes you ugly" ...wow. just amazing. not. totally agreed. this album and this band suck(s). do ra me? a little PHRYGIAN going on? Shitty band, shitty history, shitty everything. Fuck this, and soyou know, this band isn't "Screamo". Screamo is bands like pg. 99, neil perry, hot cross, etc. This is emocore faggot bullshit with no fucking real style or unique flavor. Fuck any band like this. but the cover art is so beautiful! it cant be thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat bad. actually, im sure it is marlon - think of a musical scale... do-re-mi-[fa-so-la-ti-do]. read into that what you will. If people who thought the first album was good think this one sucks, this must be the worst album of the year. why didn't you? pussy i remember seeing this band at krazy fest in 2003 and no one liked them or was moving at all, and their singer kept saying "hey guys! it's krazy fest! why aren't you getting krazy?!?" and i kept wanting to yell "no one's getting 'krazy' because your band fucking sucks! please drink bleach and die!" What does Faso Latido mean? This band WAS ALWAYS SHITTY. So what if their last album had screaming on it? Woo-fucking-hoo, it was all this bullshit about crying and slitting wrists over girls. Wha wha what. The music was pretty formulaic sing/scream shit that every other trendy "screamo" has done too. Here's the list of all the monsters in Shining Force II, including HPs, MPs, stats, & spells! I'm glad someone else saw the Taste of Chaos tree in there too. I given this album about 15 spins hoping it will grow on me. It didn't. This album blows. i saw this band open for someone in '02 or '03. that was the worst musical experience of my life. my goodness they blow. maybe if they didn't have a singer they wouuld have been less annoying and i would just ignore them instead of going out of my way to say that they suck. I was a really big fan of A Static Lullaby when they were playing music from And don't forget to breath but the new CD is very disappoiting. I remember the good days when Joe actually was in most of the songs. The vocals suck now and are way to popy and i regret to say i still own a shirt with their name on it. I will continue to play and don't forget to breath for myself and faso latido will be used to put my little brother to sleep. Markie, yeah, that was the Richmond show. The crowd had a pretty fucking blah-zay attitude towards the Arms. fuck. score didnt register. see previous comment. this score is for the guy who keeps posting the NUFAN advertisement in every thread. i found their last cd to be a pretty rocking guilty pleasure. this is just shit. my mom taking a shit is better sounding then this fucking joke. This band blows. Fuck this fucking band. No Use For A Name 's new album, Keep Them Confused, comes out on June 18th. It will contain 13 dark, aggressive new songs (two of which were originally written in the Making Friends era). Prepare to be rocked. Motherfuck these guys. I've heard and even kinda like some lame emo/screamo bands out there, but this group takes the cake for "most cheesiest" and "milking the screamo look to the next level". sickboi, did you see this shit in richmond? remember the screamy guy pulled his back or something and had to stand still? too bad they didn't just give up and give the arms a second set instead. ...Fuck you brian. I'm glad I didn't buy this cd. below me: rip it in windows media or something. or kill yourself. youre welcome! so i have this cd and im trying to put it on my ipod but it has some protective thing where the cd wont work if i have itunes open anyone know how to beat this security? I stopped reading after the first 2 sentences. Regardless of the score. Fuck you brian. I too saw them open for Hot Water Music but in my case, half of the people in the audience were there to see A Static lullaby and after they played, they left! This band was never good. To the guy below.....I hear you. I remember seeing these guys open for Hot Water Music. I'm not really sure why they were on the tour. Lawrence Arms played BEFORE a Static Lullaby, which is damn dirty shame. Anyways, when these guys played everybody just stood there watching them, not one person moved the entire time. At the end of their set the "screamer" said "I don't know whats wrong, I'm doing the screamy thing.". They looked like idiots, I enjoyed it very much. Anywho, what does the "screamer" guy do if they don't really use him that much? this band was ALWAYS bad. their first album was bland, copycat sing/scream bullshit, and this is bland, copycat radio rock. their cover art is quite nice. if only they became inspired by the cover art then maybe they could make some mediocre to bad music instead of this shitstorm. Stealing from the Taste of Chaos tree! Bastards! |
