Million Dead (lyrics, hardcore, albums, fan, title)

Ok, these guys are partly post-hardcore, so I figured Id put them in here.

Very very good band. And after seeing them live, I love them even more. There was so much energy, and everything was perfect. They should get a lot more credit than they do right now, I think. So, Ima trying to get them some more listeners. If you ever get a chance, definately go and see them. If not, just pick up Harmony No Harmony, their latest album. A Song To Ruin was also really great.. Hmm, yeah s'about it.

Post away.. Opinions and such. Favourite album and whatnot.

I liked them a few years back and I saw them live supporting Funeral For a Friend. I'm not really into them much anymore though, I'm not a massive fan of the vocals and the lyrics seem to get a bit overly complicated at times and it comes across as a bit pretentious.

Pretentious? No, I think he's just a li'l weird. Well, the lyrics can be anyway. Some of the newer stuff isnt quite as hard to read as the older though. Half the time he admits to not knowing what the hell he's writing about anyway.

As fer the vocals... I love them. He can vary what he does with his voice, as all good vocalists can.. Good band on the whole really. Cant think of anything that bugs me in the slightest about them.

Man, I got really worried when I saw the title of this thread, cuz I thought, for some unknown reason, was about the bombings in London. WHEW!!!! Thank God its the name of a hardcore band!!!!!!!

Therefore, the upcoming September tour will be our last.

We’d like to express our deep gratitude to those who worked with and for us over the years, who had faith in us, and without whom we would never have got anywhere. We’d also like to thank all those who bought records, came to shows, and generally gave a ****. We’re still pleasantly surprised that anyone ever did.

You will no doubt be hearing from some or all of us again at some point in the future."

*Sniff* They cant do this to me
