Re: Happy Body Slow Brain (ex Facing New York, Taking Back Sunday)

Yeah IDK. I think Eric lives down in LA and I think the other two are still up here. Last real news I heard was that they are indeed working on new stuff, from the RXB guys who are friends of theirs, but that was also about a year ago.

Cannot wait fer this to be released on vinyl!

Also just because I brought up Facing New York in every post of mine so far in this thread I'll keep it goin'. So I know I saw some social media activity very sporadically over the years, but their Wikipedia has said fer over a year that a new album was bein' worked on/recorded. Anybody know anythin'?

Hell of a guest list on this one. Steve Choi, Gavin Castleton, Geuting.

Yeah it wasn't anything mindblowing, they just did a short set of mostly Get Hot songs. Did have a new guitarist though.

Dig their sound and all, but it still ain't no FNY. Still hate that I'm poor as hell and missed FNY open fer dredg last year I think it was. That would've just been awesome.

They're apparently doing these videos for every song on the album.

I've got a few random live videos I haven't gotten around to editing. Mostly from around 2006-2007 I think.

Re: Happy Body Slow Brain (ex Facing New York, Taking Back Sunday)

I never got to hear the stuff live. Only time I got to catch them was back in November 2006 on tour with Gavin Castleton on keys. Great show though.
The songs on Get Hot just really strike a chord with me. Hell, all their music does. You don't happen to have any bootleg recordings do you?

Re: Happy Body Slow Brain (ex Facing New York, Taking Back Sunday)

get hot was pretty disappointing to me. probably cause they changed the songs a lot after they started playing them live and i preferred the original versions.

Re: Happy Body Slow Brain (ex Facing New York, Taking Back Sunday)

I like it more than Get Hot but less than the rest of FNY's stuff.

Blasphemy!

I like it more than Get Hot but less than the rest of FNY's stuff. No idea on the release formats.

Re: Happy Body Slow Brain (ex Facing New York, Taking Back Sunday)

I'm likin' it so far, but it sure ain't no FNY. You know if this will be a stupid digital only release or might they release it on CD/vinyl too?
