The Contortionist Retrospective Live 1 and 2

These are both absolutely phenomenal!!! Just like the rest of you I cannot wait for their next album whenever we may get it. Literally one of my favorite bands ever. My band even got to be the local opener for them back in the day and it’s a moment i will never forget. I would give these live efforts a 10/10 but my only minor gripe is that Michael’s screams/heavy vocals
on the older songs originally with Carpenter as the vocalist just don’t hit the same. They sound weaker and too high pitched if that makes sense? Granted its live and I’m sure they’re trying to do something different. Lessard’s singing/clean vocals are so fucking good though that it damn near makes up for it so with that said I give it a 9.5/10

Looking for auto shop recommendations

Hello all, I need to get my front brake pads and rotors replaced on my Toyota RAV4. Looking for a place with good customer service and won’t rip me off or cost me an arm and a leg, I know it’s not gonna “cheap” wherever I go but I’m just trying to weigh my options here. I appreciate any feedback, thank you.

Curious if you guys consider Dance Gavin Dance as a Prog band?

I’ve been listening to them a lot lately. I love this band but I’m having a hard time putting them into a genre. I keep coming back to Prog. They have a huge discography too and I feel like every album they progress more. Especially the latter half. Not all of their songs I would consider progy but still a lot of them. The guitar and drum work is all over the place at times, the bass has some sick stand alone licks at times too. They have a lot of time changes and transitions that come out of nowhere. They remind me if like Protest the Hero and Circa Survive had a baby lol. Don’t get me wrong they’re not as prog as BTBAM or Haken but they still fuck around with a lot a different sounds. Anyways, just curious if anyone else here likes them and your thoughts. If you’ve never listened to them before I would say check out the albums Afterburner and Mothership.
