I love long albums though. Coheed & Cambria's CDs have been 48, 69, 71, and 60 minutes. I think 45 minutes is a good time for a CD. I'm definitely not complaining about their longer albums though because they are long because the songs are epic. Haha. I would love for Eisley to put out a 45-50 minute CD. Room Noises was almost there. _________________ "I shall take the heart," returned the Tin Woodsman; "for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world." |

That island song rules though. I think it's track two. RAwk. |

Billy Corgan (during SP time anyway) and Stephen Malkmus seem to have at least one long song on each of their albums. here the last two days i've been revisiting Combinations and the title track and If You're Wondering are really blowing my mind. _________________ I am Torgo.

I hope they get in the studio. It's time for the masterpiece. They have it in them and coming off the road should have them full of piss and vinegar (can we say that here?). Look out Grammys...although they'll probably get "Best New Artist"...lol _________________ Something's not right... |

I would love for them to somehow have the third album a mixture of their first two. Go back to their roots lyrically while keeping a new sound while ofcourse talking about their recent life and such. And more Chauntelle input would be lovely. |

i just thought about these new lyrics Sherri posted on her flickr a few months ago - could be in the running for LP 3. i don't remember there being any more pics with lyrics on them:  _________________ I am Torgo. I take care of the place while the Master is away. |

Oh I'm so sorry. I forgot about that commercial I just saw WB airing for Combinations. Or that magazine ad promoting the album in Spin/Rolling Stone/Paste/Alternative Press. Or the cross-promotion with any of WB's other media vehicles. Or the visible displays of the album in Best Buy or Wal-Mart. Or all the singles they pushed to the radio or MTV. Or the great tours they put them on with bands of a similar sound, following, or target audience. Oh no wait, none of that stuff happened, and Eisley paid for their last tour out of pocket. So WB can "care" all they want, but unless they shell out the dough or resources to promote the band, it doesn't mean a damn thing. _________________ EvilSpace |

i'm pretty sure they were in Paste and they were in AP multiple times but i agree that WB isn't giving a huge push. |

I guess Combinations is tapped out as far as WB is concerned and the band took a pretty long break before this tour and so I guess the next step is hittin the studio. My guess is that they are going to hook up with Coldplay and probably tour with them again.........I think..  _________________ TRUCK STOP SHOWER GIFT CERTIFICATES FOR EISLEY!!!! COME ON! |
