I was surprised when Sherri said that they'll begin recording the next album in January. Anyone else?


not so much suprised as i was blissfully happy.


is this old news?
new to me, but i would expect it'd be more talked about if it was new.

p.s. to go with the time signature discussion, tell me what time this would be:

ONE two three ONE two three ONE two


that be 3/4.

tree tops is in 3/4.


i thought 3/4 was
ONE two three ONE two three ONE two three

notice my rhythm stops on two and returns to ONE, so there's a three missing.


yeah, hisownshot is right, it would be 5/4. i didnt realize the ONE's were accents. i thought you were just repeating the ONE two three's.

or, it could be 8/8. i think. (that's a time signature, right? yeah...) again, depending on the tempo. Smile i love this music talk stuff.

OR... does it go ONE two three FOUR five six ONE TWO... ? are the ONE TWO longer notes? if so, then it'd be 6/8 switching to 2/4. that would be cool too.

i asked this before, but are the ONE's the accents?

I like the song...






after they're done playing and they walk off what is it?





no really I've been listening to this like the whole night. Chauntelle can make a super catchy guitar part.

it's too bad Sherri lost her eyes.

This gave me the chills, it was so super amazing. I loved Room Noises, but this second album looks like it could be even better, =D

And that definitely sounds like 6/8 time (or 3/4, they are pretty much the same)

I think what throws you off is Weston on the snare drum. Is is just not playing the standard on beat 4 of 6. But yeah, it defintely plays like 6/8.

I tried to decipher more of the lyrics- but failed miserably.
Maybe Sherri will see our suffering and help us out a little bit.

yeah, i meant the all capatilized beats to be the accents.
that's pretty neat that i unintentionally wrote something in a weird time signature. still don't think i could write something with as odd a time sig. as Pyramid Song though.

My piano teacher gave me a song in 6/8 a while ago, and I'm having the hardest time getting the timing right.

I don't understand time signature at all.

I've been playing the violin for about 6 years and I'm still dismal at counting...
but the song is amazing! I'm already singing it to myself constantly.

ok, heres what a friend and i came up with for lyrics...

bring along your tricks and trade
we will lie here, here we lay
and though the ship is out to sea
i'm content to lie peacefully

and all the dead were seaside born
my parents death did not here mourn
my pride unbound by hades prayer
to raise my cupped hand for a whirl
ooh, ahh, ooh

oh and now we have no chances
we fill the empty caskets
and leave you with your tears
and though, now we take no chances
we'll only take our chances
before our lives end too
ohhh

and how could you
have left us here
you had friends
you had us
goodbye....


[edit]
ok, i think this is right now. mostly...
