Post subject:  Trophy Scars appreciation thread
Hated their singer when I first heard them two or three years ago, but they've grown and grown and grown on me and for the last month or two they've definitely been my favourite band. Very personal, thought out lyrics (sometimes flawed and immature but makes up for it by being amazing in other places); great harmonies from the vocals and the two guitars + piano; groovy drummer; intense end-of-the-world hardcore/metalcore breakdowns and shit. Anyone else heard them?

I thought so too at first but they've been around since before No Heroes. There's a Converge poster in one of the videos I posted though.

Their new EP leaked and Sad Stanley is one of the best songs I've heard. The intro is haunting and beautiful too.

Secondly- Join Trophy Scars for an intimate, live DVD taping of new and classic material rearranged specially just for this show. The 90 minute performance will also include songs never performed live and songs from the upcoming Never Born, Never Dead EP. Trophy Scars will be accompanied by a string and brass section as well as other guest musicians and singers.
***LIMITED TO 100 people and it WILL SELL OUT****


Exciting!

Also love how these dudes can write a mean melody even though Jerry's vocals are fairly gruff and not sing songy most of the time.

GONNA KEEP TALKING TO MYSELF because new EP is out and I've listened to it twice.

First Impressions: The piano solo in Snake Oil gets the tingles going big time. Never Dead is a very great and happy and also terribly sad song. EP as a whole is continuing in their progression away from hardcore towards blues.

I'm paying attention. Trophy Scars is so good, imma get this. My fave is Alphabet. Alphabets. but I love everything they've done.

I has a sad, though: apparently Jerry is moving to LA (away from the rest of the band) and they're playing their last show for a rly long time. Effectively going on hiatus :(
