Fuckin' a! I can't stop listening to their cds. The 1st cd, I listened to death. Got the second cd years ago and wasn't too keen on it and started listening to it again and fucking love it! And the third cd is, once again, an accomplishment. The third did sound a little bit too much like Tantric for me, which I wasn't too fond of, mainly because I think Travis should have just stuck with the acoustic bit (even though Tantric has a couple ok songs). But nonetheless, I though there were a few songs on the third album that absolutely rock. Anyone else fans of this kickass - and needs a comeback - band?

Definitely a fan. That song they did for The Crow Salvation is fuckin' awesome.

Yeah they were good. Liked their style of music. I even liked Tantric.

My favorite band until recently Porcupine Tree took over that spot.

They are heading in a very ochestral-prog sound now (reminiscent of some cuts off their 2nd and 3rd cd with songs like "Dirty Road" and "Dancing With the Wind") but apparently trying to retain some of the sound from their first album, "Orange".

Travis Meeks is a helluva guitar player and vocalist...its just a shame what meth did to him. He was on top of the world and now he's doing shows for 100 fans or less on occasion.

Hopefully they can get big again (though unlikely the way their music is progressing - as far as it being non mainstream)

The first album is okay, but this was always a derivative band. It's nothing that really grabs me.
