New Roadrunner Records signings, Alexisonfire are all set to co-headline the 2009 Eastpak Antidote Tour with Anti-Flag this coming October. Fiddly-fingered progressive emos, The Fall Of Troy and our favourite British band at the moment, The Ghost Of A Thousand are in support.

Sorry for the hiatus on Songs of the Week; I was home over Thanksgiving with no internet, and since then I've been absolutely swamped with finals. But it's okay, I'm back. Somehow, I think the world went on just fine without me. *** songs of the week # 1. Pogo - Digitalism (So relaxing, so laidback, so...addicting) 2. Chapter I: Introverting Dimensions - The Fall Of Troy (Out of the three Ghostship tracks to appear on November's Phantom On The Horizon , this [...]
2008 Equal Vision Records Buy 7/10 Phantom On The Horizon was supposed to be The Fall of Troy 's magnum opus. It was supposed to be the definitive post-hardcore release of 2008. It was supposed to be Illmatic , Ready To Die , London Calling , Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Silence . It was supposed to be. But somewhere, between the heart and the synapse, something was lost. [...]

I'm kind of picky about what I'll be attending this week. It looks as though Subtle at the Independent has my attention so far. However seeing Audrye Sessions and Cold War Kids would be nice. Too bad I have this full time job I have to keep up with. Anyway, if you're going to the KITS LIVE 105's NSSN 08 or the Pre-Party show (click the picture for tickets), try to make the local band showcase and check out Picture Atlantic and Dizzy Balloon at the ol' Cafe du Nord. [...]
The Fall of Troy have made up for everything that was wrong with Manipulator . The Mulkiteo, WA trio are back with the Phantom on the Horizon , a five-track EP revolving around a story that his been brewing in the band's mind for many years. This effort is different from anything the band has done before - rather than release a mini-collection of individual songs, Phantom on the Horizon is more like one "flowing" song divided into multiple tracks. I use the word "flowing" hesitantly because, if you're at all familiar with the band, you [...]
The Fall of Troy , The Number 12 Looks Like You and God Is An Astronaut are gracing my hometown tomorrow night at Downtown Brew. Admittedly, I'm not the biggest fan of any of them, but they've all piqued my interest at times. Maybe this will be the turning-point show that makes a fan out of me. It's probably a stretch, but is anyone gonna be there? Come say hi. And to be a bit more realistic: who's hitting up any of their west coast shows? The rest [...]

Fall of Troy - Phantom on the Horizon Release date: Nov. 28, 2008 [ preorder ] The guileless human must have been taken to consumption to be in such grave error. A consort — much less a female one — is not required for the Dread Cthulhu's awakening and subsequent subjugation of earth and all living things on it. As a reward for her insolence, she will be blessed by this star-spawn of the Old One with infernal visions of the coming apocalypse upon slumber, and she will be granted [...]

Two things. One: I always pin animals to people. Recently, Katie brought up that one of our schoolmates looks like a praying mantis. This is a very accurate description of him. Anyway, it brought me back to the age-old question: What animal do I look like? And just now, I thought, "Damn it anyway, I'm a fucking [...]

Manipulator is de derde cd van het uit de staat Washington afkomstige post-hardcore trio The Fall Of Troy. Das best veul al voor een stelletje jochies dat net de twintig gepasseerd is. Zeker gezien het technisch gezien absurd hoge niveau...
Bizar dat die knaapjes nog maar net de twintig voorbij zijn en al drie doldwaze post-hardcore albums op hun conto hebben staan. " Semi-Fiction " is overigens nog redelijk normaal.
Finally settling down into classes, with tons of new (and old) music! The blog has come a long, long, LONG way since we first started a while back. I case yall didn't notice we're actually listed on Andrew W.K. 's official website which of course is a great honor to us. We'd love to see more comments though, to get some encouragement to keep on going (like we have any intentions on stopping), sit back and get ready for another Thursday of Thirst... err.... Thirsty Thursdays. The Fall of Troy was a big inspiration [...]
While the music industry tries to grab harder on the wet, breaking branch of its current royalty system, artists are seeking ways to strengthen their grip on their own careers. Like it or not, the music labels are losing the hold they once had. Whether the issue is deciding who pays (and how much) for song royalties, who controls album distribution, or who's allowed to see live music, record labels, distributors, artists and fans are still trying to figure out what end of the stick they're holding. Most recently, the artist currently known as Prince is [...]
i am a music dork, unapologetically so...it is never ending, and my mother ship has called me home. last.fm is now my favorite social networking site (myspace be damned, for me its like mixing business and pleasure now), head and shoulders above the rest. based solely on music, this network aims to bring people of the same musical taste together and through those connections, help you discover new music. it's absolutely brilliant. there's a lot to it and is probably best discovered on your own, but if you have any questions please ask. as stated previously, i'm a [...]
