Re: The Official "City and Colour" Thread

^That is true. I listened to them more close together than you have done. I'm sure throughout more listens with time, i'll notice some different aspects than I do right now with the albums.

Speaking of Alexisonfire though I wouldn't mind if Dallas did another C & C styled cover of that material. "Happiness By The Kilowatt" is my all time favorite of his and "Boiled Frogs" was great as well! :grinthumb

Oh man, hearing the name Boiled Frogs just brings back memories. First time I heard it was back in either middle school, or high school. can't remember which, but I remember having it as my profile song on myspace for the longest time.

I believe I did. I was also looking up my other favorite of alex's, which is Rough Hands, and I glanced at the acoustic version of Boiled Frogs. So I added it to my youtube queue to listen to it.

Time for a much needed bump.

I've grown to strengthen my opinion about Dallas Green that everything he creates in the music world is gold, both with City & Colour and Alexisonfire. I've given both bands a very good listen and they wouldn't be what they are today if Dallas Green wasn't involved, Alexisonfire more than C&C though, because Alexisonfire has more members involved as far as i'm aware. Dallas Green is a genius when it comes to lyrical structure and musical ability.

agreed! :grinthumb i really don't think he could ever make anything bad haha... even if there were no instruments and it was just his voice it would be beautiful!


so i was just listening to this song-

and it gave me chills... i don't know what it is, it's the same kind of chills i get when i listen to some Neil Young songs. it's got some kind of a melancholy/gloomy sound to it. i don't know lol. but it's great, it's great.

Following a huge response, (demand from City And Colour’s Sydney fans has been so huge) that a new show has been added to the 14th May. There is another C & C show the following night too! :grinthumb
