THE STRANGE HISTORY OF SAOSIN

Музыка

I talk about how Saosin changed the post-hardcore game with their EP "Translating The Name" and their debut self-titled album.
- Why Saosin's version of post-hardcore/screamo caught on and inspired bands like From First To Last, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, and Drop Dead Gorgeous among many, many others
- How Anthony Green's vocals and charisma were key (and how he compares to Cove Reber), along with the addition of Justin Shekoski on guitar and Alex Rodriguez on drums
- How Beau Burchell came up with his vision of combining 90s emo like Mineral and Sunny Day Real Estate with fast, chaotic drums and metalcore riffs
- Why bands like Finch, From Autumn To Ashes, or A Static Lullaby were earlier but didn't catch on like Saosin did
- Why they deserve more credit for being early to vlogging (SaoTV) and social media (Friendster) thanks to Chris Sorenson

A quick Google search will fill in most of the blanks for you if you don't. Also, the bands (and members) have apologized/made up & even performed together since the beef. Rehashing that is just drama for the sake of drama at this point and im pretty sure you can find other videos about the topic on KZread.

TOCS's drums are more tame and it's less "metal" overall (just more screaming). UO really hit their stride with the post-hardcore/metalcore combo on Define The Great Line. UO were influential in their own right, just think in a couple different conversations.

    I think Circa Survive's success can be attributed to Anthony's connection with the audience, music, lyrics, etc. (along with the rest of the band being wildly talented). He really is a special type of frontman. Got to meet them in Cleveland earlier this month, awesome guys. Definitely check out the new album with Anthony back if you haven't already. It's a great mixture of his vocal maturity with Circa and amazing Beau riffs.

    Ryndan Riley I agree a bit with you, he struggles a mad ton, more than a lot of vocalists I’ve seen, some may even go as far to say that he’s completely lost it recently, although he performs there new album pretty much on point, just can’t really do the same for their past stuff. In a way, I could say that(even this is a stretch) that his voice itself may be replaceable and the least special in the band, but he’s definitely still the most irreplaceable frontman/presence a band could have. There’s just something about him, especially if your their in front of him, even if he’s yelling lines he used to sing so angelically, there’s just this immediate and intimate connection that most of us fans keep coming back for. He’s truly a powerful person. Being backed by the most amazing bands.

    Their EP changed so much man, it combined metal riffs with hardcore and emo and literally every musician I knew (including myself) were trying HARD to emulate this. Other bands that you mentioned caught my attention and I became a fan of a few of them, but everyone I knew including myself keeps going back to that EP.

    Of course you have a Saosin Translating the Name video. As if I couldn't love your content any more than I did, I saw this recommendation and was stoked. This band has impacted my taste in music so much to this day. I still play that EP a couple times every few weeks.. also tack on Mookies Last Christmas and the OG I Can Tell There Was an Accident Here Earlier. Just as an edit, I was never a big fan of Cove, but a show they did recently where Anthony AND Cove were singing on the same stage.. that moment totally changed my mind. I thought they sounded so stellar together and really wish they would put out some tunes with both vocalists!

    Bro, THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU so much for making this video, I will watch it over and over... I just love Saosin SO much, particularly TTN and their eponymous full-length. I remember the first time I heard TTN, someone had it on in the background while they were doing stuff and I was just passing through the room doing laundry, and the sound of Saosin stopped me in my tracks, I felt like this was the sound I'd been waiting my whole life to hear... Downloaded the new album (which at the time was Saosin) pronto and have been truly in love with it ever since. I don't listen to that early stuff often as I've given it hundreds of listens, and now I save it for when I really need it, when I'm upset and need comfort I stick on Saosin or Iowa by SlipKnoT. Saosin the album ranks up there for me as one of the greatest albums of all time; it's not easy to get Saosin stuff in Australia, but I've got the album, the special edition of the album, the LP, the Come Close DVD, and a for radio release of Sleepers (also heaps of stickers, a big-ass poster and a zip-through hoodie). Again, thank you so very much for a video espousing the importance of Saosin and again I loved your one on how Slipknot got so big, you make really amazing clips bro, you're a f@#king legend...

    "Sleepers" was my very first impression of Saosin, so it's always been difficult for me to go back to Translating The Name. The self-title sounds tighter and less experimental in it's execution which is why I see it as their defining album. Regardless, this is a great video discussing their history and success.

    Hell yeah! Never see anyone mention A Static Lullaby any more! And shoutout to SKSK, AZ REPRESENT!! Great video. Just wanted to emphasize how much Saosin are the reason any of the bands after exist, be it Pierce the Veil, Dance Gavin Dance, Sleeping With Sirens or Hail the Sun. Without Translating the Name, none of it happens! And as a drummer, I'm so glad you made the connection about the busy screamo drumming. I hadn't consciously made that connection but you're so right! They're the reason that risecore bands like Sleeping With Sirens, Woe Is Me, and Hands Like Houses still have that crazy over the top too-many-notes drumming style 😂 and even all these "swancore" bands as they're called, though a good chunk of them could be names Saosincore! Hail The Sun sound like a carbon copy of them sometimes, and then bands like Makari and In Angles are heavily indebted to both Saosin and Circa Survive. The influence here is nye immeasurable!

    Was watching a video yesterday where you said you can only be 3 years ahead of the game, more and you’re screwed. Anyone remember finch’s 2nd album say hello to sunshine? That is one example of how being too far ahead in the future screws your whole band Edit: it’s a way better album but fans just couldn’t deal with it

    I rediscovered "Say Hello to Sunshine" the other week - it's still fucking amazing and yep, way better than their debut, but you're spot on with this point.

    I honestly never got why their fans despised that album, it was amazing. Same with their 2014 album which I feel didn't get any attention at all.
