Earshot. Anyone else dig em?

Blood Tempest · 04-11-2008, 10:12 PM

I've been listening to these guys for a long time now. Really dig their stuff. It's not teh br00tulz, but its some damn good heavier rock. New album in the works too

Anyone else into them? Here's some vids...

Earshot - "Not Afraid"

Earshot - "Wait"

Actually I've been a fan since they first came out. I dig them, great singer and rounded sound. I used to think they sounded like TOOL, but later on "two" they diversified themselves. I am also waiting for the new cd.

Korbain · 04-12-2008, 12:39 AM

have heard a few of there songs. They got some pretty awsome stuff. I agree on the sounding like tool thing, more so the singer. But still, good music

i ain't listened to em in ages, might see what they been up too lately

I went to college with the bass player (John Sprague). I jammed with him a few times. He's a nice guy. It's funny because he was really good even back then - better than you'd know from listening to him now.

LOL That is pretty much exactly what I was going to say.

Big fan myself and I think their singer could easily pass for Maynard in a cover band.

Dig the tunes though for sure.

Not a big fan at first, but they turned out to be a band that really grew on me. Now I'm really digging them. Their singer does do a better Maynard than Maynard at times.

Shawn · 04-12-2008, 03:19 PM

Jon has their first cd. It's pretty good.

mikernaut · 04-12-2008, 04:45 PM

I dig them, I really like the "two" cd , too me they really found their own Identity with that disc and had great variety in it too.

Cant wait to hear the new stuff.

Ramsay777 · 04-12-2008, 05:52 PM

I dig 'em.

Brilliant band actually, the singer's really good. "Someone" is a kick-ass song

That's killer! He seems like he would be a very talented player. I especially dig his little bass solo-esque part in "Not Afraid". Very cool stuff.

Indeed. When I first heard "Get Away" and "Not Afraid" I thought they had a nice TooL element about them, which is what drew me in. Then when "Two" was released, I bought it not hearing any of the tracks and loved it. I'll more than likely do the same with the next disc when it gets released. I can't wait to hear new stuff from them. They seem like a band that changes it up each album subtly, yet it appears to be a big change. I dunno if that makes sense, but yeah...

I agree. With the exception of "10,000 Days" vocals. However, I'm sure that's production to an extent. Wil Martin definitely has a killer voice either way you slice it. One of the best IMO.

I'm really surprised how many people dig Earshot here. AWESOME!
