I seriously think this is one of the coolest bands around right now. Very dreamy, sci-fi aura. I'm constantly blown away by their ability to mix beautiful, layered, avante-garde spacey melodies, with brutaly intense, and uniquely crafted hardcore breakdowns - and the vocals are impressive too, this guy can SING. And their instrumentals are downright pretty. They've somehow managed to capture their other-wordly vibe in their artwork and imagery, which is equally as cool, check stuff out...Their images make awesome desktop wallpapers....

Go to their website, whether you like the band or not, it's like visually stunning

Do they have a new album out now? I've got the old one and it's downright...special. Sattelite Years, I think it's called.

well they've been working on a new album for a while, and now their back on tour so i assume that means it's probably coming out soon..and, yeah sattelite years is SUPERB..have u ever seen them live?...i've seen tons of bands, of all different genres, and i think hopesfall is with out a doubt the most active/energetic band i've ever seen, they must injur eachother ALL THE TIME on stage...it's weird i didn't expect that from them, but they are NUTS

I have seen them twice. SWEET shows. I just stood still there with my mouth open.

yeah, i saw them once, at birchill...i dunno if they were just jacked up on speed, or what, but they were intense...limbs flying EVERYWHERE, yet they maintained perfection, they sounded amazing...and there was this awesome blue glow on the stage the whole time, which just added to the warm spacey aura....yo d'you know like their MAIN musical influence is Hum?...Hum's singer actually makes a lil cameo on Escape Pod For Intagibles

I do know that. And it's possible you and I were at the same show...

curled up and frozen still

with all this time to kill
