J2112YYZ Posted March 18, 2016 Author Share Posted March 18, 2016 Don't think this band is metal enough for ducky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day of Light Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) I've heard two albums now. I really like the production on The Edges of Twilight and its more exotic sound. I'm on my second listen. I'll be listening to the third/fourth album tomorrow once I get home from school. Thanks for encouraging me to take the plunge, bean and Cy. :) Edited March 21, 2016 by Day of Light 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their third album, Transmission, is a departure from the other two. More electronic stuff and it's a bit dark and angry. The band was going through some stuff when they wrote it.

I didn't mean to exclude. It's just that they were talking to me about it in the TRF chat a while back. I like electronic darkness and edginess. I might like it. I'll report back to you! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Edges of Twilight is my personal favourite, but that's certainly not to detract from any of their other brilliant albums :) Now you'll just have to get Segue on board 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother got the nickname because back in the day when we played street hockey on the weekends, he wasn't very athletic and moved slow. My friend called him that one day and it stuck for a few years. He always stayed back and played defense since he couldn't move too fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day of Light Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Follow-up as planned: I can really appreciate the energy and anger in Transmission. I like every track--especially the title track. There's a piano and electronica bit at the end of Babylon that I instantly fell in love with. Very good music for getting stuff done to. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabesCavesOfIce Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Wow, Tea Party topic on the forum! Where I live, most think that means you are probably supporting an orange candidate for president. Seriously, so many awesome Canadian bands that almost nobody in Metro NY knows. Been a fan of TTP since the 90s. Wish they would tour here! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, so many awesome Canadian bands that almost nobody in Metro NY knows. Been a fan of TTP since the 90s. Wish they would tour here! They don't even play in NYC, wow! I guess I was right when I thought that only the border cities in the US, like here in Buffalo are the only US places they play then. I'm guessing they play Detroit since where they're from in Windsor, Ontario is right over the border from that. Then maybe they play Seattle as well and that's it? It's a shame they never got proper distribution/record label support in the US. The band could really have developed a great following from the start if more people outside of Canada and Australia (where Jeff Martin lives now) knew about them. I've always felt in the 20 years i've been a fan, they may very well be the best kept secret in rock. It seems like this thread has introduced a couple people on this board to the band and made them fans which was one of my main reasons for starting it. Still waiting on Segue to fully immerse himself in this band though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just start with their first album Splendor Solis if you can and work your way forward. There honestly isn't a bad album from them, so you really can't go wrong with whatever you try first though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabesCavesOfIce Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I don't recall TTP playing in or near NYC, unlike The Hip and OLP that seem to swing by every tour. Another Canadian gem, Matthew Good played here once (that I can recall) when the US version of Beautiful Midnight came out. He almost toured here again a few years ago, but the promoter pulled the plug. So I got to see him...once. Beats never. Been listening to TTP again since finding this thread, really liking Temptation right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transmission is my second favorite album from them after Interzone. I looked up the dates and they're playing two nights here. They're offering a two day pass for $58, so I think I might go with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know about the two-day passes, though--that sounds like a great deal! I think we're in for a treat :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
