Ok so now that I've FINALLY gotten to see TFoT live, now 4 times, I still can't get over how well he recreates the effects from the albums live. But there's one in particular I just can't seem to figure out. I know it uses the Space Echo twist effect A LOT, especially on Phantom, Ghost Ship, etc. But that's not the one I'm thinking of. I'm thinking of the warping, warbling sound he's doing in McCauley Mcculkin in the break before the breakdown. It's almost like a swooshing, whipping sound and when I saw him do it live, it was like right off the album so it can't be too complicated. Before they start the song, the twice I've seen em, he sets something on one of his pedals. Maybe the Line6 DD delay pedal or the FM modulator? Whammy pedal? I dunno, any ideas? Also, he does like a "PEEEWWWWWWW" sound that goes from high to low that sounds like he's using a whammy but I can't make my whammy do it that digital sounding at all. It sounds like a synth way more than a guitar. Anybody? Lololol

i haven’t heard them and i heard they have added keys too?

i’d say any of the early merch / a 30 years war cd

The Fall of Troy is easily my favorite band for almost 20 years now. Nobody else can quite capture their sound or feeling, even Erak’s other projects. Please recommend similar bands.

I’d best describe their distinctness as having a sense of urgency, like they’re telling you something you need to hear right now. Plus their more abstract wandering slow bits creating that PNW foggy atmosphere that suddenly goes crazy. Creepy lyrics (occasionally rooted in literature which is cool) with multiple layers of interpretation. Mixing a higher singing voice and obviously screaming. It’s basically perfect imo.

I have never found another band that does something even close. I’ve been looking. Please recommend me something. I could list the ones I think are close but it’s fine to hear them recommended again.

I used to follow a lot of post hardcore/screamo/metal but kinda lost touch and mainly just listen to my favorite stuff these days. Trying to get back into it but Apple suggestions aren’t cutting it.

Other bands I like are different genres but I’d argue they all share this urgency to a degree. My top 5 bands of all time are TFoT, Pink Floyd, Muse, The Killers, and Bright Eyes.

Edit: Bonus points if they’re a current band that still perform and making new stuff.

I'm selling a pre-worn 3XL Doppelgänger 20th anniversary shirt (too large). $20 shipped in US

DM me if interested! If not marked sold, it’s still available.

found this gem on soulseek - credits go out to user nexus15 for hosting the file and chris underwood for taping the show. enjoy! :)

My god was this show great.

The entire show was awesome. The openers Divorce Culture and My Sword! My Sword! we're really good. Also the entire crowed freaking out when they play F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. was unforgettable.

I only have one photo from the concert though. Sorry.

I did get a pick from Hendo though! That was awesome!

Looking for the guy who was beside me in front of Thomas..we were close to breaking our necks from headbanging

Oh my god what a show the openers of Divorce Culture and My Sword My Sword were amazing the energy was amazing although I didn’t know much of their songs it was still amazing.

The Fall of Troy was amazing as ever and great energy. Most of the people there were cool bar a few interesting decisions by the crowd but easily one of my favorite shows. Also Tim handed me a pick easily my favorite moment.

Edit hendo** my apologies :(

Anybody selling seats to tomorrow’s show at the Fulmore? Lmk I’m buying

Looking for jam buddies in this style, im a guitarist mid 30s based in NC. Would love to connect w locals, but not opposed to sending recordings back and forth. Hope this is allowed

I just saw they added this show and was maybe thinking of driving from Philly. Can anyone tell me if there’s a place I can work from a laptop during the day and if there’s parking in the area?

Anyone at the Toronto show who remembers or is willing to piece together the setlist from that night?

Was an awesome show, but it was a bit of a blur, so I can't fully remember everything they played.

Checked setlist fm and no dice, which is why I'm here.

If anyone can help that would be cool, thanks.

That’s it, that’s the post. 🤘

Im seeing them on my birthday and i wanna know the merch table

i can’t seem to find anything about it on the internet, can anyone provide background info on whether this is real?
