![]() Well the only songs they had on the live concert were "Returning The Smile You Had From The Start, So Cold I could See My Breath, Pony Tail Parade, Studying Politics, Walls, And a video of them playing walls when they were first starting off as a band. I was expecting much more because Solid state/tooth and nail dvds are usually well.Very entertaining. Such as Demon Hunter with the re-release of The Triptych, Underoath with the re-release of They're Only Chasing Safety, And The Chariot's dvd on their Unsung EP (Which is very impressive by the way). I usually buy the dvds that tooth and nail/Solid State comes out with. As big of a emery fan I am I strongly dislike this song and am reminded of Hawthorne Heights from it. I am quite glad this a demo and wasn't put on the first release of the cd, The song is one big cliche. Thoughtlife (Demo) - The song starts off with the lead singer saying "My heart, left my chest" in a cliche-like way with chords being strummed in the background. at the last 40 seconds both singers start screaming "Your driving! So take the wheel!" Which is probubly the highlight of the songħ. I really do love the lyrics in it though, they all rhyme with a catchy sound. Death To Inconnveniounce (Demo) - The riff in this song really bothers me, It's high pitched and doesn't go with the song at all. This is the most up-beat and fast paced acoustic song they did, Overall I didn't like it as much as the other onesĦ. The chorus goes "This is the way it goes, with you a part of it, Nervously saying words that all so tightly fit, It's in the way you sell every word and phrase and leaving me to know how much the meaning weighs." Somehow they make that completly roll of the tongue. Im not a fan of drums being used in acoustic songs. This song does have drums in the background which really dissapointed me. This is probubly one of the more cleverly written songs by them, lyrically. Studying Politics (Acoustic) - The band's lead single and one of their anthems. ![]() It pretty much tops off a near-perfect acoustic remakeĥ. The last 24 seconds an acoustic guitar riff comes in with many slides and ALMOST solo-sounding. Otherwise this song is absolute perfection. This is probubly one of the better acoustic re-recordings I've ever heard, I would give it a 5/5 but there is this part in the song where the lead singer says "I wanted to mean everything to you, but this isn't right." and it just makes me cringe. The Acoustic riff is suprisingly techy and pretty instead of chords just being strummed. Fractions (Acoustic) - One of the more cliche songs Emery has written. ![]() The background scream is replaced with a choir like chant while the lead singer peacfully sings the lyrics, I was a bit dissapointed by this but its still pretty anyway.Ĥ. There was originally a breakdown at the last minute of the song where the keyboardist screams in the background while the lead singer screams lyrics. The chorus in this song is still extremly catchy as it was before. Half of the first verse is a clean and screamed vocals mixed with acoustic guitar being strummed, First time i've heard screaming in an acoustic remix. It starts off with a background scream of "Are you listening?". This acoustic song actually acoustic lead. Walls (Acoustic) - This is my favorite emery song of all time and It is just as good in acoustic form as rock. The two vocalists in this song make it so much more emotional and sincere.ģ. This is one of my favorite emery songs and I love it even more in acoustic form, The piano goes much better with this song than it did with Playing With Fire. The piano melody reminds me a bit of Boston by Augustina. The Pony Tail Parade (Acoustic) - Starts out with more piano, This song starts off a bit faster and up-beat. As do I again with the acoustic versionĢ. I never did get into this song much, I always found it boring and slow. Also some light violin played in the background. Playing With Fire (Acoustic) - This song has no acoustic guitar in it, It's all piano driven. I'm just going to be reviewing the bonus tracks and the dvd in this review.ġ. Over the last 4 years they've gathered a large indie/emo fan base that consists of many 14-19 year olds with glasses and tight jeans that fail at moshing. They were formed early on in South Carolina but moved to the West Coast in search of a better musical environment. Emery is a Christian progressive post-hardcore band from Seattle, Washington named after a first grader that the lead singer met in college.
