[sdre-l]: hello
i hope the list runs up to par now. Thanks Ferris for taking on the responsibility. ok, does ANYONE have the 'friday(original).mp3' that was in the now defunct sdre audio archive??? i can't find it anywhere. it has some of the chorus replaced with just a few guitar chords. It is really old, but very rad. please someone, i know somebody must have it. if you do can you just e-mail it to me or direct to a place where i can find it? again, this is not the mp3 from the pink album, it's a really old recording. thank you. josh
[sdre-l]: Far and 5/4
5/4: at the end of the song, Jeremy sings something along the lines of I'm Lost In You Open My Eyes You Set Me Free (lyrics from ansigod's web site, not my own) Won't Lift Me Up You Held Me I'm Lost In You You're Jesus okay, you still with me? now my question is this: Is Jeremy saying all of what this person has done for him, and identifying that person as being Jesus? or is he saying these things about someone and then using Jesus as a metaphor? in other words, is he literally talking about Jesus, or comparing someone else to Jesus? I still don't know if i am clarifying this correctly to get the kind of response i am looking for, but we'll see. please post your thoughts on this. it should make good list discussion. concerning Far: If you can name a band it always seems someone on the sdre-l knows them too. I've heard them and I also believe they are among the best emo bands, if you can really call them that. They played a show here in SLC utah a few years back that i remember.

Re: [sdre-l]: Far and 5/4
yes. this is what i originally thought. But then I realized if he became christian before this, then maybe he is literally talking about Jesus. I don't think any of us know exactly when he began to look for God, for so I don't know if we'll ever resolve anything.

Re: [sdre-l]: NEW MP3 review
I like it, but I thought Dan said this album was going to be more like diary and lp2. All I can feel is HIFTBSO with this song. I hope all of the new songs aren't going to feel this way. I want the 'less-produced' sound they used to have. oh well. it is really good. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I love SDRE, they are my fave band.

Re: [sdre-l]: NEW MP3 review
It's hard to say, it's more of a feeling, but alas, it is the sound of I hate to say it but kind of a 'grungier' sound. I know this will be misunderstood and misinterpreted from what I want it to mean, but that is the problem with communication. I just mean it seems that HIFTBSO and the ocean have a feel like they have been through producing and producing and direction given by producers (directors) and not just what the band would play without it. ignore me.

Re: [sdre-l]: NEW MP3 review
But what did Joe Bass mean when he said it would have a sound more like Diary and lp2 than HIFTBSO? It doesn't seem that way to me, so far. Then again, this is only one song, and we shouldn't jump to conclusions about how the whole album will sound.

Re: [sdre-l]: ANOTHER OCEAN REVIEW...
The deal with this whole change thing is this: most people here agree that a band should change and develop. Most of you guys here are flaming me for saying I want another diary, but The Ocean could easiily belong on HIFTBSO. I don't see how you can say 'not another diary, that would mean they are not changing, a band should always be evolving and becoming something else' , but this song, in my opinion, has not really changed from the stuff on HIFTBSO. This is only my opinion, as is everything i say (e.e. cummings loosely quoted).

But, yes, I could be true... I read somewhere that Will just kind of jokingly suggested it, which makes sense, because Jeremy I don't think would swear like that, being the christian he is.
[sdre-l]: covers by us
I have been thinking lately that it would be cool if we could get people on this list to do covers of SDRE songs. I am in a band, and I think it'd be fun, after all there is no better way to gather a love for a song than to plaay the song yourself. Maybe if each band that is affiliated with the list could do a song and tape it, then someone(possibly me) could put them all together on tape or CD and distribute it to list members. Yeah, it will problably never happen, but I think it would be an enjoyable experience. If anyone on the list is in a band and would be interested, then post your ideas on the subject.

[sdre-l]: mp3
if you need an easy way to get the rare mp3s, go to mp3.lycos.com and search for them. I just found this site. maybe it's been mentrioned before. they've got tons of live stuff and rare things. unfortunately, they also have the three lp's :(
[sdre-l]: our covers
so pirxzero, what's going on with our covers? nobody can reach you. which sdre songs are taken? I need to reserve one if it's still going on. email me back
[sdre-l]: empty set
I'm wondering about these empty set demos i've heard about on the list. what are they?
[sdre-l]: salt lake city
This show was the greatest I've ever seen. The highlights were j'nuh and the rising tide. J'nuh was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard, seriously. In Circles sounded great. I also loved the ending to the rising tide how they mixed it up a bit and added new pieces. I'm still thinking of j'nuh. After seeing them play the new songs live, without all of the production problems that are present on the new cd, I gained much respect for their new songs. It was easier to listen to the real music rather than focusing on the cheesy guitars and the commercially-aimed vocals. How wonderful.

Re: [sdre-l]: Lyric Writing
I don't know about this. The person who wrote the lyrics to diary definitely also wrote the lyrics to the pink album, whoever that is. But whoever wrote the rising tide lyrics was absolutely positively not the same person who wrote the majority of the lyrics on diary. sorry if it makes no sense.

[sdre-l]: equipment
I am buying a bunch of new equipment and am looking for a sdre sound from the time of Diary. Can you guys tell me about the equipment Dan and Jeremy used back then? I guess they used SGs, right? Does anyone know what style/year or anything more specific about their guitars? What about pedals, amps, etc? thank you.
[sdre-l]: empty set
what are the empty set demos?
