Going to see Genghis Tron, The Red Chord, Baroness, and Converge on Tuesday!
I've heard of Kylesa, havent had a chance to actually hear them yet, but I've been meaning to check them out.
I really like Baroness as well, but they played a good chunk of the Red Album at the show, and I dunno, I just wasnt half as impressed with them live as I am when I listen to the album, it could have just been a bad day for them, but they seemed kinda sloppy live and noticeably fell off tempo from each other at times, that was a big thing i just couldnt get past listening to the live set. And they didn't play anything from the other 2 EP's wich was kinda dissapointing. I have the first ep but not the second.

I do have No Heroes, and I actually like that one a lot, Jane Doe I just the other day and I've been listening to it constantly. I think the next one I buy will probably be "Petitioning The Empty Sky" ...
Also everyone seems to say these guys are a hardcore band but I've listened to some other hardcore bands and none of them really have the intensity of Converge, and some hardcore fans have said they're not really hardcore but some die-hard Converge fans swear they are... All I know is whatever the hell they are considered they fuckin' rock.
I still haven't given Forever Comes Crashing a thorough listen yet, but You Fail Me has some great tracks on it. But yea, I'd say get PTES next.
I'm pretty bad with genres/band labeling, and I really don't know what Converge is. I just look at them as metal, but really I don't care. :D
