Red highest?
That's interesting, opinions are opinions and all, but most people I've seen has ranked it lowest.
Personally I like it, but it's my least favorite by far.

Just because I haven't done it yet, here's my Color Spectrum ranking.

1. Red
2. Black
3. Indigo
4. Yellow
5. Green
6. Violet
7. Orange
8. White
9. Blue

A few notes:

*Blue is the only EP whose ranking I'm 100% confident of. It's the only one I don't like.
*The reason Black isn't my #1 is because of Take More Than You Need. I like it, but I don't love it.
*Orange was originally going to be much higher than it is. Then I thought about it. Echo and But There's Wolves? are incredible, but the two other songs sandwiched in between are just ok. Because the EP begins and ends so strongly, I almost forgot that the other two songs aren't standouts.
*I think White is so low because I've never listened to it by itself. By the time I finally get to White, I'm slightly exhausted, and I don't pay as much attention to it as I should. I think if I singled it out and listened to it independently, my opinion of it would get better.

Black and Red are my favorites, so you're awesome.

I really don't like Take More Than You Need.

Be interesting to see a collab between those two. I mean, Circa Survive is something I need to be in just the right mood for, and their songs often blend together for me, but it could be cool to see Casey do something outside of TDH.

Casey does tons of non-TDH stuff, although I guess most of it is more production type duties. But he's contributed to tracks by other artists all over the place (e.g., The River Empires, Forgive Durden, Naive Thieves, etc.)

He's performed w/ Anthony Green too. They did an acoustic tour together in late '07 (which I vividly remember mostly for the fact that I attempted to go to their local show for what would've been my first TDH concert only to find out that it had already sold out)

It's so consistent; all four songs are standouts. I love the emotion and energy that's conveyed throughout every song.

It's not my favorite but I agree with this.

The worst thing about Red: vocals during the second verse in "A Curse of Cynicism." Yuck.

My vinyl for TCS has finally been processed HURRAY

zxlkho · « **Reply #1377 on:** July 20, 2011, 01:01:36 PM »

You still haven't gotten it yet? Holy shit

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #1378 on:** July 20, 2011, 02:44:54 PM »

^^^ One of the plates broke at the manufacturer, so there was a whole chunk of sets that got delayed by like a month.

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #1381 on:** July 20, 2011, 06:07:32 PM »

Red is the only EP that I'd consider worse than great.

Something about it just sticks out to me when I listen to TCS completely. And sticks out in a bad way.

It's the only thing I've ever not loved by this band too.

Gadough · « **Reply #1382 on:** July 20, 2011, 06:25:23 PM »

That's exactly how I feel about Blue.

You and I are just destined to be opposites about everything.

You didn't say that in reference to me. You said that about Hayden. You were so drunk you probably don't remember.

zxlkho · « **Reply #1387 on:** July 20, 2011, 07:20:13 PM »

I think I remember that.

ariich · « **Reply #1388 on:** July 21, 2011, 03:03:17 PM »

1. Violet
2. Black
3. Orange
4. Green
5. Red
6. Indigo
7. Yellow
8. White
9. Blue

All are amazing. When TCS came out, TDH weren't my highest played artist on last.fm. Now they're my highest by over 400. Wtf.

Ravenheart · « **Reply #1389 on:** July 21, 2011, 03:07:49 PM »

Black and Indigo are my favorites. I think they play industrial and electronic music very well, and I'd like to see more of it in the future.

FretMuppet · « **Reply #1390 on:** July 21, 2011, 03:18:28 PM »

WELL FUCK ME SIDEWAYS THIS BAND IS GOOD

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #1391 on:** July 21, 2011, 03:44:57 PM »

Fun game... spot where in the lyrics they "fuck"! (Hint: It's a background lyric)

Gadough · « **Reply #1392 on:** July 21, 2011, 05:26:53 PM »

Of what song? From what album? You gotta give us a hint!

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #1393 on:** July 21, 2011, 08:51:41 PM »

Its somewhere on TCS...

Gadough · « **Reply #1394 on:** July 21, 2011, 08:55:17 PM »

I'm just going to assume it happens on either Red or Black. I can't imagine "fuck" being spoken in the background on Yellow, Blue, or Green.

zxlkho · « **Reply #1395 on:** July 21, 2011, 08:56:53 PM »

yeah isn't it in A Cure of Cynicism?

Pirate · « **Reply #1396 on:** July 21, 2011, 09:15:35 PM »

When you said 'When they "fuck"' my first thought was He Said He Had a Story.

Super Dude · « **Reply #1397 on:** July 22, 2011, 05:51:12 AM »

My opinion has not changed much from release:

1. Blue
2. Yellow
3. White
4. Black
5. Green
6. Red
7. Orange
8. Indigo
9. Violet

Violet to me just sounds too much like their normal sound to me. With the others I really feel like they stretched things out.

BTW, is it just me or does anyone else find the only way they can listen to the EPs is from Black to White? For some reason listening to one Color by itself to me feels like coming into the middle of an album, it's weird.

I feel like I agree with all of this.
The only times I've listened to TCS, I listened to the whole thing, and just a few songs would be too weird.
