3 appreciation thread (Revisions -> 3 A.T.)
« on: May 06, 2009, 11:11:59 AM »
Projection is October.

Just got this email from Joey Eppard's email list. That is I would imagine a tentative title based on this email.

Quote
"3" and "The Dear Hunter" 5.9.09

Hey everyone. We've been hard at work on a new album this winter. We're just now finishing up the mixes and expect an October release. For the moment its lookin like the title will be:
"Revisions Volume 1: ANYONE HUMAN"

We're really psyched to be getting back out on stage again this coming saturday, especially with one of OUR favorite bands opening the show: "The Dear Hunter."  This one is worth driving for!

Saturday May 9th
"3" at The Bearsville Theater
special guest: The Dear Hunter
291 Tinker St (Route 212)
Woodstock, NY 12498   (845)-679-4406 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting              (845)-679-4406      end_of_the_skype_highlighting
Tickets: $15 doors: 8pm

also it very well could be 1 of a couple of albums from 3 in 2009, just based on what Neesh, a friend of mine whose close to the band, mentioned a few months ago.

Wow, I hadn't heard anything from 3 since they came through on the Progressive Nation tour and I was starting to get worried!  Great news!

This isn't the first time they've played together.  3 opened for TDH back at a Boston show in December. (Decent show, but the sound quality/stage setup both sucked). Seems they've reversed roles this time.

Bought my tickets like a month ago.  Can't wait :)

Awesome show last night.  TDH played about 45 minutes, including 2 new songs.  Three played for a little over an hour and a half.

Interesting venue:



Also, had a great view all night.

Casey:


Joey:



Pretty sure I spotted Josh Eppard hanging around outside too.

just to clarify about this album..I guess it's a bunch of old, unrecorded/unreleased songs. The next album with newly-written stuff is alos expected to come out this year, it's just not this album (hence the word "Revisions").

New "3" record: "Revisions" to be released on October 27th / upcoming "3" related performances
Hey Everybody,
 
We've been hard at work making music ever since we got home from our last tour and now we finally have the word on when our next record is coming out. On OCTOBER 27th "Revisions" will be released to the world!

A word on "Revisions"

 "3" has always been a band apart. We've never been afraid to follow the artistic impulse, whether it has lead us to genre bending progressive experimentation, or, as in the case of "Revisions," drawn us into a world defined more by melody and lyric than by instrumental prowess. It goes without saying that our goal has always been to create a symbiosis between these qualities, but on this record we find the poles have shifted in favor of the singer-songwriter element of what we do. This collection taps the rich history of "3" by reexamining some of the earlier songs that made us who we are today. Some of them are known from early live bootlegs, others existed only on cassette and were transferred to the internet by dedicated fans who some how dug them up(possibly out of my garage).  In any event, these are songs that we felt deserved a second chance, a "revision," if you will. Our passion for music is truly the common thread that binds our diverse body of work.
 
Upcoming "3" related performances...

Friday, August 28th, 9pm / Joey Eppard - Gartdrumm & JB Tenney
Live @ Keegan Ales - St James Street, Kingston, NY -  - no cover

Saturday, August 29th, 10pm / Joey Eppard solo acoustic! (w/Special guests)
Dave's Coffee House  
Partition Street, Saugerties, NY
Joey Eppard solo acoustic!

Saturday, September 5th, 10:15pm / Joey Eppard solo acoustic!
Live @ Sober in the Sun - Coffee House Stage
Treasure Valley Boyscout Camp in Rutland / Oakham, MA

Saturday, September 19th / Joey Eppard solo acoustic!
Live @ Alchemy, Woodstock, NY

3's new album Revisions just came out October 27th it says on wikipedia.  Did anyone listen to this? I remember their last two releases (wake pig, the end has begun) were pretty good.

I haven't heard the album yet, but it has some good songs on it that I've heard before.  It's definitely on my list for things to pick up this week, along w/ the new Between the Buried and Me and Atreyu albums.

I almost forgot they were releasing a new album this year. Seeing how I really liked The End Is Begun I might have to check this one out as well.
I felt its length in quite a few places.

Just for clarification, in case anyone doesn't know, these are not newly written songs.  They are older songs that haven't been released or have undergone some changes.  I believe that they're working on new material for an album as well, though.

Yeah, I got it a few days ago.

Its has a much more "poppy" sound to it, although that definately isnt a bad thing. Sounds closer to C&C than usual imo. Not too much "Heavy" stuff going on here; mostly mid-tempo and melodic stuff.

That's what I expected. I'd imagine any heavier stuff they're working on is going on the new album that's in the works.

Decent, but not great album. I like a lot of 3's older albums, but felt like they could have done more to some of these songs to make them "revisions." Most of them were just the same as the old versions. I would have liked them to update the sound of the song to their current sound more. Oh well. Still and enjoyable album.

Pretty cool album.  Maybe they weren't "real" revisions of their old songs (I wouldn't know), but it was very different and cool to listen to.  Hearing "the Game" made me wonder if Joey still feels a little angry that his brother abandoned their band to join Coheed (even though he ultimately left after that nice little breakdown).

I don't know how to describe this other than by saying it's a really cool release. Nothing mindblowing, but a fun album throughout that's quite catchy at times.

I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that "The Game" was written when Josh was still in the band.

Man, that new song sounds awesome. I can't wait for this album.

Coincidentally, I finally picked up Summercamp Nightmare this week. I still need Paint by Number and Revisions to complete my collection, though.
