They're touring now - gonna be in brooklyn in a few weeks at Europa, which is a pretty small space and that might get brutal fast. |

I never like anything much past "petitioning.." I love the feel of that album. Any suggestions of songs that I should try again post-Jane doe? |

if your looking for songs with the same feel to the structures pre jane doe i don't think you're gonna get 'em off the new releases. they have just matured/progressed in the way they write songs. give the post "petitioning" albums another listen though...there are good songs on all the albums...they just have different bones. |

i will never forget when i got the petitioning 7" from ferret and I heard The Saddest Day it blew me away. i don't listen to much "hardcore" anymore, but converge will always be timeless for me mainly because i was a fan since their inception and I have enjoyed & embraced their progression through the years (12+). |

i got petitioning when i was 16 or something (2003ish) and it changed me forever. i haven't really been into them for a while now but i saw them in '06 and it was fucking nuts. |

Converge is one of those bands, that to me stands the test of time. I still can listen to "Jane Doe" and be totally stoked on it. As far as that genre goes, I think they are the most creative band. "You Fail Me" was a pretty weird record and although I liked it, it didn't have that same feeling as their earlier records. "No Heroes" was so aggressive and angry, I loved it. This new jam sounds sick and I can't wait for the new record. My old band was lucky enough to play with them and Cave In here in Arizona a few years back. It was awesome. |

It was insane to me how they could be such an awesome metal/hardcore band and switch over to a totally different style that was perfect. They played some of the "Until Your Heart Stops" era songs when we played with them, then a lot of the Jupiter and Antenna. It was sick, Perfect Pitch Black is also awesome. |

Converge is above and beyond my favorite band. I saw them monday in Boston, and they've still got it. |
