Talk:Circa Survive

Experimental/Progressive?
Will anyone explain to me why they think this band is experimental and progressive? Sure they have a few 5/4 and 7/8 time signatures, some atmospheric guitar work, and like one synthesizer part, but does that really make them experimental or progressive. I would love some examples. 76.27.70.228 (talk) 18:12, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

I agree- Why are they listed as progressive? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.81.19.153 (talk) 05:57, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

I concur. There is very little in their music that would warrant being listed as a progressive band. They're more post-hardcore than anything else, really. Deveh (talk) 05:58, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Emo...
Yeah... definitely get rid of this asap. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.101.166.64 (talk) 22:08, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree. Circa Survive is in no way "emo" so get rid of this, please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.96.147.189 (talk) 04:21, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

I agree with the idea that the majority of their music may not be "Emo", but I disagree with the idea that this does not fit at all. The song "Get Out" is a good example.

Vandalism
There's a lot of it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.109.181.154 (talk) 23:58, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Juturna opened to harsh criticism?
Not according to aggregate reviews...or any references cited anywhere in this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.231.29.182 (talk) 07:08, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Prog rock
They're considered crossover prog. They are mainstream with elements of Prog rock. And please remove the emo title. They aren't emo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.168.183.96 (talk) 00:18, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Genre
I fail to see the band as "emo" or "post-hardcore". Bands that fall under these genres are of the punk persuasion, respectively. Circa Survive's genre seems to be a topic of discussion, but I think we should start sourcing the genres on the page. If anyone can find a sensible source claiming them to be emo or post-hardcore, please provide it on the page. Thanks,  Tom  US  A   22:37, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

I found an interesting interview with Vice here that includes both post-hardcore and emo. "Their music was not only genre-bending – dancing somewhere between psychedelia, post-hardcore and emo – but Anthony Green’s high-pitched, almost-feminine vocals captured the vulnerability of what it feels like to have a war going on in your head, without much of the toxic, macho-ridden inhibitions that plagued the Warped Tour scene." This second one is a direct quote from Anthony Green in the same interview classifying "Blue Sky Noise" as psychedelic punk: "So let’s try and make the coolest psychedelic punk record that they’ll let us put out."
