  5. Good song and the new record is also very good. I don't care much about the videos though.

    I like everything that Walter's done. All the way from YOT/GB to this. One of the few real talents that emerged from the hardcore scene. And I mean as a singer/songwriter.

  6. The new Rival's album and Walter's solo album are two of my favorite records to come out within the last year or so.

    The solo lp may be my favorite "Walter" record or at least it's a close runner up to Quicksand's Slip. JL said it best:

    "One of the few real talents that emerged from the hardcore scene. And I mean as a singer/songwriter."

    I hope he does more and more of the singer/songwriter stuff. Please, no more GB reunions.

  9. the fact that :10-:50 was all done in a single shot is pretty sweet. I was hoping the whole vid was going to be one long shot. Good song. Good Album. Walter is a solid songwriter.

  14. for as great a guitarrist as Ian is and Walter is, this just sounds like a forgettable leftover from a Quicksand recording session.

    this band has so much potential it kills me, but 90% of its output is just kinda bland and forgettable.
