Yup.
Well, I was on vacation this past week, and I just happened to pick up a copy of The Academy Is's CD.
I'd heard a song or two by them on pureVolume and I liked them, but their CD is just... amazing.
I don't know why, but I'm so addicted to them now.

"Checkmarks", "Classifieds", and "Season" are on Purevolume from their CD. I highly recommend those. "Down And Out" is my favorite on the CD, if you can listen to it.

Anyone else here a fan?



...I want to rape them. Shhhh. shifty.gif


OH! I just found the song Slow Down that wasn't listen on Purevolume. This, again, is another one of my favorites. LISTEN TO IT! You will be pleased.

I'm sorry, but I don't really like them. I've only heard "Checkermarks" , so maybe that's why. They're okay. They're not a band I'd listen to in my spare time.

ive been meaning to pick up their cd but i haven't gotten around to it. what attracted me to them the most was william beckett's voice. wub.gif i like slow down and their single off the new cd, the phrase that pays. and the remix of black mambo on the snakes on a plane soundtrack is pretty good.

oh well. i like 'em enough to submit a myspace layout of 'em.

I don't like the new album.
"Almost Here" was the album that made them one of my all time favorites.
But then "Santi" killed it.

Btw William Beckett is a daddy now.
He used to be hot as hell but idk now not so much.
I think it's his hair.
He just had to go ahead and cut it.
