Posted by: jessica on July 24, 2003 12:21 AM

I will try very hard not to let the lack of diction displayed, not only from the comments on this board, but from a band member as well, taint my high opinions of the wonderful, anarchial music that is made by you, the band in general. It's quite the piece of luck that there were no injuries from the accident, but I suppose we've all learned not to put the pedal to the metal during a hail storm, hardy har. Anyways, keep up the good work. Farewell.

Hey...you guys kick ass! when r u guys gonna be in NJ? sry to hear bout the accident but im glad you guys are ok :) love yaz

I was to the left (your right) of the stage headbanging like a maniac and i was unable to meet you guys after the show but i plan to make every effort during your next trip out here. Peace

Posted by: Theamazingsmile on July 24, 2003 09:01 AM

Whats up, I heard the song "bottle" on the radio, but I kept on missing who the artitst was until, I saw the video on mtv, it was tight. Im going to check ya'll out at the 930 club in DC. Do ya'll have any instrumentals for the songs on your cd?, b/c Im a hip hop artist, and I like to rhyme over diff. beats, especially ones with ill guitar sounds in them. If ya'll ever need anyone to "rap" for any of your songs just let me know, Im always up to taking music to the next level. Check out my song at "Freedom" at www.mp3.com/chad_mercy

peace,

Hey guys

I just wanted to say that you guys rock and that I not only find you talented in music but also on the lyrics.
Especially for :''Silhouettes''
That song made me cry guys!!!

I think every fan or every one can find a song that they can relate too in your album.

... And one last thing.

Be careful to not get a close call like not too long ago.

Don't die! Coz people luv ya! OK guys!

Alright BYE Dudes !

Posted by: Alberto (From Canada) on July 25, 2003 01:14 AM

I just wanna say that you guys rock. You all are hot/cute whatever but I mostly care about the music and it's awesome, so you guys have both departments down. Good Job! Funny thing, I was watching you guys on MTV2 Rock made me wanna come here,nice site.

Posted by: Nicole on July 25, 2003 01:46 AM

Hey i just wanted to let you guys now that i really appreciate your music i know you probably hear like 24-7 but i'm serious you guys are the best and every time i listen to your music it puts me at ease. I really wanna come see you in concert but unfortunately you arent going to be anywhere close but till then i'll keep with the music...
Thanks a ton. You guys are amazing.
~Becca~

Posted by: Becca on July 25, 2003 02:06 AM

HEy Guys! Ya'll Rock my sox! I Love your music! I wanted to go to see you live tonight at the 9:30 Club in Washington but my parents were acting like parents and they said, "NO, i dont want you going to that part of DC, at that time of night..." So you guys havta come back to the DC area!! That really sucks about that whole "almost dieing" thing. I bet you had to clean your pants out after that one! That happened to my family and I back when I used to live in Texas. The storms there are mad-scary! But I'm glad you guys are ok. Your music is sooo awesome. My dream is to one day, be in a successful band, and i hope that my fans feel the way that I do when I hear your music which is indescribable...then I'll know that I am REALLY making a difference... Smile Empty Soul, you're waaaay sweet, and keep on making music!! By the way, all of you are Sizzling!! Tootles, and good luck with the rest of your tour!
*Kim~
P.S. I love your website, whoever set it up did a good job. I like how on the homepage, "Bottom of a Bottle" plays!!

Slick Driving sounds like something i'd pull off. I just heard your music and i gatta say.. nice sound. It's too bad i heard it AFTER you guys played in MA. Come down the cape sometime and play, its not often we get hail storms or any other crazy weather so i think you'll be in clear.

Posted by: Mallory on July 25, 2003 04:44 AM

Yo. It cracks me up that you guys tell this story all the time. I've heard it here, on IMX, and on some MTV2 interview. Of course, I would as well be pretty repetetive of the story if I almost died. Heh. I heart your music.

...thats not funny... you guys fuckin rock... your lyrics are amazing and just the way your music flows just really moves me.. especially "other side.." that song really put some things in perspective for me.. Also, referring to the lyrics to that song, I believe it was a stroke of genius... keep up the great work, and keep those songs coming... I'm loving every second of it...

Posted by: Liz on July 26, 2003 01:29 AM

hey i just got you cd (it rocks)((sounds familar))
anyway i think it is awsome that you cant talk so openly about your life experences in you music it is a real inspiration for me. you are my idol i love the bottom of the bottle i think it might be my favorite song of all time and youy guys need to slow down 80 in a hail storm is insane. i love you hole style of music i think you are very nirvana like and i love your music and sound soooo much more them nirvana i have not stopped listinging to your cd for the past four days and it is the best cd i have

peace, love, happness, kyle

Posted by: kyle on July 26, 2003 01:49 AM

Hey guys,thats not to cool about the van accident but, you survived and i am really glad you did. I just saw you guys last night in D.C.! The show was fucking great. Sean not only are you sexy as hell but you can sing. I am learning to play the bass guitar. maybe one day i will be playing along side of you. probably i will just never be that good. but hey one can dream. and like you said "we can become anyhting if we want it bad enough." well your songs have helped me alot. I feel the music. keep playing. I wanted to get your autographs and maybe a piture but, my friends i was at the 930 club with were being un-cool and rushed me out the door :(!! Well talk to you guys later!!! Maybe you can email me if you have the time. Love you guys. Paula

Posted by: Paula on July 26, 2003 03:21 AM

HEY U GUYS ROCK!! Whooo! Bottom of a Bottle and Nowhere Kids are my favorite songs. Whoooo!
Wow, your site turned out great!! A couple of weeks ago all I saw was a player to listen to Bottom of a Bottle.
Umm.. I'm not sure what exactly u guys mean by URL.. but I'll put in my xanga site (journal thinger)... maybe u'll take a look at it or something.
Well, have fun in DC! Loads to see there... The Smithsonian meusems aren't bad...
Keep on rockin!

Posted by: Samantha on July 26, 2003 03:39 AM

hey i just wanted to say ima big big fan you guys are freaking awesome to the core. keep up the excellent work. i have learned every song on the cd on my acoustic guitar because i cannot get it outta my head, hope u read this. someday i will be famous and wanna tour with you guys. well my band is getting noticed. so see you soon ;-) possibly. i also wanna tell sean that he has the most beautiful and sexiest voice ive ever heard. well love you guys. please come to st.louis,mo. keep me posted. bye.

Posted by: holly on July 26, 2003 04:12 AM

So I guess I'm now stalking you guys...well not really. But I am driving from NJ to Poughkeepsie tomorrow to see you...I guess I'm just bored. You see what a loyal fan I am. Dont worry, i have no intentions of standing outside and screaming at you or like attacking your or anything...i'm the good kind of stalker that just buys tickets to your shows and makes their friends listen to and like your cd. I dont particularly care what I'm writing and what people think because I suspect nobody really reads this things anyway..So yeah, see you guys tomorrow

Hey guys! I'm so glad to hear that you survived your accident! And I was even more glad to see you at the Troc in Philly last night. The show was absolutely amazing. Three Days Grace started off the show pretty well, but you guys really got the crowd going. I love your music, keep it up. Next time you're in town my friends and I will definitely be there watching!

Again thanks for the awesome performance at the Troc! Philly loves you! :-)

Hey guys! I am sure you dont remember me but I my name is Emma. I met you all in Springfield IL. and hung out with you all after the show with Seether and Trapt. I was the Small lil chick in the pink hoodie that I had you sign it like 10 times!and that sang for Seether at their bus :) Ryan, you loved it when I said you were "soo sweet!" and Sean, well you spilled your Beer on me, and Derek, Look at your bracelets.I gave you the blue and clear ones. Derek if you talk to Twylah again then ask her about me. She said that you told her you remembered me. So Derek, If you see this (Sean and Ryan you better tell him cause I know I am going to come and see you all again and Derek said he sometimes doesnt check it) but Derek if you see this, then either Email me at EmnEm112@aol.com or call Twylah cause she and I are friends. I told you that I wanted to get into touch with you and you said this was how to do it! Keep Rockin' out for me! Later on..

Posted by: guess silly on July 28, 2003 12:42 AM

Wow, I hate to be a repetitive person, but you're music HAULS MAJOR ASS. It's like you dug into my soul and wrote everything I ever felt in my life. I can't say which songs I like the most because this is honestly the only CD I can listen to over and over and over without skipping a song and without getting sick of it. Buying this album helped me get through a lot of shit in my life. I probably would still be all depressed, but I'm not now and I have only you guys to thank. It always helps to think that someone out there knows how you feel. You guys are a true inspiration.. the band I've wanted to come out of all this shitty music for so long. You have a unique sound that I haven't heard and you don't waste time singing every song on the album about missing each damned girl you've dated (lol). I'm really happy that you guys are okay after that near death experience. You guys have to come to NJ. I know we're a small and sucky state, but you have a big fan here.. me. Sorry if that doesn't seem like a good enough reason. It would kickass if I could meet you guys. I guess I'll have to wait for that =) or at least wish.. I'd say email me, but I know you guys are busy and I can't count on that not happening. (but here's my email anyway: smileemptysoulxfan@yahoo) I hope you get to read this. i LOVE YOU GUYS.. and not in the teenie way.. in the honest and for your music kinda way. But speaking of which.. for the tiny and I promise it'll be short.. urm, teenie part.. SEAN YOU'RE FUCKiNG HOTT AS HELL. Keep rocking you guys! I'll be here being a diehard fan no matter what (in lil old NJ, haha)! =)

I first heard you guys on the radio with "bottom of a bottle" and I loved it. So I looked up the site. I have heard several of your songs now and I just love them all. I just wanted to let you know there are ppl out here that appreciate what you are saying and doing. Keep up the good work.

Posted by: Rachel on July 28, 2003 10:44 PM

i know i already told u guys how much u kick ass but i gotta tell u ur cd is taking over my life. my friends r afraid for me. cause my sis like stole my linkin park cd and i dont care i take my discman and ur cd everywhere i go. ive only had it since i saw u saturday night and its only monday now but yesterday even i knew all the words by heart. my friend i brought to the concert with me told me i need therapy. but its addictive cause its deep and everything u say someone can relate to and i dont think ill ever get tired of this cd. my mom gvae me a dirty look she was like isnt this music a bit depressing its all like angry. i told her no its acctually not all angry and it helps peopel like me deal with people like u. she didnt like that comment but its true. im trapped ina tiny town full of narrow minded people. so its hard to sya what i think with out hurting my friends cause theyll take it the wrong way. so i write but i dont have a band so it doesnt matter that i have songs for one lol. im begining to ramble again but seriously i luv u guys so much dont get killed that would be bad. once agian def put saturday on the next cd. much luv and rock on

Posted by: tracie on July 29, 2003 01:06 AM

i hate to sound like everyone else in these comment things, but you guys rock...bottom of a bottle kept me from doing some really stupid shit one night... "but something makes me carry on" was the only thing i heard coming from the tv...thanks....

Posted by: taryn on July 29, 2003 06:07 AM

So i tried stalking you, but that was hard as hell...cause i mean the loft in poughkeepsie couldnt have been harder to find for a poor little jersey girl like me. If it wasnt for that toothless taxi driver i woulda had to drive around for like another hour trying to find that damn street that was like in a parking lot or something...and why doesnt the loft have a phone number...lol. Oh yeah, and why does the New York thruway not tell me thats what it is...I'm never going up there again. Now my friend christy is completely in love with Derek (big shock, am I the only one who isnt like drooling over him?) So anyway the loft show was great...my friend wanted me to drive to deleware to see you but I hate getting oh so very lost, so I'm giving up stalking you for awhile, takes up too much energy. Dont worry though, my love remains with you guys and I'm sure I'll be bored as hell as usual at 4am and be writing stuff in your journal to waste time...dont mind me :)

Posted by: Ryan on July 29, 2003 09:02 AM

I know you probably get comments like this one all the time, but here's my 2 cents anyway. I just went out and bought your CD on a whim the other day along with 4 other major bands. I have to say that I can relate to your lyrics and music more than any of the others, specifically the 2nd song, "Silhouettes." Your band is awesome. I can't wait to see you in August here in New Orleans.

Posted by: Chris on July 29, 2003 09:40 AM

I found out about u guys on the radio, & the 1st time I heard you guys, I knew I found a new band that would inspire me & make me luv music even more.

hey. you guys are awesome. i really like your music and such. ive been through alot of shit this past year and music has helped me through it... and im glad to say that once i bought your cd everything seems just right when im listening to you guys. ive connected with silhouetes quite a bit. it basicly explains my family and they way i feel. shit... ive connected with most all your songs. i love the other side. keep up the good music. there needs to be more bands out there like you...

im sorry to hear about your accident. im glad to know you guys arent dead. my mother works for the YMCA child care and there was recently an accident with one of the 15 passenger vans. there were about 8 kids in there. one girl died. and one boy is in intensive care and they havent updated his condition. the rest of the kids plus the driver all went to the hospital some stayed that night others left that day. it was horrible. it wasnt their fault though... the tire blew. so im glad you guys made it out ok. but i must continue to pack. keep up the good work.
they've let go...

Your lyrics in your songs are something I can relate to like "the other side" is really amazing and reminds me about my life too. My parents are split up, cause my father was cheeting on my mother (it's life) hah. Well, you guys are helpful, and thats all I have to say. I'm sorry to hear about your near-death experience, and happy that you got out of that okay.

Posted by: Shandi_C on August 5, 2003 05:41 PM

you know, i saw your video for bottom of a bottle of fuse, and i was amazed by your talent. i got online and checked out your web page. i was very disappointed. reading the lyrics to your songs really pissed me off, especially the one entitled every sunday. you try and make it sound like the christans in this world have done wrong. all we do is try and help people see the truth. its bands like you that make kids so closed minded about GOD. i wish you would take a closer look at what you are doing and consider changing some things. yall are amazingly gifted musicians and GOD gave you that gift. he can also take it away. so why dont you use your gift to glorify him? just a thought.

Posted by: terrah on August 5, 2003 08:39 PM

hey i love ur music... it kicks... it completely like.... describes how i feel and you guys are amzing singers....my favorite ones are bottome of a bottle cuz its pretty much how i am... but with my mom...therapy... and with this knife...well yea... that would be wicked cool ifu guys came to stafford, ct... an if u imed me... my sn is rionisinmybed... keep with the kick ass music... its fucking awesome...p.s sean... ur hot

Guys - Never posted anything like this, but I had to let you guys know that your lyrics totally rock. I am probably older than most of the fans that post but if you read this I just wanted to say thanks for doing what you guys do. The lyrics to bottom of a bottle and therapy hit close to home. Anyway keep rocken' and I will be picking up the CD this week!!!

Posted by: Kim T on August 6, 2003 06:22 PM

Whats up guys!!!! You guys really fuckin rock man i love the lyrics and the instruments and everything it just all goes together. They lyrics actually mean somethin unlike a lot of bands out here today. I went out and bought that cd the day it came out and there's just not even any words to describe it. I cant wait to see you live in concert and hopefully get to meet all of you. Good Luck and cant wait to hear some new stuff in the future.

Posted by: Jake on August 6, 2003 06:25 PM

Hey!!!! Sorry but i just had to say somethin else. Man u guys lyrics relate to me soo much and as i've been readin on here they relate to a lot of other people too. Thanks for writin this stuff man it's glad to know that some other people are goin through the same stuff that i am right now. W/out yall's music i dont know what i would do right now but just wanted to say THANK YOU.

I mean, that show made me take the Trapt cd out(miracle) and I've been listening to you guys ever since (this is 4 days later) You put on a GREAT show...really intense and I hope to see you guys back here soon! Awesome lyrics that are so realistic. "No where kids" and "The other side" amazing songs that I can never get out of my head and that's what I look for in good music! You KNOW it's good if you can't get that shit out of your head. Keep us posted on car wrecks, dead deer and whatever shit you guys happen to run into on the road. You guys are Gods...COME BACK SOON!!!! I'm sick of this Simple Plan, All American fucking rejects bullshit that keeps coming here!! It's time for some REAL music!! COME BACK!! thanks...for music and for sharing it with the world and keeping me sane and well, alive. thanks

Hey it's me again, u guys ROCK. YOur cd rocks and i listen to it 24/7 no lie. My favorite song is "Silhouetts". Your lyrics are so deep, and the songs just put me in like another place. More bands need to be like. You seem really down to earth unlike some bands. I'm looking forward to seeing u in concert, and if u read this i was wondering if u guys could come to around La, California,again cause unfortunately i couldn't get tickets to the upcoming concert, reason being i start school that day. It would rock to meet u guys someday. You totally rock and kick ass. Keep safe i'll be praying for u guys. God is with u. Maybe u guys should get that bus checked i mean after this and the dear factor. If u guys could email me that would be so awesome, i understand if u can't i know u get thousands of letters a day. By the way what does MRA mean. SOrry i wrote so much. Love You Guys

Posted by: Chaye' on August 8, 2003 05:04 AM

if you write the last post does that mean your post goes to the bottom. if so why? why does my post have to go to the end. that's not fair. well anyway, you guys are great. i love the cd, really. oh, and derek, if you are any good in bed i will marry you. i am being serious

Posted by: BindingSpirits on August 8, 2003 05:43 AM

I just got back from the Smile Empty Soul concert in Cleveland...wow! I'd heard you guys before on Fuse, and I was into it, but it's so much different live. I got to stand in the front row and you guys kicked so much ass! That was honestly the best concert I've ever been to (despite the dozens of feet I took to the head from those damn crowd surfers!) Your music is SO intense. Thanks a lot!

Posted by: *Mindy* on August 8, 2003 07:09 AM

I almost forgot...Sean, when you played "This is War" on the acoustic, it was so amazing.

Posted by: *Mindy* on August 8, 2003 07:19 AM

So im kinda confused.. when i typed in Smile Empty Soul in Kazaa, It came up with "meaningless" "Rain" and "sleepwalking" Are these your songs? If they are, when are you coming out with another CD with them on it. I have your CD and those songs arent on it.. Just wondering.. :-D You ROCK

Hey guys! Ya'll are the best. I saw you Friday Aug. 1, 2003 in Tampa with Trapt. I loved it! Especially when ya'll signed my shoes and Derek gave me a hug! Thanks for just taking a little bit of time for me and the rest of us. It means a lot to me and probably everone else. Even though I probably annoyed the shit out of Derek b/c I talked to him for like 20 mins. Haha. Thanks for everything guys. Love, Jamie

Hey Guys~
I don't meen to be cheesy but...Your songs really meen a lot to me. My dad just died about a month ago and my mom and I don't get along well. I first heard Bottom of a Bottle on the radio and I liked it right away, so i went out and bought the cd. I listen to it all the time. Nowhere Kids, The Other Side, and I Want My Life are the ones that have the most meaning to me. Thank you so much for your songs and I just love you guys!

I love you guys!My favorite songs on the album are "For You", and "This Is War". I was so mad because when you guys came to Cleveland, OH, I didnt get to go to the show because it was sold out. Hopfully you guys will return to Cleveland pretty soon, maybe for the Gravity Games.
