    This band is SO slept on. I’m shocked you guys found it and so glad you reacted to it!! They have a lot of rich and great stuff. “Musical Chairs”, “Tall Tales Taste Like Sour Grapes”, “A Wolf Descends on the Spanish Sahara” are great choices

      Love these guys, they were from around my hometown and I got to see them when they were young. Breaks my heart they aren’t together anymore. 😢

    The lead singer uses throat singing - that's why you're hearing multiple tones. He is such an insane talent.

    I saw them live so many times in the early 2000s and to this day I still think they're the most talented musicians I've seen live. Solid performances every time and the crowd was ALWAYS matching their energy.

    Such a great band, fantastic to see people reacting to them. They have two wonderful albums. They have a habit of creating very rich songs texturally, and his voice is so epic. Musical Chairs, Dance of the Manatee, Whiskey and Ritalin- all great songs.

    My absolute favorite band since the first time I saw them in 2003! Simply the best for so many reasons. So thankful to see others enjoying them as well. They're so underrated it's ridiculous ❤

    As others have mentioned, check out dance of the manatee, musical chairs, and walls of Jericho. Dance of the manatee has a wicked acoustic version and musical chairs has a violinist session version. So glad people are finding this very unique and amazing band, hopefully Darroh is reading these comments one day and gets the guys back together.

    I know these guys and so in awe yall played them. I went to high-school near them in Texas and byfar the most slept on band of the 2000s/10s. If you haven't seen the live videos that's what you're missing out on. The most explosive show I've ever seen. No matter how many times I saw them!

    8:45 WHAT. A. COMPLIMENT. Gave me chills. Has to be the Greatest compliment a musician or band can receive. As someone absolutely obsessed with music to a fault, and never once having picked up an instrument, that is exactly what FTM were born to do. Wish more people knew about them. So thanks for sharing their music through this reaction!🤘

    yeah i saw these guys live first and last time sadly down here in L.A. they were at the troubadour, i saw them live at the end, i was there to watch my friends perform there, they went by the band called Opus Dai. They've played before fair to midland and i don't regret watching fair to midland perform that night, bought their CD that night as well. Band members were cool with my friends. XD they were silly. Oh and met Serj from system of a down that night as well, had this band under his label but I don't know what happened to the band sadly. I heard somethings but I don't know if it was true, the band is/was great when they were around.
