[QUOTE=Villein;31328024]Why would Capcom sue them if they hire them to preform for them at events like comicon?[/QUOTE]
because the lawsuit is fake
Site is back up, Apparently [url=http://www.last.fm/music/The%2520Megas]The Megas[/url] hacked them.

that was a joke in their mailing list email. did you seriously not pick up the obviously jokey context?
but yeah, they confirmed the lawsuit shit is obviously fake.
I was at a music festival with them a year ago. It was pretty cool. They were the headliners but their frontman accidentally ate some weed cookies and freaked out and had to go to the hospital, so they played the next day.

[editline]26th July 2011[/editline]
My friends and I are gonna go to the August 19th one. Couldn't be a cooler time. It's the day after I arrive in AZ and only a few days before my birthday. I found all this out on the day I decide to wear my Protomen shirt.
I felt almost [i]too[/i] cool.

Raul Panther is such a sexy man
if I were a woman
oh the things I'd do
I'm pretty disappointed in The Protomen. That AZ show was cancelled, which happens BUT the fact they made dates without booking venues is beyond retarded. They STILL haven't even acknowledged that the show was cancelled.
NOTHING 'S GONNA STOP US NOW EXCEPT NOT BOOKING A VENUE TOUR 2011
I mixed this up and it was wonderful.

WAIT A FUCKING SECOND, I MISSED PROTOMEN THIS SUMMER? FUCK MY LIFE.
inb4 i get like a bucketful of clocks and boxes
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;32012797]The Protomen is all of the fucking shit.

The last panel looks like "Suit Begins!"
Still haven't fully gotten into Act 2.
A few tracks are incredible, but I still find it quite disappointing after the debut album.
The hate in vengeance is insane, the chorus reminds me of how i used to feel when i fought.
They played near me on the 10th I think? Unfortunately I never heard of them until now.
Do the Protomen have any other albums or is this it?
Just two.

Somewhat excited!
Oh man I have JUST got into listening to this, I was instantly hooked on Act 2, and while it took a few listens to get into Act 1, I can't stop listening to it now. I wish someone had told me about The Protomen earlier, every single song is great.
So I realize this hasn't been posted in for a while but I got my pre-order of "The Protomen Present: A Night of Queen"
and
HOLY SHIT IT'S FUCKING AMAZING, Raul Panther (the lead singer) pays some fucking great justice to Freddie Mercury, he sounds so much like him at some parts it's fuckin' crazy, Once this album is actually released I'd say you go get it. Even if you're just a Queen fan.
Does anybody know if there ever gonna go to belgium?
There should be an animated movie adaptation of Act II, done entrerly in the style of the album cover with only black, blue, red and orange.

Why are they not coming to New York :(
Cause I think they did an East Coast tour already.
Have there been any hints to act III yet?
Not that I've heard of.
I don't think they've talked any about it.
[QUOTE=NanoSquid;36704919]Have there been any hints to act III yet?[/QUOTE]
I don't know if they say this at the end of every show, but at the end of the show on Monday, KILROY said something along the lines of "The next time we see you [Cleveland], the world will be a different place."
So uh, maybe? I think they said that Act III is in production, but I don't know of any sources.
Sorry to necro the thread, but I wanted to share some awesome Protomen-inspired Alt Art done by dasopink on the Protomen forums. He did these in the style of J.C. Leyendecker (same guy who the TF2 art is based on). God, what I wouldn't give for an animated movie adaptation in this style.
