Savannah, Georgia, USA (2001 – present)

Circle Takes the Square (often abbreviated CTTS) is a band from Savannah, Georgia, USA. The band formed in 2001 as a four-piece and after their first two releases they lost a guitarist but gained another in late 2004. What listeners tend to notice first about the band is the loud screaming of both male and female vocals that often function in a kind of call and response. Skillful, chaotic drumming coupled with intense, highly technical bass/guitar work have served to separate the band from most others in the screamo genre. Highly diverse song structures (from meditative, droning intros to crushing choruses) have also assisted in carving their unique niche. The band completed a tour of the UK in mid-2004.

A digital EP, entitled Decompositions - Vol I, Chapter 1: Rites of Initiation, was released via the band’s bandcamp page on the 23rd of August, 2011. The band is set to release long-awaited follow-up to As the Roots Undo (2004) in Novermber 2011, to be entitled Decompositions - Vol I.

Members:
Kathy Coppola - Bass, Vocals

    The Decomposition EP is frickin' awesome, very impressive stuff - great emotion, nice riffage, interesting bits and pieces and shifts in tempo thrown in occasionally.

    What is everyone on about? ATRU was great, yes, and a milestone in hardcore/punk/spazz/whatever you wanna call it. But that WAS 8 years ago? Of course, A LOT will change.. I also wish they'd treat us to another ATRU, but Decompositions grew on me, it took a while, but I've finally come to appreciate their change, and have come to the realisation that Decompositions is actually a really great record. It's still CTTS, and I'm all for anything they make..

    Anyone who thought that they would put out another album like ATRU after not releasing anything for about 8 years is really setting themselves up for disappointment. That said, I think their EP is amazing, but i think the time between the EP release and the album release is too long. They missed a big window of opportunity to ride the wave that the EP created, i feel.

    Yeah, I guess I agree with that. Just like Decompositions it's not going to be able to compete with ATRU anyway. [2] Sadly, I used to love these guys back in the day.
