Boston, United States (2003 – 2008)
The Receiving End of Sirens was a five-piece rock band based out of Boston, Massachusetts, that is commonly referred to as TREOS for short. The band consisted of Alex Bars (Vocals/Guitar), Brendan Brown (Vocals/Bass Guitar), Nate Patterson (Guitar),Brian Southall(Guitar), and Andrew Cook (Drums). The band was formed in 2003.
Andrew came up with the name after hearing police sirens one day at work.
The band originally consisted of all of the above except for Brian, with ex-Fake ID singer Ben Potrykus as the Lead Vocalist and frontman of the band. Alex and Brendan were friends from high school who attended Northeastern University in Boston. There they met Andrew and they began to form a band. Old high school friend Nate, who was attending Southeastern University in Florida, relocated to Springfield, MA to join the band. Ben, who was in high school at the time, was recruited through the internet.
The band released two demos (a total of five songs) during this time period.
After some sort of conflict that may have involved the rest of the band’s willingness to look for a relatively large record label, Ben left TREOS to form The Lido Venice, a folk project. At this point, the band met Casey Crescenzo (originally from California) while working at Urban Outfitters and he joined the band.

I like As Cities Burn and TREOS. It would be cool if the merged. And their musical stylings match up in the sense they're both pretty experimental. They'd make it work.

Well yeah I agree with that, I just thought it was ignorant to say that ACB blows... But good musicians are adaptable. No two ACB or TREOS albums had similar musical styling to begin with, but they're all good (in my opinion). However, I don't honestly think a merger like that would work, it was more of a joke than anything.

Just because you don't like them doesn't make it true. That's your own opinion.
