Ep. 275: Circa Survive w/ Colin Frangicetto

Support my new Pareon B-Sides Tier by clicking here Circa Survive was an American rock band formed in Philadelphia in 2004 by vocalist Anthony Green and guitarist Colin Frangicetto, later joined by Brendan Ekstrom, Nick Beard, and Steve Clifford. Green was previously the frontman of Saosin, bringing a distinct voice that became central to Circa Survive's identity. The band released their debut Juturna in 2005 on Equal Vision Records, followed by On Letting Go. Their third album, Blue Sky Noise, arrived in 2010 via Atlantic Records, marking their most mainstream release. In 2012, the band went independent with Violent Waves, before releasing Descensus and The Amulet on Sumerian and Hopeless Records. In 2022, Circa Survive announced an indefinite hiatus, which Green confirmed in 2025 had become a permanent disbandment, later reemerging as the vocalist for L.S. Dunes.
