Their first full-length album, Fragments of an Untold Story Born By Shunning The Opportunity (1999), released on Break Even Records, gained them significant credit in the local Philadelphia Suburbs.
In late 2002, This Day Forward signed with Equal Vision Records and added guitarist Brendan Ekstrom who would go on to join Colin in Circa Survive.
[1] After the disbanding of This Day Forward, Frangicetto met up with friend and vocalist Anthony Green, then lead singer of the California rock band Saosin who, on the surface seemed on track to success.
[2] Green had decided to take a short amount of time off to return to Philadelphia and "hang out for a little bit" when he met with Colin and they began "jamming and writing every day".
After five years of writing and recording in "hotel rooms, tour buses, and apartments" Colin found himself with enough material to release a full-length studio album under the name Psychic Babble.
The album, titled My Brother's Ears/My Sister's Eyes, was released on August 18 under Yenta Records[8] and features Colin on every instrument including vocals, guitar, drums, and bass.
His influences range from Esao Andrews, who has created most of the work used for Circa's album covers, to Christopher Davison, Natalia Fabia, Jeremy Geddes and Picasso.
