I just read today that The Blueprint 3 will be out on September 11th. So we all get Jay-Z back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmteam Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 My thoughts on Green Day have pretty much always been that I don't mind listening to them, but I don't really seek them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshot7 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I love Green Day, but this new album is fairly disappointing. I have a few theories, mainly that the album is too long and it's sequenced wrong - but the main failure is the production. Butch Vig is just wrong for them - their old stuff, while well-produced, had an aggression to the songs that is lacking from this album. He sanitized them, and while doing so, made them boring. It's too bad. I'm curious to hear how the songs sound live, and I'll bet they're better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about the production - too glossy, too many effects, especially that "old-timey radio sound" on some of the vocals. Green Day has always been a terrific live band. I'm very excited to see them next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 7, 2009 -> 12:11 AM) I really do dig Panic Switch by Silversun Pickups. That album has slowly taken over my world, Panic Switch, The Substitution, The Royal We, and There is no secrets this Year are constantly on in my car. I just started checking out Carnavas again because it didnt stick with me the first time, and I found out how much I love Common Reactor as well, that song is fabulous. I dont know what it is about the Pickups, but it just takes a little while for them to sink in for me and then I realize how much I like them. Such a unique sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwolf68 Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) QUOTE (Sonik22 @ May 31, 2009 -> 07:56 PM) Does anyone else on here a huge fan of Chevelle? I bought their CD with "The Red" on it and was disapointed. Probably my own fault as I had not researched that band enough (a little too nu metally for me). Defintely not ragging your band, because to each his own, but other than "The Red" and one other song on that album, I really didn't like it.

Actually, I don't think you should get flamed. I didn't think I liked Mayer at first, but he was doing a concert on some satellite channel one night and I was bored so I started watching. He was playing this amazing blues stuff. It was very impressive, fresh and unique. He's a tremendous musician and while I hated that 'pop song' he did about Jennifer Love Hewitt's body, that cat has more skills than many people know about.

Cali Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 The singer for Three Days Grace seriously has to be in the running for worst lyricist in recent rock history. That guy is a cliche machine... I heard that "I Don't Care" song on the radio today...Wowza.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I am late getting into them but I really like the Eagles of Death Metal. Is there anyone in that band that has been in the Foo Fighters or Queens of the Stone Age cause it feels like there is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Just heard 3 new tracks from the upcoming Dinosaur Jr. disc. Nothing groundbreaking, but solid Dino material as usual. I'm really liking "Over It" in particular. No Chicago date on their mini-tour yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 If Dino Jr comes to Chicago, I'll have to go. I also echo the comments on Silversun Pickups. As for Manchester Orchestra, I've listened to the new album a bit, I like it, but I think the more I listen the more I'll like it. A caller on Q101 the other day called "I've Got Friends" a "mix between Modest Mouse and Radiohead" which is...somewhat accurate, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
