Aint No Right

What pisses me off is that they just recorded that song like 5 or 6 months ago. Why would you record a song that you can't pull off live, when you're a live band and you know you're going to be playing it? U2 does it all the time. Hell, sometimes they can't even pull off songs that they recorded 20...

The lesson isn't that you shouldn't meet your idols, but that 99% of people are dicks and you shouldn't think otherwise. I don't know about 99%. Maybe 55%. For the record, the majority of so-called celebrities I've met accidently in informal situations seem to have been pretty decent people. A fer-...

Let this be a lesson. Never meet your idols, they will always disappoint. It's one of the unwritten laws of my job... "Never work for a band you like, 'cause it will ruin them for you." :nod: Tell me about it. I got my company involved with the Van Halen organization back in '98 and that was a huge...

HA! Excellent!

It kind of ran backwards for me. I got into them at several different points in the 80's. A good friend who was really into punk got me into the first two albums around mid '83 and I really dug tunes like "Follow The Leaders" and "Wardance." At the time, I was really into The Lords Of The New Church...

Lolz "Outside the Gate", the forever-be-damned Killing Joke album. It is pretty awful, and should never have been released under the band's name. Thankfully, they followed it up with that blazing "Extremities..." album. I am interested to know what you love so much about KJ2003, and what your favou...

After just a few listens, my opinion of it dropped. I'm going to do what I usually do with new albums that are just ok from artists I've followed for some time - rip maybe 3 or 4 songs into WAV files for my iPod, etc, add those tunes to the band's "favorites" playlist and file away the cd.

I find that strange. If a band I use to love changed so much to the point where I hated them I would go to a different message board. Don't get me wrong, I'm not calling you out at all or telling you to leave (seriously, not at all), but I guess it just confuses the shit out of me as to why people ...

But the production, I will defend, becuase the album is supposed to sound like that. I was just by the place in Prague last month where they recorded it, and it is indeed a hellhole. Dark, dank and creepy as fuck. The girl I was with insisted on waiting outside. I'm assuming you've read the liner n...

Heh, you probably just got Decon banned from Mikey's place.

Is it me, or has everyone from Mike's board given up on that place, jumped ship and moved here the past week.

Those people were assholes. I am glad it's gone.

Man....... just stop.

i liked it better than the original version. listen to it again. i wasn't sure about it on the first listen but i dig it now. It's a pretty interesting cover...but better than the original? Not even close. Agreed. I liked it and thought White's approach of taking it further towards gospel blues was...

but the one following it, 2006's "Hosannas From The Basements Of Hell" is among their worst albums ever. You are out of your mind. That album was amazing. Granted, it takes a few listens to sort itself out because, but once it does, it's like the skies are falling around you. There are some incredi...

It's helping me get through a bottle of Bacardi.

we're saying the same thing. hip or go die, it's all the same displeasure. i personally think sitek's view of jane's addiciton is a comedic one. i think his interaction was only to fuck with the bad. so he could go back to his hip band and make mocking jokes about how vain dave is and how crazy per...

Read through some of the threads a bit more thoroughly before proclaiming yourself the sole martyr of the TGEA he-man haters club. look, flat top, you twist words. i'm only saying you shouldn't be afraid to say dave sitek should die a painful death for encouraging this album, without the positive n...

i find it ironic that sonny shut down his board because of supposed fighting and negativity, and then we start this one where everyone is getting along... and he comes along to stir up a bunch of fighting and negativity. You are message board poison, sir. Ehh, despite his current angry man persona,...

Hey, I call 'em as I see 'em, big boy.

sonny sure gets people all fired up. i don't really like the album but i'm glad some do and who am i to say they shouldn't. you should speak up. just because some like it doesn't mean others should be allowed to say they don't for fear they'll ruin the sycophants good time. if i don't like the albu...

And you seriously think present day Jane's Addiction would fit in to all this and not come of as hypocritical shills looking to piggyback on this "anti-corporate" mess of a gathering like Morello often does? no, certainly not in a morello way. and certainly not us to jane's fans in the know. like i...
