first peral harbor now this.......... let me start by saying alternative music is good if you have the right mix. punk and rap, jazz and rock, regge and punk, but not F-ING JPOP AND SCREAMO. if you told a record producer you envisioned a genre of japanese techno and screaming teenagers you would get A. laughed at right to hell and B. you would get the musical flop ( i use that term lightly) FACT. they first started off touring with, acually one of my favorite screamo groups and coolest band name ever IWRESLEDABEARONCE ( i will discus them later) and have grown in popularity since. this being there first album i will forgive them of a couple things. first, the lackluster songs and boring song titles. i almost fell asleep twice wile listening to the song 45 days. second, the songs are just..... i dont know... dull. with repeating instrument parts over and over again i thought my ipod was broken and just replayed the same song over and over. i will say this though, for a band formed in japan played in the u.s i hold a small shred of hope that they will get better. but that shred vanishes after listening to there song stretch my arms. ugh
so i give there first album 3 sad facts (sorry) out of 10
p.s. the album cover sucks to.
and now for something completely different a man with 6 testicles........ oh wait thats something else... now heres a good, no, GREAT BAND AND THERE AWSOME NEW CD!!!!!!!!!!!. NOW HERE THE REVIEW OF MY 4th FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME HERES.......
IT ONLY CAME OUT 3 DAYS AGO AND ITS THE MOST LISTENED TO ALBUM ON MY IPOD.
imagin if rise against had a sense of twisted humor and you would have the political force that is NOFX (its another play on words like no-effects). know for having the best album names evar such as, the war on errorism and punk in drublic this band of misfits plays some of the best punk anthems this side of california (were the band is from) and continues to still be awsome skate music to this day. ther latest album COASTER is already on itunes top 10 alternative albums and its one of my favorite to come out all year (this and mastodons CRACK THE SKYY). in most cases, i buy a cd and only 70% of the songs are good. this album however has no filler songs and every one sounds like a true original (including one song were the singer , mike burkett, has an interesting conversation with a canadian lesbian at a german concert). iv listened to every song on this album at least twenry times and its still enjoyable, my favorites were THE QUITTER (a song about alcoholics anonymous), WE CALLED IT AMERICA, SUITS AND LADDERS and BEST GOD IN SHOW. but my favorite part of this album, the bass. its not just the same note over and over again it actually sounds like an instrument played by a talented person. so kudos to the one of the greatest punk bands ever to make me consider becoming a vegaterian (consider). so to anyone who has had, seen or admired a mohawk this is a must buy and my favorite album to come out this year so far and a must listen.
i give it 10 seperations of church and skate out of 10
thats all for now, and please check out COASTER by NOFX (they are paying me in radishes to advertise but this is still one sweet album).
have you listened to it yet..................no...................well you have 15 seconds to get to youtube and listen to them or i will mentally kill your family from my bathroom (were i update). so long. for now.
