Pie™ Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I guess you all have songs we don't like made by bands you love... Just give some examples Here's some of mine; Nightwish - The Carpenter Metallica - Dirty Window, Frantic, and pretty much everything else on St Anger (and much of the other crap that came after the black album ) Red Hot Chilipeppers - Venice Queen And lots of more... More examples? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obi Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Like you, pretty much everything on the St. Anger album. But also, the new Staind cd kinda sucked. =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebbers Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 i hate it when bands start out like hardcore or heavy metal and then go soft over time like Staind, Incubus, and some other bands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_One Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Yeah, most tracks on St Anger are pretty poor. Also, I have trouble listening to a few songs on Faith No More's Album of the Year. I guess I'm just an Angel Dust whore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBomber Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Shut Up and Dance - Aerosmith And most of the songs on Aerosmith's new album, Honkin On Bobo..... stupid blues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckcsaber Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Eh, everyone makes a few bad ones. I, for one, hate late fleetwood mac, mainly the stuff they made in the 80's. Their late 70's stuff was good as well, but it was nothing compared to Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac in the late 60's. They were the ****. And Z, I'm telling you, that album is gold man. Aerosmith doesn't even play it like its the blues. They play blues songs but they play it hard and dirty. It's a great album. Just give it time. But the title is awful...

Angel Dust and King for a Day are better in my opinion. As for songs I hate by bands I like, I'd have to say Scream of the Butterfly and Morticians Flame by Acid Bath. Too soft.

Kain Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I hate it so much, I don't even know what its called, but its the song KoRn did with Nas on Take a Look in the Mirror. Ugh...why Jon? Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So am I reading that they piss on the greatness of the blues by screeching and riffing on it? Aerosmith was a band that I grew up with in the early 70's, but they were always an 'also-ran' ... it seems they are over-appreciated by virtue of longevity (like the 'irrellevent since the early 70's Stones) Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datheus Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 I have trouble listening to most of the Pink Floyd stuff from Syd Barret's era. I also normally only listen to the first half of The Who: Who's Next... I dunno, I listen to the bands that I do because I love every song.

ckcsaber Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Originally posted by txa1265 So am I reading that they piss on the greatness of the blues by screeching and riffing on it? Mike Besides the fact that the "great" blues songs were defined by simple riffs and chords, I would say you don't know what you're talking about. And if you are trying to down-play Joe Perry's guitar skills just because he is known for playing straight out rock and roll, you sir are in the wrong. Joe can handle the blues man. He's got some skill. You may be right about the screeching part though. That IS something Steve Tyler does, but he does it well. Hey, its a definite step up from what they have been releasing since the late 80's and throughout the 90's. And it's nice for a change to see a band play the blues without such reverence. I'm not saying the blues doeesn't deserve this, which it does, but it's been done countless times. It's a nice change to see a popluar current band play the blues in a different way. If you wan't to listen to the "greatness" of the blues, by no means, go listen to a Buddy Guy cd. But if you want to listen to something a little different, played by a current band, listen to the cd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txa1265 Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Originally posted by ckcsaber And it's nice for a change to see a band play the blues without such reverence. I misinterpreted what you were saying. When you said 'they don't play it like the blues', I interpreted that like Britney Spears doing Beatles covers and someone saying 'they don't sound so old and complicated like those beatles yukkies' ... if you get my meaning. The blues were always played hard and dirty as well, so I wasn't sure how to interpret that. It is always nice to see some of these aging rockers do more than prop themselves up on their laurels, act 30 and pretend they matter as more than a nostalgia trip. Most don't. Jeff Beck is one of the few actually doing something I want to hear not for his history as being the most talented guitarist of the brit-rock era (yes, including Claptop & Page) but as an innovative current artist with something to say. I can't say that I've ever placed Joe Perry as more than 2nd tier - which isn't bad. I look at him much the same as I do Alex Lifeson - there are others who were doing basically the same thing the same way before him (in Lifeson's case it was Alan Holdsworth, in Perry you hear Page and all of those other late 60's guys). I haven't heard much since they were trying to re-make themselves as some sort of MTV-era American-Stones circus act in the late 80's ... I just don't keep up with pop music.

ckcsaber Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Yeah, txa, I understand what you mean about aging rockers. Every time I hear about the Who on tour I again, I can't help but hang my head in shame. And you're right about Joe Perry. I don't mean to make him sound like some guitar god, but he is second rate at best. That doesnt mean he can't play some good stuff, but he has nothing on some of the better guitarists out there.

Rad Blackrose Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 I agree with the general consensus here: Metallica after the Black album has sucked. Grassroots by 311 is the only CD from 311 that I refuse to listen to. I'm sure there's more, let me dig through my CD list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Homer Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Green Day - Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) I love Green Day, but they came out with an acoustic song? I want good hard riffs and punk when listening to Green Day. I like a good slow song, but for that I listen to Norah Jones or Cat Stevens NOT Green Day. It just doesn't fit their style. So, I never listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
