I don't know what you mean by new voice. Without Corgan they are nothing, he wrote every song that made it to a cd. Other than that he co-wrote them. His voice is everything for them.

Couldn't have said it better. Great debut album followed by a string of just okay generic music.

I hate his political minded lyrics and then his shift to music culture when he realize what a ****ing stupid flop it all is. And also he sings differently now. :( Also without Jimmy Chamberlin the SMashing Pumpkins are nothing. See FutureEmbrace, compare to Jimmy Chamberlin Complex.

Future Embrace was his solo album. Jimmy Chamberlin complex is bacially a cd of drum solos with music playing along. They both are good, but not Pumpkins songs. Did you hear of Adore. That is one of my favorite albums and Jimmy didn't play on it.

Just because the drums are intense doesn't mean it's a drum solo, gee whiz with other instruments playing and all gee whizzz. Future Embrace sucked. Also, half of Adore sounded awful.

Hey guy, why don't you stop mumbling? Thanks.

The Beatles

OK, we get it, we f*cking get it, you're really good. In fact, you're so good you let a Japanese spider monkey break your band up. Good job.

The Velvet Underground

A bunch of dumb sounding proto-punk songs so you can hear a few good songs that sound like traditional Arabic and Indian music put through a f*cking blender.

You're a poser and except for the Seventies your entire output is mediocre.

The Smiths
Your lead singer is a frustrating, rude, prejudiced, self-absorbed ****.

Bob Dylan
You can't sing and you ruin too many songs with your frigging harmonica.

I couldn't think of anything to say for Nick Drake.

How about:

Hey Nick Drake, how about you sing about things other than vague symbols in nature! :banghead:

BTW, I love Nick Drake.

Whats wrong with the occasional fanboy? You don't want everyone to just be the casual fan listening to AC/DC and Motorhead, do you?

Having said that,

OFFSPRING-- Your new album is very unoriginal and there are youtube videos dedicated to pointing out the similarities between the RAFRAG tracks and the songs you obviously ripped off.

You've made me partly embarassed to be a fan and when I tell someone I like you I'm just hoping they think of Smash, Ixnay, or Amaricana, and not "You're Gonna Go Far Kid" or "Kristie, are You Doing Okay?"

Totally, I hate how he makes a good song that stretches out to be 5 mins, just because he puts in a harmonica solo.

This is true.

Although I think he makes up for it with the way he arranges the lyrics with the music, they usually come together very nicely. It's the only way he could get away with something like Everything Means Nothing To Me.. lol.

ProggyMan 12-29-2008 08:49 PM

I don't even know the lyrics to that and it's spent time at #1 on my list of favorite Smith songs.

simplephysics 12-29-2008 08:54 PM

I don't think he says anything but Everything Means Nothing To Me in that song... yet it's still amazing. Not many artists can get away with that.

ProggyMan 12-29-2008 08:58 PM

Someone found the future as a statue in a fountain
At attention, looking backward in a pool of water
Wishes with a blue songbird on his shoulder
Who keeps singing over everything
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
I picked up the song and found my picture in the paper
The reflection in the water showed an iron man still trying to salute
People from a time when he was everything he's supposed to be
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me

simplephysics 12-29-2008 09:00 PM

Well **** me. I guess it's been awhile since I've listened to Figure 8.

One or two decent tracks apart- one long boring whinge.

Like, I know, right? I've been listening to The Wall recently, and I had been puzzling over it, asking myself whether it is just me or there actually are only about 2 out of 26 tracks that are particularly good on the whole thing? So why is this a big favourite among Floyd fans?

It's a trailer trash favorite, not a fan favorite. I find it rather embarrassing that the United States embraced The Wall completely (23x platinum) but practically ignored their earlier (read: "better") works. That's not to say that The Wall is without its moments (Goodbye Blue Sky, Young Lust, Comfortably Numb), but it really was a wholesale departure from their usual style.

Alfred 12-30-2008 03:58 PM

Lol, for a while there I thought it was The Wall that was their big album, and not Dark Side Of The Moon.

lucifer_sam 12-30-2008 03:59 PM

It WAS their big album. That's what sucks.

Alfred 12-30-2008 04:06 PM

Didn't DSOTM sell more?

ABBA

Ring Ring is okay and none of their albums live up to their best singles.

Comus 12-31-2008 07:08 AM

I have to agree with the hatred of the Wall, I just don't get how it could sell so much, there's just something about it that makes it feel incomplete, boring and generally awful. It falls into the same category as The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, both albums promise so much and deliver so little.

Alfred 12-31-2008 10:21 AM

There's about three good tracks on The Wall.

Roygbiv 12-31-2008 10:27 AM

I'm guessing it's the immersion factor that saves the Wall, but I found it too.... flamboyant for that to happen. There are some individual tracks that are catchy, but none warrant the purchase.

Dr. Yellow Black 12-31-2008 11:46 AM

I just don't get how that's the first album anyone gets from Pink Floyd unless they were told to get otherwise. Any kid in my school except for a handful only like Pink Floyd for the wall.

Alfred 12-31-2008 11:53 AM

Meh, I listened to Wish You Were Here first, that was just a random pick. Didn't want to go for The Wall or Dark Side Of The Moon right away.

But did you go on your own free will and listen to it? Or did you hear from people that they were good and they told you to hear the Wall because it's the best. I don't think I'm explaining it how I mean.

dac 12-31-2008 01:49 PM

People like The Wall because it's the cliche stoner album. End of story.
