artists on the rise or fall

Violent & Funky · 09-10-2010, 12:16 PM

Rise: No Age, The Thermals, Surfer Blood, Free Energy

Fall: Alkaline Trio, 311, The Hives, KoRn, System of a Down (done?), Incubus (done?), Bloc Party

I tried to only include bands that haven't been named...

Fall: Eminem. Talk about a sell out...

System of a Down is on hiatus...they ended with Hypnotize/Mezmerize, which I think were great albums. I wouldn't be able to judge whether or not they are on the fall until they start making more music.

I completely agree with Incubus. They have been getting progressively worse with each album.

Korn isn't on the fall, they have fallen. I don't think you can get much worse or irrelevant than they are right now. Unless you are Fred Durst. Korn hasn't done anything that made waves since Untouchables...maybe.

We have different tastes in SoaD then. My three favorite are the self-titled, Toxicity, and Steal this Album!, in that order...

And you don't like Hypnotize/Mezmerize at all? It's understandable that you would rank them last (in all honesty, so do I), but that doesn't necessarily mean they are bad.

They're okay, but I like the other ones a lot better and would just rather listen to those or a different band with my time...
