I never really liked Meshuggah, but SYL is alright. And most of the time people dont like bands because they arent all gimmicks.

Example:

Whats so good about NIN new stuff? All they do in their video is play the song!

THATS WHAT THEIR SUPPOSED TO FUCKING DO! Just because theres not a million dollars worth of special effects added to the video or they dont parade around with masks and jumpsuits, doesnt mean their not a good band.

Although i agree with you, most of the new stuff bands come out with sucks shit. But i do happen to like both NIN and System of a Downs new stuff. Hell you cant make a hit record every time you put a new one in circulation..

"With Teeth" isn't what I expected it to be, first album in almost 6 years, you expect it to be the best damn thing NIN would put out, especially with all the hype surrounding it...but in the end, it wasn't anything great, it was just a typical NIN album, and that's why I don't like it. Don't get me excited about something if it's only going to be mediocre.

That's just like whenever the new GNR will come out, although I'd be surprised if anybody bought that.

Yeah i understand, there was a lot of hype but it is that, mediocre. But i still respect, that at least they havent changed their music to sounding like complete shit.

And i think i will pass on the new GNR album..:o

they may be a good band - but i dont understand the point of making a video or performing live (once you're a name) if you are just going to stand there and play well.

I hate videos to begin with .. after the 2nd or 3rd year of their existence everythint that could be done was done .. they are all a big bore now. it serves to let hou have a peak at the people who are making the music and that novelty wears off pretty quick.
I always thought it was cool when there was a bit of mystery - and you didnt know who the band really was or what they looked like - and the music spoke for itself.

as far as live performances .. i enjoy a bit of showmanship - a bit of communication with the audience.
Nothing is more pointless than to watch people stand on stage .. doing their thing .. unless you're another musician and you want to see how certain things are done.

a band without a personality is like a person without a personality - even if they have something to say - they are boring.

I'd rather stay home and put the album on.

the whole 'hate the audience' thing hasnt been cool since the pistols .. and they did it in such a cartoon fashion it was fun..

bottom line, you have to give people a reason for leaving their homes and forking over the money.

@Jay, the song grew on me, and the new Mudvayne CD gets a 4/10 for me. The only good songs are the first 4, the rest make me lose interest faster than me fucking your mom for the billionth time over.
There are several good songs that take several listens to get into them.


and as for nin, read this review: http://www.tinymixtapes.com/musicrev...inch_nails.htm


and i cant get fucking byob out of my godamn head:o

that one bloke (not the lead singer, the other one) sings fairly good, but just sounds funny when he's screaming.
