there's a new strung out CD that came out TODAY! I want it!
yup got that and the new social d greatest hits neiner neiner
okayyy, i gave this an honest listen because i felt bad talking crap....and it's ALL fusion. it doesn't ever do it's own thing. sounds like punk/hardcore/metal/butt rock/emo/etc. it's all style points and showing off. very good guitar work though. it sounds like the opening band you watch from the bar as you wait for something interesting to come on.
i listened to it yesterday twice while i was working on my new place. i really liked it but i was a bit distracted so i need to listen a few more times. seemed like a lot of it was a continuation of their last album which i loved. they are awesome
i listened again today in my car and i liked it more. musically it's unbelievable.
I listened to this driving around today - I wasn't too impressed. I think 'The elements of sonic defiance' is their best album, and the last one and this one aren't as tight as that one. Lyrically, I think their new album is a 4 out of 10. They always have good guitar work and interesting composition, but if the lyrics suck, who cares? I think they were listening to too many Ataris albums when they wrote the latest album.
I like the new album but I agree it's not my favorite. A couple songs I've listened to and thought that they sound just like a few songs on the last one.
