Re: The Official BIG WRECK Thread

I love it. It has everything that makes the band great. Full throttle from start to finish. I didn't really get into them until Grace Street honestly, but I've gone back and listened to the rest of their albums and they quickly shot to the top 5 of my favorite bands list. Insanely underrated.

Re: AB VI Speculation

Simplify. I don't mean that in a structure sense, but in a stop forcing things sense. Mix things up, take risks, go progressive... but do it in a natural and organic way as others have said. Experiment but put a reason behind doing it. A lot of that has to do with the production/mixing too. I'm over...

Re: greats from AB111

I find that lately, I've almost been listening to this album more than their others. It might be their simplest in terms of song structure, but that also makes it easy to come back to. It's accessible (but has a lot of depth if you listen closely), the production is amazing (especially compared to t...

More AB-related GIFs sounds like a great idea! The legendary Sun Drop :D http://i.imgur.com/aOdgIHg.gif Make them!

Re: The long time member

That is insanely cool. I try to keep an eye on F1, Formula E, and Le Mans. I'll definitely have to watch that New York race. Being from the US, I mainly follow NASCAR and IndyCar, but generally if it has 4 wheels and goes fast, I like it :D It's also nice to know that F1 likes AB! They have quite a ...

For those who do not know, Claudio is a world class photographer (in between AB concerts and professional auto racing). I have a few prints framed and hanging around here in Colorado. You can see some of his beautiful work at https://chico.smugmug.com. Check it out! Professional auto racing, eh? I'...

Re: "My Champion" Lyric Video

I really like the song. Like most AB songs, it seems to get better with every listen. It sounds like it could have fit somewhere on their first album, but at the same time, it shows how far they've come. Sure it's radio friendly, but in this day and age, the radio needs more songs like that one. *Ed...

Re: "Show Me a Leader" discussion

That would be because it's utter shite. BSC have turned into a radio-friendly "rock" band who always come out in interviews and say "we really went back to our roots on this record!" and "we put our heart and soul into it" and all that and it sounds like piss. Radio-fr...

Volbeat - Seal the Deal and Let's Boogie.... I want to like these guys. I'm really trying, but there's just something about them that bugs me and I don't know what.

Re: The Official "Total Randomness" Thread

imo, the s word and the a word in lyrics just sound really cheezy. F word can sound ok depending upon the song. I'm not really a fan of any of those words in lyrics. It depends though, like you said. I just don't like when a band's only focus in a song is to cram in as many as possible. Like wow, y...

Re: Saliva

Saliva used to be one of my favorite bands. I loved their first few albums. Even bought their self-titled debut, which I think is pretty hard to find. But like Basti said, they eventually started to go downhill. I'll be sure to check out some stuff from the Amaru era, though.
