Forgot about this album

Album Rating: 4.8

time to remember!

I'm putting myself back to '98 in 3,2,1..Swoosh!!!


Knew Owen was quality fucking amazing goal against the Argies, fucks with all these bottles of reef and bacardi breezer? You heard Massive Attacks new one? Fucking blinder.

What's this? Far? Yeah go on stick it on. It's same old, same old, same old. When are things going to change?

This is actually one of those 'marker in the sand' albums for me - I quite liked this but if something took just one more step towards emo from here I hated that style



I knew I was leaving dem kids behind - I was all grown up

Album Rating: 4.8

never underestimate the destructive power of change doof

Always fear change

Album Rating: 3.0

I was 19, I could tell stuff was now being marketed at younger kids than me - My Chemical Romance type of stuff



It's part of a music listeners young evolution



This may seem a harmless album but it was part of the enemy, the bad change

Yeah I was 18/19 but I was riding the wave of Ladies and Gents, OKC, Mezzanine and blasting the past. Dylan, Who and Beatles.

It was Linkin Park and My Chemical Romance a few years later that really put the breaks on and for the first time ever I thought 'fuck me I must be getting old this is shit'

did you just equate this to MCR you swine

Having said that Korn had been going a few years, Slipknot were knocking around at this point in time. Total fucking shit.

Album Rating: 3.0

I liked some nu metal, there is no distinction between Korn and Roots/Deftones really.



Slipknot were later and were too obviously marketed for the kids for me. They were a T-Shirt band. A mix of Korn and Fear Factory made by a pack of bum sniffing dad aged dudes who should have known better but couldn't resist the benjamins.



This album was mixing a bit of nu metal with the new breed of clean emo vocals. The vocals here are so close to being really irritating but just about stay acceptable. Anything with these type of vox (yes, fucking Weezer too) in the 90s is 100% part of an evolutionary path leading to MCR and Panic at ye Disco. To claim otherwise is futile.

1) these aren't clean emo vocals 2) there's no nu metal here at all 3) there's still a near decade difference

There was something at the core of roots that rocked the socks off.
White Pony was 'different' in that there was an originality there and the band were doing their 'thing' until that bullshit back to school vid soured it.

But yeah MCR, Slipknot. All invented antagonism to brand and put on a t-shirt.
