The Official Against Me! Thread

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Good man ^^

Exactly on Pints of guinness, its boring acoustic.

It needs the speed and the AND JUST LIKE JAMES I'LL BE DRINKING IRISH TONIGHT! bit where it all stops and goes into the chorus etc.

[Bad Blood]

I like the acoustic, but the whole feeling of the song is in the RAR version.

The acoustic EP is fuc'king awesome as a whole though.

[Fisticuff111]

So, I'm sitting here listening to 'Tom Gable Live at C.O.R.E.', and it is ****ING AMAZING!!! 'Untitled 2' is one of the most amazing songs ever heard and the version of 'Those Anarcho Punks Are Mysterious...' blows me away. Truly an amazing set by Tom.

Is is absolutely amazing. My favorite AM! bootleg and probably my favorite 'album'. Untitled 2 is my favorite AM! song ever as well. The lyrics are so good.

My slsk is Skrunnch and I have a bunch of bootlegs/vids everything if anyone wants it. Message me first.

eDIT: 'We did it all for Don' is absolutely haunting on this too. Gives me the chills everytime I hear it.

[Brain Toad]

Eric has a huge AM! penis.

[AIRIC]

Yeah my AM! penis is pretty big isn't it.

[Brain Toad]

Slighty bigger than my Two Gallants penis, but not as big as my DK penis.

[AIRIC]

I wouldn't do such a thing.

[Liebensaft]

Gross. And yeah, that Tom Solo Live thing is awesome.

[TakeWarning]

I must acquire this so-called live thing.

[good rats]

You really should.

It's so good. Tom screamin lungs out..:D

[Weezerfan_returns]

I love tom gabel.

[Fisticuff111]

I love tom gabel.

Ditto.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I wish i had time to talk to him more when i met him.

[Fisticuff111]

Has anyone else heard the version of 'Rice and Bread' from 'Live April, 18th in Common Grounds, Gainesville'? It's played really slow and has a lot of different lyrics. It still starts out with "How can you not find everything you need in all of this?", and he says "In these desperate times, we are desperate people" later in the song. Anyways, it's amazing and one of my favorite AM! songs, although the quality could be better. So, I'm wondering if anyone else has this version...

Yeah, it's awesome.

[good rats]

Yeah, it's awesome.
Yea I've got it as well. It's great.

And I love Sink, FLorida, Sink off it as well. Toms vocals are amazing.

[Fisticuff111]

They've remastered both Vivida Vis and the self titled EP and both still sound the same and both aren't that good :(

Sorry to bring up an old subject, but these 'remastered' songs, do they happen to have "Revised" anywhere in the title? Like 'IAmCitizen(Revised).mp3'. Let me know, thanks.

[AIRIC]

I don't think so.

[good rats]

Is there anywhere I could download AM! dvd? I haven't seen it in ages and I don't have any money to buy it..

I'm trying Soulseek but I can't find anything..

[Brain Toad]

Do you know how to use torrents and such? Try http://www.punktorrents.com or http://punkhc.dyndns.org/ Both require signups and PunkHC requires seeding to keep your account.

[SantaDuJuan]

Oh you poopster, I was going to suggest torrents!

[TakeWarning]

The AM! DVD is pretty fun to watch.

[good rats]

Neither of them have any Against Me! and don't allow Fat bands. Even though AM! isn't with Fat anymore, they still dont have any.

I forgot that. ****ing Fat sueing file sharers.

http://thepiratebay.org/details.php?id=3257231 they have it. Its 4 GBs though. And no seeders. No results on torrentspy, mininova or ISOHunt

Dammit. Umm, oh well.

I'll borrow it off my mate and rip it onto my computer.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

ALL'S QUITE EXCEPT FOR THIS SONG SO MAYBE WHILE I'M NOT TOGEHTER I CAN FEEL LIKE IM NOT ALONE!!!!

One of their best songs, definetley on that album anyway.

[good rats]

Yea, it's one of my favourites off SFAFC.

I don't know which versions of it I prefer more. The SFAFC one or the ones off the Stolen Demo.

I like the SFAFC one because of the nice lead guitar parts.

But I also like the Stolen Demo one because it's simple.

Eh, it doesn't even matter.


By the way, doesn't anyone know the chords to Untitled 2? I'm too musically retarded to work it out myself.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Yeah, same.

The screaming one off the demo's is better than the other one.

[good rats]

Yea, defiantly.

I can't believe they didn't put Exhaustion or Ed Is Sexy on SFAFC. They're probably my favourite songs off the Demo.

[Anarcho Poser]

By the way, doesn't anyone know the chords to Untitled 2? I'm too musically retarded to work it out myself.
No, but I want to learn guitar just to play that song. Actually, if someone can come up with the chords, I'll learn it on banjo.

[Fisticuff111]

My favorite version of 'Joy' will always be the one 'Live in Austrailia' version that Tom played on a radio station. It was the first time I'd heard it and is my favorite version.

[thepo]

By the way, doesn't anyone know the chords to Untitled 2? I'm too musically retarded to work it out myself.

In barre chords:

E C#min B A a couple of times

"You know we never needed highschool"

No problem, I know most of their songs, so if you want the chords to anything else, I can probably give it to you.

[good rats]

No problem, I know most of their songs, so if you want the chords to anything else, I can probably give it to you.
Yea, I know the chords to most of there songs, just not that one. ahah.

Oh! Do you know how to play All Or Nothing? I've found a couple of tabs but it doesn't seem right, and the fingerings are way hard.

[theliberties]

where can i find the tom gable live at C.O.R.E songs? can someone send them to me?

Bleh, I don't know that one. I don't know most of their earlier stuff. If I ever figure it out, I'll put it up here.

[theliberties]

can anyone send it to me plz!??!?! tom gable live at core

[good rats]

I'll YSI it soon.

[theliberties]

I'll YSI it soon.


whats ysi..?

[Flagjacket]

:lol:

[good rats]

It should be alright to post this right? If not I'll take it down.

It's against MX's rules.

-Brain Toad

[Henrik]

What did you post? The concert?

And ysi is short for www.yousendit.com

[POINTLESS5448]

i just downloaded the acoustic ep because i saw it up top and its great. the last song i think its untitled is so good. im getting another one of their albums now too i forget what its called. it was before rar.

[AIRIC]

Crime?

[POINTLESS5448]

no. its vivada vis it just finished.

[Anarcho Poser]

That was a good while before RAR.

[good rats]

Either way it still kicks ***.

[Anarcho Poser]

It's just such poor quality, and the vocals are so scratchy. I want Tom to re-record it all, with his more mature voice and stuff. It would be so amazing.

[AIRIC]

Yeah. I don't ever listen to it because it's such a bad recording.

[SantaDuJuan]

It's just such poor quality, and the vocals are so scratchy. I want Tom to re-record it all, with his more mature voice and stuff. It would be so amazing.
But they don't have teh same drummer to my knowledge.

[Brain Toad]

Stop talking about them, they are sellouts.

[good rats]

I've got a cleaner version of Vivida Vis...

It's listenable. It's good.

[AIRIC]

Their drummer doesn't really matter.

Yeah I have the cleaner version too. I've gotta listen to that sometime.

[good rats]

All or Nothing from the Self Titled is still one of my favourite songs.

[Anarcho Poser]

All or Nothing from the Self Titled is still one of my favourite songs.
Yeah, I like that song a lot too.

[Henrik]

I haven't heard anything pre-crime... Are those releases only available by downloading them?

[good rats]

Pretty much.

I'm sure you could find them on ebay though/

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I've heard the song Vivada Vis or something, but ti sounds terrible.

[good rats]

I've heard the song Vivada Vis or something, but ti sounds terrible.
There isn't a song called Vivada Vis is there? I thought it was just an album/EP, whatever name.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Hmm i dunno.

Oh i know.

It was "tearing down the walls" actualy.

[Fisticuff111]

Vivida Vis is a full length they put out on 12" vinyl for friends. It's actually not that bad of a recording at all, the bass is kind of hard to hear, but other than that it's fine. I think most people are mistaking it for the S/T 12" EP. 'This is Control' and '**** Stroll' are two of AM!'s best songs ever, and are both on Vivida Vis.

[Anarcho Poser]

I like This is Control alot.

[sink sink]

I haven't seen this floating around Soulseek or anything, but it's a live set from 2002 with their old bassist. Worth it to see Disco Before The Breakdown live.

I seriously thought it was guitar and drums.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Oh man i've heard Sh'it Stroll from the DVD and it's amazing.

[TakeWarning]

I think **** Stroll is a little over-rated.

[AIRIC]

I think their earlier stuff is overrated.

[Flagjacket]

It is.

[AIRIC]

Untitled 2 > **** Stroll

[Anarcho Poser]

Untitled 2 > ~87% of Against Me!'s material.

[AIRIC]

I would agree with that.

[good rats]

Untitled 2 is one of my favourite songs. I wish there were more versions of it out there.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I think untitled 2 is over-rated.

it's not that great.

[good rats]

Eh. His vocals are so good in it though. So..meaningful and powerful.

[Henrik]

In which versions is it available?

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I have it when he's live at the C.O.R.E

I want the Unsubstantiated Rumors Elctric version.

UR is easily one of my favourite songs.

ATEC is my favourite album ever now.

[Henrik]

Buy the 7' with that and the acoustic version of you look like I need a drink on it.
It costs very little at noidearecords.com

[good rats]

It's pretty good. Cool cover as well.

[Anarcho Poser]

The electric version of Unsubstantiated Rumors is way better than the accoustic, and I like the electric You Look Like I Need a Drink more too.

[D & V]

I think that everything against me! has ever released is over rated.

[Fisticuff111]

I think that everything against me! has ever released is over rated.

Then why are you even in this thread? :confused:

[Henrik]

I think that everything against me! has ever released is over rated.
As do I think of the band D&V.

[Bad Blood]

I have it when he's live at the C.O.R.E

I want the Unsubstantiated Rumors Elctric version.

UR is easily one of my favourite songs.

ATEC is my favourite album ever now.

You need to send me some stuff.

[AIRIC]

Well **** man that opinion isn't to rare :p

can you send me live at c.o.r.e?

if anyoen can send it to me tell me!! and ill give my aim or email address

[Deconstruction]

I am about to get the acoustic ep on vinyl...I am very happy. I was just introduced to this band a couple of days ago when I bought the Crime ep and I love them. What album should i buy/dl?

[Anarcho Poser]

I am about to get the acoustic ep on vinyl...I am very happy. I was just introduced to this band a couple of days ago when I bought the Crime ep and I love them. What album should i buy/dl?
Reinventing Axl Rose. And hell, As The Eternal Cowboy while you're at it.

[AIRIC]

Did any of you guys see the update on their site about a live record? August 22nd. I'm pretty pumped for this, hopefully they have a good set.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Yeah, i noticed it too.

I think it'll be really good, hopefuly they'll throw in some oldies.

[good rats]

Yea I knew about the live recording a while ago. I can't wait

[Angry Balled Fists!]

It won't beat the live dvd though, seeing them live is so much better than hearing them live i bet.

[Henrik]

I hope they'll play Ya'll don't wanna step to dis.. I've never heard it live and it's my favourite song from Crime.

@Deconstruction: If you want to hear something that reminds the most about Crime then get Reinventing Axl Rose. If you wanna hear a more clean Punkrock sound, then go for As the eternal cowboy. Both are awesome.

[lynch_me]

Did any of you guys see the update on their site about a live record? August 22nd. I'm pretty pumped for this, hopefully they have a good set.
:rolleyes:

[good rats]

I doubt Ya'll Don't wanna step to dis would be on the live album...but it would be so good if it was.

I got the Disco Before the Breakdown on record the other day. I've had it on my computer for ages, but now I actually own a copy.

[Henrik]

Yeah they probably won't be playing stuff from before RAR, and if they do it will be Impact of What We Worked For.

[Iron Bug]

They played **** Stroll Impact and Disco Before The Breakdown when I saw them (seperate occations mind you). I know Disco is after RAR, but I know that they rarely play it.

[AIRIC]

What We Worked For is one of my new favorite songs. That song is amazing.

[Liebensaft]

That's always been my favorite AM! song.

[nitzguy]

the lyrics are what does it for me in that song

[Henrik]

Yep the lyrics are good, but Tom doesn't show his awesome vocals in the that song.

[Fisticuff111]

'Y'all Don't Wanna...' is my 2nd favorite AM! song, but I'm pretty sure they haven't played it live since it was just Tom/Kevin.

[SantaDuJuan]

What We Worked For is one of my new favorite songs. That song is amazing.
Only because of the tamberine.
My fav too.

TWINS!

[Deconstruction]

I hope they'll play Ya'll don't wanna step to dis.. I've never heard it live and it's my favourite song from Crime.

@Deconstruction: If you want to hear something that reminds the most about Crime then get Reinventing Axl Rose. If you wanna hear a more clean Punkrock sound, then go for As the eternal cowboy. Both are awesome.
I have the acoustic ep...which has 7 songs off of Reinventing Axl i think...But I will probably get As the eternal Cowboy.

[Theramed]

i have a similarish question. to ^^^^

Someone showed me some new against me a while ago and i didnt really get into it, but i gave them another try and downloaded the acoustic ep thing which blew me away, could someone tell me what other releases they have that are similar to the acoustic ep? thanks. sorry if its a newbish question but at least in here you guys would know what your talking about.

[Liebensaft]

Try downloading the "Crime..." EP. It's not acoustic, but it's great.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I love the beggining of the Stolen Demo version of Holy ****, "Oh Good God" it says on my version.

IT ISN'T ANY DIFFERENT IT'S THE SAME OLD **** IT GOES!

[Brain Toad]

Holy **** was the best song on SFAFC

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Hmm, i prefer Joy and maybe a few others, How Low is probably my favourite.
Holy S'hit is definetley one of the best though.

Unsubstantiated Rumous Acoustic is so much better then the electric version.

[good rats]

Yea I agree. The electric version IS good though, it just doesn't have the same feel.

I love the Live at WKDU version of Unsubstantiated Rumours..

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Hmm i don't have that.
The electric version is growing on me a it, but it sounds so different.
Like when it changes in the orginial when it goes "and if, if roofs turn to sky, held by the gravity of nothing, An ironic and literal making of a bed"

the chords change and it sounds like the bridge, but in the electric version, the chords basically sound like it sounds the same.

Against Me! - Live In London. It has a sampler of Pints of Guinness, plus the album art looks amazing.

I wish they did it at the show i went to, it's gonna be from the Mean Fiddler show. Joe might have went there, i can't remember.

[good rats]

Im so excited about this Live Album!

The sampler sounds really good.

Yeah, I did.

[Deconstruction]

I just got The Acoustic e.p, and The Disco Before the Breakdown(red vinyl).

[Liebensaft]

I was supposed to be at that show.

[coheneran]

I am sitting here, listening to RAR, with the lyrics in front of me, screaming along. It's FUN!

"Lives and cultures matter more than capitalist interest.
It's the FBI; it's the CIA; it's the ATM, the IMF, NBC, CBS. **** you"

[good rats]

I just got The Acoustic e.p, and The Panic Before the Disco(red vinyl).
Do you mean the Disco Before the Breakdown?

[Iron Bug]

Man, if he did that is funny.

[Deconstruction]

Do you mean the Disco Before the Breakdown?
Haha, yes. I didnt realize i said that. Whoops..

[lynch_me]

I can't believe people are actually excited for a live album.

[me likes punk]

I can't believe people are actually excited for a live album.


I was thinking the same thing.

I suggest you guys buy We're Never Going Home. It's like a live CD only with video as well, and it's probably only $10 more dollars.

[viva la revolucion]

the sound quality on the live album is much better than on the dvd.

[Henrik]

How would you know?

[sketchyjoe]

I can't believe people are actually excited for a live album.I was there and I'm not that excited.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Yeah, i dunno i'm not excited as i'd have heard all the songs (i think).

[viva la revolucion]

How would you know?

http://www.fatwreck.com/ifloyd/

[Henrik]

Will that song be on the live cd?

[me likes punk]

the sound quality on the live album is much better than on the dvd.


I don't think sound quality is much reason to buy a live CD over a live DVD

IMO

[sketchyjoe]

Who's talking about buying?

[me likes punk]

Who's talking about buying?



oooh Good point

[sketchyjoe]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v901rdD4XH8&search=against%20me

That's a video from that show. The guy crowdsurfing at about 0:28 is me.

[Fisticuff111]

I'll be buying it on CD and vinyl.

I have the DVD, I have a bunch of live Against Me! bootlegs on my computer, and I'm still ****ing excited about the new live album. I get excited anytime Against Me! puts out material, new or not. It should be ****ing great, like everything else they do.

[AIRIC]

I finally appreciate Crime. Amazing EP.

[sketchyjoe]

All great musicianns have a muse, and I think we just found Tom's.

[Liebensaft]

[rawdog]

Tom is so weird looking now. Hes soo skinny, he almost looks sick.

[me likes punk]

I think he's pretty cute.

[AIRIC]

He probably has an eating disorder. He is cute though, always has been.

[AIRIC]

He's always been pretty skinny though. Remember the picture of him with the acoustic guitar that looks too big and he's wearing his wedding ring?

[good rats]

He was pretty chubby at one point...

In this Walking is Still Honest clip I've got he's pretty fat.

[me likes punk]

He had a little flab in We're Never Going Home

[good rats]

I still think Warren and Andrew are the sexiest.

[AIRIC]

You guys ****ing study this don't you.

[me likes punk]

You guys ****ing study this don't you.


I choose to make no statement.

[AIRIC]

i plead the fif' bioth.

[sketchyjoe]

Is he still on Coke?

[AIRIC]

Gabel?

[Joeeddstealschickens]

nah he went clean after either Axl Rose or Cowboy, the whole band toned it down a bit cos they wanted to take the band as a serious career. Hate to name drop but when i saw them in London a couple of months back (the one thats being released as a live abum in August) i met Warren in some random bar round the corner from the venue, and asked him about it, he was saying that they wnted to take the band seriously and theyd been back from Australia for about a day. Even better i met Tom Gabel up at the venue bar before the show, didnt ask him about the coke though hahaha thought itd be rude. Theyre both such genuinely nice blokes though, really cool guys, and meeting them makes me love the band even more than i already do just because theyre nice people and not rock-star wankers. Plus they were great live. No Walking is Still Honest though. Ah well.

[AIRIC]

I never knew that any of them had a coke problem. Kind of disapointing..

[Fisticuff111]

I never knew that any of them had a coke problem. Kind of disapointing..

It's all speculation... And is that Tom Gabel/Martha Stwerart pic real?

[thepo]

It's all speculation... And is that Tom Gabel/Martha Stwerart pic real?

I'm pretty sure it's a cardboard cut-out.

And How Low is about his coke problem, duhhh. And Beginning In An Ending, "Cooooocaine and soda!" Also they mention doing a bunch of drugs on the DVD.

I just got Axl Rose on Pink Vinyl!

[good rats]

AM! or just Tom Live on WKDU is really bloody good.

[Mike Rakhabit]

I just got As the Eternal Cowboy and it's awesome, I used to think they were okay but I think they are awesome.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

It's my favourite album ever i think. It's so short though.

[TakeWarning]

ATEC isn't that short, when you compare it to some other albums.

'tis brilliant though.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I know, i listen to lots of other short albums, but i listen to it and it's over so quick, about 25 mins i think.

[Anarcho Poser]

I'm pretty sure it's a cardboard cut-out.

Nah, they wouldn't have a cardboard cutout of her dressed like that. Plus it looks like it has dimensions.

[Brain Toad]

I actually listened to Against Me! last night :eek:

I listened to Crime and the Acoustic EP. Both are still enjoyable EPs.

[Flagjacket]

I'm pretty sure it's a cardboard cut-out.


Why would martha Stewart have a cut out of Tom Gabel?

[Deconstruction]

I actually listened to Against Me! last night :eek:

I listened to Crime and the Acoustic EP. Both are still enjoyable EPs.
Both are awesome Eps!

[Left Shoe]

ive only got Reinventing Axl Rose and im in love, what other albums should i check out?

[Iron Bug]

Disco Before The Breakdown, Crime EP, and ...As The Eternal Cowboy.

[AIRIC]

Crime and As The Eternal Cowboy

[TakeWarning]

As The Eternal Cowboy.

[good rats]

-cough-

[Joeeddstealschickens]

Does anyone reckon they should release an odds and ends collection? Like, the 2 tracks of the searching... demo, Tom live on wkdu, the stuff off the cavalier eternal & sink florida sink singles, wagon wheel etc?

Also, why has no one recommended Seafching For A Former Clarity? Is everyone of the school though that its a 'sell out' album? Personally i think its awesome, better than As The Eternal Cowboy and Crime anyway.

[TakeWarning]

Takewarning, you should probably take that link down. No filesharing allowed.

I didn't post a link, did you post a link?

Because I certainly didn't.

Does anyone reckon they should release an odds and ends collection? Like, the 2 tracks of the searching... demo, Tom live on wkdu, the stuff off the cavalier eternal & sink florida sink singles, wagon wheel etc?

Also, why has no one recommended Seafching For A Former Clarity? Is everyone of the school though that its a 'sell out' album? Personally i think its awesome, better than As The Eternal Cowboy and Crime anyway.
SFAFC isn't bad, it's good. but not as good as ATEC or Crime.

[johngirl]

Stuff like this just makes me love Against Me! What a cool thing for a band to take a stand for! :)

Bump.

Lots and lots of live stuff. Tom on his own and full band.

[Liebensaft]

Wow, thanks.

I liked SFAFC better than ATEC.

But your opinion does not count as you're a mod.

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

I bought the Crime EP today, and it's ok.. you guys hype them a lot, and especially this release, so I decided to get it. It's ok, nothing really special or anything. It's good for a listen every once and a while..

Are you serious? I thought Crime is by far the best thing Against Me! ever recorded. Granted at first I was a RNR fanboy, but overall. I'd rather own Crime then Reinventing.

I mean, Burn or Impact is just WOW.

[Brain Toad]

But your opinion does not count as you're a mod.

And yours doesn't count because you're British.

[sketchyjoe]

Touché. Or as we say in Britain, yer' avin' a larf yer stupid cunt.

[Joeeddstealschickens]

All the songs on Crime are great songs, but the band sound isnt as full as their full albums (for obvious reasons). ATEC is a really great albm, but Searching is a much more developed sounding abum.

I love that fact, how many drum/guitar folk punk bands are there?
How many Indie rock bands are trying to get to the top of iTunes?

See what I mean?

[TakeWarning]

NP: Turn Those Clapping Hands Into Angry Balled Fists

This is such a great song, it's been a while since I listened to ATEC.

[ThisUserIsAPipebomb]

I think Crime is the best music AM! ever wrote, even if it isn't delivered as high quality as it could be.

Searching, still sucks.

[POINTLESS5448]

ive been listening to the acoustic ep every day on the way to school for the past month. first of all its ****in amazing, and second of all it takes the same time to finish as it takes me to get to school so its usually over or ending as im pulling into my parking space.

[Liebensaft]

Convenient timing.

I can usually listen to Group Sex in the time it takes me to get to school, even though it's not AM!.

Nah i agree that its quite unique sounding, with a jangly clean electric and a drumkit, and i think crime is good. I personally think searching just sounds fuller and more diverse. Just personal prefernce man.

[POINTLESS5448]

My cell is a pos....AND it doesnt have any AM! especially That ep which is one of my favorite chill albums....
So i think my favorite song on Clarity is Miami!

[POINTLESS5448]

i love all songs about miyayo.

[obese_breasts]

I got to interview Warren and Andrew yesterday at the Warped Tour, it was pretty cool. They played two new songs aswell, they sounded pretty good in my opinion.

Awesome! I wish I was there.

[TakeWarning]

I think it's good how they're constantly doing new songs.

Any idea what they were called?

[Twin Human Highway Flares]

Okay, quick request. I need Vivida Vis! This must have been asked thousands of times in this thread, but I can't find anything other than SoulSeek stuff, but as that doesn't work on a Mac, I need to find it elsewhere. It has to be up for download somewhere.

http://chris.schleifer.net/ssX/. There is Soulseek for Mac.

[Twin Human Highway Flares]

Yeah, that doesn't work on Jaguar.

"Please note that ssX works on Mac OSX 10.3 (Panther) and above only."

I also found something called Nicotine which is supposed to be a Mac version of Soulseek, but also 10.3+.

Go there, register and you can download it.

[POINTLESS5448]

am! needs too make a full length acoustic album. this ep **** isnt cutting it anymore.

[Twin Human Highway Flares]

I found it on AlbumBase, but the actual file at MegaUpload.com was missing. Ehh. I did also find something called "discography" though, so I'm hoping...

[Flagjacket]

Against Me! rules overral. SFAFC rules too.

I stand by Tom Gabel until I meet him onstage at Warped Tour.

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

I just got We're Never Going Home and it's pretty good. Some good live stuff, and it is pretty entertaining. It was funny when Tom locked Taking Back Sunday in their dressing room..

[Neoteric]

Against Me! are awesome.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I just got We're Never Going Home and it's pretty good. Some good live stuff, and it is pretty entertaining. It was funny when Tom locked Taking Back Sunday in their dressing room..

haha yea.

i love that dvd apart from all the sell out **** they were always on about.

[TakeWarning]

Yeah, that thing where Taking back Sunday get locked in their room still makes me crack up.

[Flagjacket]

Guys when I get to go onstage and Warped Tour what should I say to Tom?

[obese_breasts]

how'd you manage to get to go onstage?

[Flagjacket]

The girl who I'm going with, her dad wrote the emergency plans for the Detroit Warped Tour date, so he gets free tickets and passes and such, as many as he wants, and his daughter is taking me and my firend Stu to Warped Tour. The night before we're staying at her sister's place in Detroit. Oooooooooh!

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Tell him to not make the new album ****ty.

[TakeWarning]

Tell him Captain Jack Sparrow sent you to settle his debt.

And tell him to write more songs with the word "punx" in the title. Those Anarcho Punx Are Mysterious is great, I forgot how much I loved it.

[SantaDuJuan]

Tell him to do a Chumbawamba and give all their money to an Anarchist group so they can get back all their old fans but still make bad music.

Kevin: Yo Emily, can my dirty street punx friend oi oi oi oi come along with us and stay the night at your sister's?
Emily: No.

they're better than you.

i got Tom's plectrum :D

[Twin Human Highway Flares]

I lent my cousin all of my AM! cd's (Crime, Acoustic, Disco..., ATEC, and some songs I downloaded) and the song he ended up liking was Don't Lose Touch. I was highly disappointed.

[Chilly-Bean-Bop]

I've recently been enjoying As the Eternal Cowboy.

And I enjoy it lots.

[kno_kontrol]

Searching for a Former Clarity is their best work. Its the London Calling of modern day punk.

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

hmmmm..

[AIRIC]

I thought against me were metal :confused:

EDIT: Actually, if you were reffering to how overrated both albums are, you'd be correct.

Clash blows Against Me! out of the park.


Even bands that made fun of Clash praised them.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

As the Eternal Comboy is their best album.

[Flagjacket]

ABF is right.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Whey.

RAR always used to be, but i've found it to get a little tiring while as ATEC never gets old. Every song is amazing.

[Anarcho Poser]

Both albums have their strong and weak songs. I think ATEC is more uniformly good, but RAR has four or five of their best songs.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

That's pretty much it.

[ibanezman575]

well ATEC is certainly my favorite
and Searching For a Former Clarity is boring imo

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I still love it.

RAR has 7 or so amazing songs but there are a few average ones too; like scream it until your coughing up blood and the politics of starving.

[TakeWarning]

Right on the money. Also, RAR had several shittier versions of some songs in my opinion, like I Still Love You Julie and Walking Is Still Honest. I thought the Crime versions of those songs were better.

[sketchyjoe]

The best songs on RAR are easily better than the best songs on ATEC.

[TakeWarning]

ATEC:
TSR
Cliche Guevara
Sink Florida Sink
Turn Those Clapping Hands...

RAR:
Pints Of Guiness Make You Strong
I Still Love You Julie
Scream It Until You're Coughing Up Blood
Those Anarcho Punx Are Mysterious
Reinventing Axl Rose
Walking Is Still Honest

The ones are RAR are essentially my top 6.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

ATEC:
T.S.R
Sink Florida Sink
Unsubstantiated Rumours
Angry Balled Fists (:cool:)
Then, Slurring the Rhythms, Rice and Bread and You Look Like I Need A Drink are all on par with me.

RAR:
Pints of Guinness...
Reinventing Axl Rose
I Still love You Julie
Jordans First Choice
Those Anarcho Punx...
Walking Is Still honest

Overall, i prefer listening to ATEC because of the quality, it's faster and sharper etc.

But RAR has the big guns like the underlined songs.

[Clashed]

I saw them play at Warped...
I was dissapointed...

[ThisUserIsAPipebomb]

RAR is way better than ATEC.

ATEC is the first Against Me! I heard and it's an amazing album. It will always hold a dear place in my heart. RAR changed my entire outlook on punk and the state of things. RAR influences my musical career more than any other album out there. It's straight up one of the best things ever written by anyone on the planet.

ATEC is an amazing album, but RAR is still better.

[POINTLESS5448]

i was and i wasnt. i wasnt because they played a good show but i was becasue they only played one song from rar.

[ThisUserIsAPipebomb]

:( Sorry Jack but I can't exactly be like

Kev, I don't have to stay at anyones sisters. Just meet me before, and we'll hang, and I'll get in for free with your secret passes.

they're better than you.

i got Tom's plectrum :D

Plectrum.


You music dork.
