yeah

[Jetpack]

word. i didn't want to post my piece in two different places and get yelled at by the songwriting gods(mods).... im still new and i dont want to be toe steppin around here.

[Disco Donkey]

Toe steppin' is for ballerinas.

Anywho, has anyone heard of the band Anberlin? I've just gotten into them recently and am wondering if I should pick up their new album or not. Any thoughts?

[DFelon204409]

Myeh Anberlin are whatever sauce.

[Disco Donkey]

So would you suggest shelling out $12 for it?

Another one I've been wondering about is this guy named Aaron Sprinkle. I went to purevolume and heard the song "Really Something," which is the only one he has posted. Anyone else have any info on him?

[DFelon204409]

I don't recommend giving Anberlin any money.

[Disco Donkey]

Alright, maybe I'll just download it off the internet instead. I usually try to stay away from doing that unless I think the band might suck.

[I Love Fat women]

So, when's this thread closing?

[Disco Donkey]

Probably sometime around Sunday.

[Bigbadbob]

" I got the hots for the sluts in the well thumbed pages of a magazine".

Wish I could write like Pete

[pixiesfanyo]

Probably sometime around Sunday.

Monday you mean.

[Disco Donkey]

Whatever.

[Jetpack]

word so come monday we just post them in order of our choices?

not including us right?

[Disco Donkey]

A separate voting thread will be made where you rank each song and then preferably give a small critique along with it. And no, you don't include yourself.

[ATC]

We're doing a cover of The Cranberries' Zombie for our demo for CBC and by gum, it kicks all ***. I'm so happy. And so forth.

[TojesDolan]

Monday you mean.
What?

Wdenesday you say?

Cut me some slack, I have no internet (at home) at the moment. : |

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

Better modern day melodic hardcore/screamo - esque (**** genres) redone cover

White Wedding - Billy Idol

or

Radar Love - Golden Earring

[ATC]

Melodic hardcore sucks,imo. As does hardcore.

[Littlejohn]

Melodic hardcore sucks,imo. As does hardcore.

Oh wow you're right. Your opinion just completely changed what music he likes. :thumb:

[ATC]

Oh wow you're right. Your opinion just completely changed what music he likes. :thumb:

I wasn't even trying to change his opinion. I only said that because I presume he was referring to my claim that my cover is better than an original and I think that turning things into melo-hardcore often reduces their original beauty.

Your opinion just ceased to matter since you take things out of context. :thumb:

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

maybe we could all calm down and stop the attacks. All i was saying is that i am currently doing vocals for a melodic hardcore/metalcore blah blah blah band, and we are deciding what to do a rendition of, not attempting to do better than the original, but to compliment it by putting our own spin on it. I was just wonder which one you think would cross over better to the genre.

[Littlejohn]

Well, I'm a bit on edge today. Scene kids have gotten under my skin as of recently.

Scene Kid - "What type of music are you guys doing for Battle of the Bands?"

Me - "I'm not very good at classifying genres..."

SK - "So does it sound like Comeback Kid or Norma Jean?"

Me - "...neither?"

SK - "OH, well you guys must blow."

[ITRIEDVOODOOONCE]

Agreed, but then again its not a crime to like the music, im not scene, but i like anything that doesnt sound generic.

[ATC]

Apologies for earlier, LittleJohn.
Voodoo,I'm not familiar with either song but good luck with those. I'd go with Radar Love because that sounds like it has crossover potential and sounds very un-metalcore-ish which probably means it'll be a more interesting cover. idk.

I played in a couple hardcore bands for a few months because I liked the energy but the music never did do it for me and I couldn't help the guys with the songwriting cos of it.

[Jetpack]

atc... you've never heard white wedding by billy idol???


Anyways in my opinion, the radar love song would be better, only because i think its such a kick *** song and a wicked bass line. but the idol song would def be sweet to redo

[deathscreamingsheep]

White Wedding was redone very badly by the Murderdolls I believe.

Anyway, as White Wedding suits the harsh vocals of hardcore/metalcore/whatever a bit more I say go with the other one.

[RunAmokRampant]

I don't mind either. Should listen to some Mindsnare or Terror. Good ol' fashioned hardcore at its best before it became popular. They're still going strong too IMO

[pixiesfanyo]

How about you listen to Jerome's Dream and get your skull ****ing crushed.

[ATC]

I'll check out those bands listed.
Though to be fair, I'm not sure I have the energy to listen to enough to have my skull crushed. I find hardcore music makes for great live but not so great in-your-room sorta music. That's where all my prog/ambient/folk tastes kick in. Thanks for the recommendations, guys.

[Jetpack]

Nopes. All I know is Letting the cables sleep, which I like but I'm not too familiar with anything else.

I used to listen to Bush when i was a lot younger, had 16teen stone and the next one, forget what it was called lol i think i still have it...

on a side note, i have the best remix to letting the cables sleep ever, like a nice trance/techno version made for Cafe Del Mar, (a cafe in ibiza spain known for its great music and wicked DJ's)

if you want to check it out i could hook you up with it its really ****ing good in my opinion..



As far as the rest goes, METAL!!! In Flames and Trivium rock and im thinking im gonna see them next month!!!! YEAA!

That'll be awesome. I like Cafe Del Mar. Much appreciated.
Send it to anticarnation@gmail.com

I've diversified from metal over time. I don't listen to much of it anymore. I've gone the Kevin Moore way. Good luck with your concert. I've been offered tickets to that. Dunno if I'll go but yea. Concerts rock!

[Disco Donkey]

So, on a completely different note: my professor is retarded. He tried telling me that alternative music is the main reason for the propulsion of gay/bi-sexual acceptance in America. I hate him.


EDIT: Oh, and by the way, Bush rocked. F*ck all of you who say different.

Name some.

[RunAmokRampant]

Sikth, Ion Dissonance, Candiria, Dungeon, Five Star Prison Cell, Karnivool, Strapping Young Lad, Premonitions of War, Alarum, Lamb Of God.

Not all of them are traditional metal but who can tell these days?

LoG is heavily heavily heavily overrated.

Ion Dissonance is the only really good one I see there. And the fact that you mentioned Dungeon makes me laugh.

Aside from that, I did say "almost" after all.

[pixiesfanyo]

I'd have to second that. ^

Although Strapping Young Lad can be good like, once in a blue moon.

Uggghhh....metal. I'm sorry, but that genre just seems to completely suck as of recently. Some of the classic metal is still good (Judas Priest, Metallica, and the like) but anything past circa 1999 is pretty much crap. The only thing I admire about some of the more recent metal bands is the technical proficiency of some of their guitarists. I hate most of the vocalists though. Therefore, if I'm in the mood for some kickass guitar playing, I opt for Joe Satriani. No useless screaming/shrieking/gargling/whatever, just good guitar playing.

Screaming/Shrieking/Gargling is where it's at.

Stop being single minded.

[SubtleDagger]

Anyone who doesn't like screaming on principle is usually lame.

[conniption]

Anthrax is where it's at in metal.

[Tainted_Soul]

I don't dislike screaming, gargling, etc. but I've found very few bands that I thought made that work well...I guess I've always liked to hear a real voice. My favorite exception though, is definetely Haggard. If you've never heard of them, buy, download, sell your soul or do whatever you have to do to get awaking the centuries. Its way worth it. Otherwise, I gotta agree that since Metallica brand metal faded out, its tough to find good metal bands...

I despise Joe Satriani. And Yngwie Malmsteen and all those guitar 'virtuoso' players. Musical wankery in it's purest form IMO. It's all sterile to me.

Yeah, maybe. They're a little more post-metal.

Yay for stupid genres.

[I Love Fat women]

close the contest?

[Disco Donkey]

Screaming is only tolerable in small doses and if it's not done off-key, which a lot of new metal bands can't seem to grasp. Other genres that use screaming seem to be able to do it somewhat melodically. Thrice, anyone? Even other not-so-good bands like Silverstein manage to make it sound a notch just above complete a$s. Metal bands...eh, not so much.

[Jetpack]

Ok first of all i'll say that i somewhat agree with Yngwie, I think he's really talented but he's way too repetitive, and a lot of his stuff is the same type of music, scales and pentatonics, etc... he never varies it really... Joe satriani i disagree with you on that. I think he's amazingly talented, when I hear him play i really feel that he almost sings through his guitar, yeah, simple chord arrangements but its all about the feel.


Disco Donkey:

I agree with you that some bands just scream for the sake of screaming, I sometimes enjoy just a basic scream on some heavy songs. Thrice is great they are great at screaming and singing, but i think find sometimes It's too much and i'd rather just listen to a growl and some wicked guitar.

*Just bought in flames/trivium tix YEAH!*

[WhatILivefoR]

So, go check out Mercury Switch. They're metal/experimental/awesome and from my area. Pretty sweet. They're becoming more well known, but I don't know if I've ever seen their name on these forums before..

...if you're into breakdowns smashed with melodic guitar and singing.

[RunAmokRampant]

Yngwie is worse than joe I agree. All he tends to do is play scales fast.
Metal is doing ok atm like it always will, it's metalcore that's dying in the pits.

And sometimes screaming or "singing" off key can be used for an artisitic effect like Converge for example. But Converge are the only ones who do that well anyway as far as I can tell.

[SubtleDagger]

The Locust and Me And Him Call It Us do it all the time and it sounds great.

[Disco Donkey]

Screaming (or even singing) off-key can be used to add to the artistic impression of the song. However, too many bands--mostly metal bands--that I've heard lately don't do it for any sort of artistic reason, they just do it to sound fashionable and end up sounding ridiculous. Let's take Slipknot, my favorite "metal" punching bag: when they sing, they're decent; when they scream, they're obnoxious and lame.

[SubtleDagger]

Ah.

Well, yeah. It annoys me more when he raps though. Or just "talks menacingly".

[Jetpack]

oh yeah thats the reason i can't listen to them, i hate his stupid rambling ffs!!

[RunAmokRampant]

Meh. The only slipknot song I actually like is "Eyeless". Not a big fan at all. Too many gimmicks and the such

[Disco Donkey]

Yeah, those ridiculous masks that they all wear are probably to shield them from getting punched in the balls when they're walking down the street. If people don't know what they look like, then they won't know what testicles to stomp in.

I'm ashamed to be from the same state as them.

[TojesDolan]

The Locust and Me And Him Call It Us do it all the time and it sounds great.
I find The Locust to be too goddamn odd, to tell you the truth.

To much screaming and all that.

I don't mind it. For instance, I dislike listening to DEP because of the senseless screaming (at times), I can't stand it a lot, at least using earphones.

Other than that I'm pretty receptive of music. That can't even be put into that label, you know, it's not not accepting...

Wait. I'm confused now.

Bottomline, let's all hold hands and sing you know

[RunAmokRampant]

Hmmm DEP don't have senseless screaming if you mean screaming "**** you!" and other random insults like Slipknot and other bands similar.

[Jetpack]

ok so i judged the ****... when do i actually give it places? 1st 2nd 3rd etc... I guess i can do it right away if i want to right?

Dont agree with the post 1999 "metal sucks" thing. What about Tool? I know they´re from before, but they are still going strong. And how about Deftones? Kickass vocalist Chino Palmero, does some pretty good screaming.

Dont even want to discuss Slipknot, I don´t consider it music really...

U guys do know Tool right? :naughty:

1. The Pixies
2. The Mars Volta
3. King Crimson

5. The Dillinger Escape Plan

All five of those bands, has written countless albums of material that are better than anything Tool has ever done.

3. It's not "deep and emotional". To be honest, most music isn't.

[SubtleDagger]

Ha, the irony and hypocrisy of using personal attacks to accuse someone of being immature.

[Bigbadbob]

double HA, the absurdity and irrelavance of the price of tea in China.

[RunAmokRampant]

I like Tool. Maynard doesn't just sing about what Subtledagger said. Most of his stuff in APC is different and expressed on a more personal level. Take "The Noose", "3 Libras" and "Magdalena" for example.

[SubtleDagger]

"3 Libras" is typical angsty stuff. It sounds like it could be written by a teenager.

[RunAmokRampant]

What? I'd hardly call 3 libras an angst ridden song. Maybe you're thinking of Judith maybe?

[DFelon204409]

I wrote another angsty song too.

Hey, hey, hey. Are you insulting my Bush? How dare you! Actually, they were the only good band to come out of that whole post-grunge era thing. So, I somewhat agree with you. Therefore, you cannot smash my head in with a hammer. At least, not yet.

Everyone has angst. Maybe that's why it's been done so much. But do you have the talent to make us want to read it? The use of language is an art form you could spend a life time cultivating if you so choose. Build your voacab and use dictionary.com if you need. I solemnly (spelled correctly) swear it will help.

Technically, it ends tonight. Wait till the morning or tabulate?

Do I have to copy paste the lyrics for you?

They're really typically angsty. They read like high schooler material actually.

Meh I know the lyrics pretty well. I like Maynards lyrics for the most part even if you do think they're "high schooler material". I've heard worse from other bands I like.

[ATC]

Tabulate?

[sketchyjoe]

I think Subtle narrowly beat you into first.

[ATC]

Ah, its not a tie?

[sketchyjoe]

You:
One 4th
Three 3rds
Two 2nds
Three 1sts

Subtle:
One 4ths
Two 3rds
Two 2nds
Four 1sts


Unless I've miscounted.

[xKONRADx]

yep subtle won.

[SubtleDagger]

It was a dead tie until Fat Women voted.

Great job from ATC though, you did write a really good song.
