I was being sarcastic... but I probably wasn't very good at masking it there. I rip on people for their music taste all the time--it all evens itself out. No hard feelings!!

GUNS UP! = THE S.HIT. I'm loving this EP right now.

I've only seen videos of them, but they were rad.

Guns Up! was a rad show.

Scott, goto Coachella.

That stupid alt rock festival?

Yeah, I'm so down to see NIN for 50 bucks in Indio.

I'd do it. Coachella looked awesome last year.

I believe Thrice is playing that festival. That would make it ALL worth it.

I wouldn't see Thrice play in my backyard for 50 bucks.

Hahaha.

If I remember correctly, you used to like Thrice. Seriously, I agree with you on a lot of points, but no one has a valid reason to hate Thrice.

1) They suck.
2) They spawned a whole s'hitty scene in my town that called itself hardcore but was really just s'hitXcore and effectivly muscled out all the other good forms of music by buying out the only venue every Saturday and Friday night.
3) They suck.

Those are three pretty valid points, I think.

"They suck"

Wow, my respect for you just skyrocketted. They are definately horrible musicians.

I'm sure they also single-handedly spawned every wannabe hardcore band in your scene, because I [I]always[/I] hear people call Thrice hardcore.

Now get out.

nonono, honestly, they really did spawn every horrible hardcore band in my entire town.

I hate when bands go into towns and found shi[i][b][/i][/b]tty bands and then scamper off mischievously into the night. And then they have the gall to deny ever having done such things. The audacity.

Thrice is the most talented band in this whole "scene" right now. I don't care what the f.uck they spawned, because they didn't even get as popular as they were supposed to with The Artist in the Ambulance. They have the best lyrics around--hands down. In my opinion, Thrice is today's Refused. I cannot wait for the new album, and if you think "Stare at The Sun" (which, to say the least, has amazing lyrics and bass lines) is an example of Thrice's best, you are surely wrong. Go buy The Illusion of Safety (their other albums are still mindblowing) and listen to every song while reading the lyric book. Then, you can shut the f.uck up.

I've never gotten why people go off about how good a bands lyrics are. Good lyrics are nice, but in the end doesn't it really come down to how good the song sounds?

*exception of Crass of course*

CRASS? I'm really at the point where I laugh at almost all "punk" bands. The genre is truly dead. I can't help smirking every time I see a gutter punk walking around. Also, I hate my username, so don't use it against me.

Thrice's music is much better than most of what's out today. Teppei is an amazing guitarist... you cannot deny that.

*points at usern...nevermind*. I didn't say they were bad musicians, I just hate their music.

Let's all take a second to turn our music down, go to this site and hit "Cancel" when the window pops up:

Maybe some day punks and hardcore kids can learn to get along through the mighty powers of Coca-Cola




Anyways, to make this post somewhat relevant and get back on topic. I bought my first Give Up The Ghost album today (We're Down...) . So, I really like it and I'm new to all this hardcore stuff, so please tell me what else I would like. Please?

I love Thrice. I think you misinterpreted my post. My beef is with the 50 bucks.

[QUOTE=40 oz 2 freedom][I]Background Music[/I] by American Nightmare.[/QUOTE]
Thanks much.
Although I don't know how soon I will be getting another CD. I really gotta save up for an amp. I went on my last CD buying spaz today. :(

At least their bassist has the most talent out of the whole band.
