Good job on having an ignorant elitist username.

pwn ++

Not to mention those bands won't get you a lot of respect here...

I'd just like to say in no way shape or form is Franz Ferdinand bringing back classic rock.

Nor is Jet's "riff thefts" really bringing it back...but give a n00b a break...

Lets talk about Bob Marley. He's never talked about, and he was an amazing songwriter.

I'm surprised no one has done any reviews of his albums.

Heh..Is it Jet, or is it the Guess Who?
I think more bands should have a keyboardist...like a Hammond Organ..those kicked ***...

And I sort of like Bob Marley..not my favourite..

I really like Classic Rock too, I haven't listened to any new stuff for about 2 weeks now! And like the past 5 Cd's I've bought have been classic stuff like Van Halen, The Doors, and The Rolling Stones.

I like it how you can listen to The Doors and Van Halen at the same time. Most idiots I know only like one specific style of music.

I refuse to accept those bands as a comeback of classic rock.

Which sond did Jet supposedly steal that riff from? I'd like to hear it.

Cold Hard Bitch by them sounds like Bitch by the Rolling Stones

It doesn't matter which song. Their whole album is a total rip on various classic rock bands. It's so generic and crappy. maybe i'd like it if they had some decent guitar solos.

There is this kid who rides on the same bus as me, and he listens to Jet's CD everyday at full volume.

*torture* :upset:

They stole it from "lust for Life" by Iggy Pop

Who likes my new avatar?

Mullet? NO.

Get out of here n00b!

[QUOTE=rock not roll]Who likes my new avatar?

You can see the mullet much better in the old one.

That's because there is no mullet in my new one. It's just long-ish everywhere. Hense, no mullet.

Although, Hell To Pay>See The Light. I may switch back, i'm still deciding.

[QUOTE=Medopalis]The Darkness are far better than Jet though. They're not exactly original, but they're music is more fun to listen to, and, as a band, they're definitely more talented.[/QUOTE]
I actually like The Darkness, but they're have no where near the amount of talent of any classic rock band.

at my school they made our theme for the year "rockin' with pride," so at assemblies and stuff they play rock instead of rap now. it kicks ***.

as for classic rock, i have to say that the doors are probably on top of my list.

i think jets music is just good for a fun time...no real musical credibility or songwriting skills are shown, but at least they are trying to do something.

If you heard their new single they take a line from a Beatle's song word for word. And its not a cover

Jet's "Rollover DJ" is very similar to the Guess Who's "Takin' Care of Business"...and also the name is 'similar' to Mr. Berry's song..

Speaking of school anthems, our team name is the St. Mary's Thunder. So guess which song we get to listen to?..at every sporting event..and every assembly...on every announcements...over, and over, and over again...

[QUOTE=Medopalis]I don't even think it's catchy though, as I'd be prepared to listen to it otherwise...seriously, stuff like The Darkness, out of newer bands, and Queen, out of older ones, fill that role so much better that I don't see any need for Jet. And they are just so shamelessly unoriginal that I'd rather listen to the song they ripped off.[/QUOTE]

ya thats true. the darkness arent exactly original, they havent done anything new in their music...but at least they have talent and arent afraid of showing it, unlike most bands around now who even if they have talent, they dont really show it.

anyone here read poetry just because you know it inspired a musician you like?

i have read a lot of Arthur Rimbauds poems because Jim Morrison was a big fan of his. and today i went and got out a collection of Dylan Thomas poems because thats where bob dylan took his last name from.
any other poets/artists you guys know who have inspired someone you like?

edit- may sound lame, but if it worked for them, it might work for me.
