Hungry Bald Fists 07-24-2006 04:43 AM

Yall dont wanna step to dis is definetely one of my faves.

Fisticuff111 07-24-2006 02:10 PM

My favorite Against Me! songs are 'Walking is Still Honest' and 'Y'all Don't Wanna Step to Dis'. In fact they are my teo favorite songs ever, by anybody. The new song off of the live album is pretty damn good. Catchy as hell, but not in a 'Don't Lose Touch' way. Anybody like it? I'm really excited about the 2007 Sire debut now :)

obese_breasts 07-26-2006 02:36 PM

I'm just listening to the live album now and the new song is pretty good.

POINTLESS5448 07-26-2006 03:27 PM

its out already? i thought it came out in like september/

Deconstruction 07-26-2006 05:07 PM

I thought it was sept also?

Brain Toad 07-26-2006 05:13 PM

It probably leaked.

Fisticuff111 07-26-2006 07:55 PM

It leaked on slsk. The official release date is August 22nd I believe.

POINTLESS5448 07-26-2006 10:32 PM

sweet i need to hit that up. how do albums get leaked anyway?

ps: i just made a pretty sweet mix of the best against me songs. theres like 25 of them or something on the cd.

Brain Toad 07-27-2006 12:58 AM

Someone working with the record company steals the tape and puts it on the internet
The band puts it on the internet
It gets lost, some random person finds it and put its on the internet.

I think most times it's actually the second reason these days.

SantaDuJuan 07-27-2006 01:13 AM

Is the album worth downloading if you don't go crazy about AM?

obese_breasts 07-27-2006 01:20 AM

it's a good live recording, I think it does a pretty good job of capturing their live show, especially for Turn Those Hands Into Angry Balled Fists

TakeWarning 07-27-2006 04:45 AM

Hmm I looked on Soulseek but didn't find it, which isn't surprising since my Soulseek sucks, so I guess i'll just have to wait until it comes out. :(

good rats 07-27-2006 05:08 AM

Try searching for Americans Abroad. I couldn't find it when I just searched "Against Me"

Hungry Bald Fists 07-27-2006 05:24 AM

Ysi Please

TakeWarning 07-27-2006 08:56 AM

Yeah YSI sounds good.

obese_breasts 07-27-2006 04:29 PM

they were awesome when I saw them too.

you were there?

thepo 07-27-2006 11:42 PM

So Against Me! are gonna be on a Replacements tribute album.

[url]http://www.wellinherittheearth.com/[/url] has all the info about it, and if you go to tracklisting you get a small preview of the tracks. The Against Me! cover sounds like its gonna be really awesome, and there's also plenty of other great bands that are participating: The Ergs, Hi-Ho Six Shooter, The Queers, and This Is My Fist to name a few.

sketchyjoe 07-28-2006 02:43 AM

That sounds awesome. The Replacements kick arse.

Flagjacket 07-28-2006 08:19 AM

The Lemonheads > The Replacements.

I was, front row, getting showered in Tom's sweat. It was a great night all round lol

sketchyjoe 07-28-2006 03:59 PM

[QUOTE=POINTLESS5448]you were there?[/QUOTE]
Yes.

My main criticism of the live album is that it sounds too much like a studio album. Not enough crowd noise, banter or deviations in the songs.

POINTLESS5448 07-28-2006 10:32 PM

**** that its awesome. good *** set list too. so much better than the one they did at warped.

TakeWarning 07-29-2006 03:21 AM

One of the main things I like about live albums is that they figure out new variations of the song like a guitar solo or extended intro, but from what I've heard about American's Abroad it doesn't have anything like that.

Flagjacket 07-29-2006 08:21 AM

I'm seeing them today!

Warped Tour!

I think it's their best song, just too bad they never play it live.

Also: Walking is still honest on RAR > Walking is still honest on crime.

[SIZE="7"]NO, NO, NO[/SIZE]

Seriously, the Crime version is so much better.

Angry Balled Fists! 07-30-2006 07:14 AM

Kieran is right.

All of the best Reinventing Axl Rose songs sound better when either palyed live or on other versions, seriously. The song RAR is about a million time better live as are all the other ones.

Flagjacket 07-30-2006 08:41 AM

Alright so I saw AM! yesterday.

What a godamned disappointment. They played Problems, God's Ears, Two New Songs, Sink Florida Sink, and Cliche Guevara.

However, I did talk to Warren at the merch booth and made him look stupid. I was wearing my LAtterman shirt and he said trying to sound really cool, "Nice shirt. I know those guys." "Yeah, me too." "Oh uh.... small world." and then walked to the other end.

ibanezman575 07-30-2006 08:49 AM

wow you sure owned him

If that's all they played it has been a pretty shi'tty setlist. What was the new songs like?

The Crime version of Walking is still honest has none of the energy which the RAR version has.

obese_breasts 07-30-2006 06:45 PM

Pretty much any Against Me song is better live than on record.

sketchyjoe 07-30-2006 07:05 PM

Pretty much any song by a half-decent band is better live than on record.
