That would be so punX.

The new live album is kicking my a[COLOR="black"]s[/COLOR]s so hard. It's so good that it makes me like [I]Searching For A Former Clarity[/I] a little bit, because I understand how the songs fit in with the bands' music as a whole.

I know they're total hypocrites, but it's hard to stay mad at such a groovy bunch.

What if at this MTV thing they announce how much they hate MTV and everything corporate and say that SFAFC was a big elaborate joke they were playing and go back to the basement.

then my life would be complete. ive always though about that and if a band would ever do it. i would.

That would really be the most awesome thing a band that I liked had ever done.
Then they should rush on stage and start playing Ya'll don't wanna step to dis and Pints of Guinness make you strong.

Haha that would be so sweet. Did this MTV thing happen yet?

I don't know actually. I don't have that channel.

Someday, when we're in old-folks homes, we'll tell the young kids working there about how there used to be this glorious punk band that everyone loved, and how they erred in their ways and made totally lame and mediocre music.

And the young kids there will be wondering why we're talking about that lame old farts music still.

I would have sooo many orgasms if they did that on the MTV thing.

Haha, I'm soo going to do that :P

I've been listening to a lot Against Me! as of late, i'm just in love with them after seeing them over the summer. I know they sold out, but i think there's no band that has the same passion as them. But anyway, i was thinking, a lot of the sets they've played lately have had the same dull setlist (Don't Lose Touch, Problems etc.) Does anyone else think they need to start spicing them up a bit more, you know, wheel out the big guns.

Anyone agree?

Of course they do. However, I doubt they will.

Do They Owe Us A Living?

They should play that more

what is this mtv thing you kids were talking about?

i really dont get the selling out thing. it is kinda beyond me how this forums seems to go into these fads and when one bnd goes out of the same routine they get looked down upon. like i mean a small chnge isnt all that bad. besides Bad Religion went on to a major label for a while just to reach more people with there music.

And Bad Religion got a lot worse too IMO.

New Against Me! sucks. And looking at their old ideals makes them kind of hypocritical now.

New Against Me! doesn't suck, it just isn't as good as their old stuff. I think Even Out Our Worst We're Still Better Than Most is the best track off ...Clarity.

Okay I will agree with you there...
New Against Me! doesn't suck (I fear that the upcomming album will) but in comparison with the older stuff, it is terrible.
The ironic title "Even at our worst we're still better than most" kind of explains it all.

hey they still put on a hell of a show. though they are right that Aganst Me!s setlist has gotten pretty crappy but bad religion had an awesome one.

I disagree. Last time i saw them, their setlist was terrible, and their show was miserable.

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, though, and say it's probably because it was one of the last dates on the warped tour and they were probably wiped by then.

Would be so kind as to put their live album on yousendit, so something like that.

Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't even bother downloading it, it's really not worth listening to.

If we're talking about [i]Americans Abroad[/i]...yeah, big let-down.

What is it that makes it so bad (I haven't listened to it)? The set list looks pretty good.

Compared to bootlegs from '03 or so it's horrible.

there just isnt that energy in it like i've come to expect from Against Me!. ive seen them live before and it was amazing, so much energy and intimate and stuff, but none of that is captured on the cd. the songs sound slow, too cleaned up, not like the old raw Against Me!

Also, except for one new song, we've heard all the songs alot of times before.

and that new song sucked too

[QUOTE=babaca;13520106]and that new song sucked too[/QUOTE]

I quite liked it.



I dont know why you guys are all sitting here complaining, they could have made something infinately worse, just because it isnt up to par with everyone of their other albums doesnt mean it sucks.

Just cause it could've been worse doesn't mean it's not still bad. The new songs they played at Warped Tour were all really bad.

It's boring as hell, and there's no banter. I need [i]banter[/i], goddammit.

Give me banter or give me a NOFX album!

Yeah there should've been more humourous banter.

I really dont like the newer Against Me! Its honestly nothing to do with which record label they are on... I just generally cant get into their newer sound.

I personally feel on Clarity that his voice sounded pretty dumb (And I used to think he had a great voice) Its just too much of a big rock album, and im not really into that. I fear the new album is going to be even more like that.. which is a bummer really.

What I cant understand is this. They sort of pioneered this whole Folk/Punk sound, which was great. They were considered a fresh innovative band, and then they decided to go a totally different direction (Which is fine) However it wasnt like they pushed the boat out further, they kind of went backwards. The music they make now isnt new or exciting.. Its pretty generic. If I was them I would have either carried on with what I was previously doing or done something else new.. but then again im not them... so...

Yeah that makes sense. But that's why their new music is such a big dissapointment. Becasue it's so god damn generic.

Against Me! made a video and put it on myspace. It's kind of a joke video that in a not funny way explains why they changed label..

actually it isn't really saying anything... :(
