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

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.

Flagjacket 10-28-2006 04:59 PM

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.

AndreTheHyena 10-28-2006 05:10 PM

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

Flagjacket 10-28-2006 05:20 PM

Give me banter or give me a NOFX album!

TakeWarning 10-29-2006 02:19 AM

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...

AIRIC 10-29-2006 10:27 AM

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

Henrik 11-01-2006 09:23 AM

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... :(

Yeah.. when I starting watching it (and I heard the question) I thought.. oh good lets see what they themselves have to say about this. I have heard the responces of about a million different fans, but never the actual band.

Then they just played some dumb (Pretty unfunny) video.

Kind of a cop out.

Henrik 11-01-2006 02:33 PM

Yeah it would be interesting to see them answer honestly. I think a lot of fans would like that.

Flagjacket 11-01-2006 03:46 PM

I guess no one caught the Wayne's World joke?

AIRIC 11-01-2006 04:01 PM

I think the video was pretty funny. I think that even though they've sold out in terms of music, they're the same exact people, if that makes any sense. They [I]are[/I] just playing by the rules.

That was never really my **** with them though, my **** is that they write horrible music now.

Flagjacket 11-01-2006 05:27 PM

When ym band sign to a major label I am going to use my fortune to do the most extravagant things ever. Our stage show is going to full on have dacners, pyrotechnics, and a flying part.

viva la revolucion 11-01-2006 05:31 PM

It's ironic that they don't give a **** about their fans anymore. It really makes me respect them. Oh wait...

Flagjacket 11-01-2006 05:31 PM

I swear to God why hasn't ANYONE caught the Wayne's World joke?

AIRIC 11-01-2006 07:43 PM

Yes Kevin and like 3 people all ready commented them on it and we don't GIVE A ****.

Flagjacket 11-01-2006 07:56 PM

I mean the people here who are acting like Against Me! made up a totally stupid video on their own.

AIRIC 11-01-2006 08:29 PM

It wasn't stupid though it was classy.

Henrik 11-02-2006 01:26 PM

What's the joke?
I haven't seen Wayne's World.

Flagjacket 11-02-2006 03:24 PM

The entire video is a verbatim replica of a scene in Wayne's World, even down to the camera angles.

asdf 11-02-2006 08:15 PM

I thought it was quite funny. Makes me want to see the wayne's world thing you're talking about.

Twin Human Highway Flares 11-02-2006 09:52 PM

Who's the bald guy in the video? And where's James?

Angry Balled Fists! 11-05-2006 07:07 AM

I Lost The Confidence To Write A Song So I Found 3 Simple Chords And I Held Them Together With My Weak Voice On An Out Of Tune Guitar My Father Gave To Me

Jessizzle 11-05-2006 09:15 AM

Hey look at me, im posting in a AM! thread.

Values Here 11-05-2006 09:17 AM

You look like I need a drink.

Flagjacket 11-05-2006 12:00 PM

It was a birthday gift

Of a mexican Telecaster

Angry Balled Fists! 11-05-2006 01:37 PM

i was never really into that song like most others tbh.

Johnny Quest. 11-05-2006 02:27 PM

Still a great line though.

'No i'm not ready to die just yeeeee-EEEEE-eeeeeee-tttt.'

That's one of my favourite AM! lyrics, and the way it's sang makes it sound so triumphant.
