I like their older singles a lot, I should get some of those albums.

Not too fond of their modern work.

I was just thinking about this band a few minutes

I came to the conclusion that they have likeable singles and are casually unique.

I really hate RHCP. Their old stuff was terribly produced and weak. Their new stuff is radio friendly tripe.

radio friendly music is brilliant

One Hot Minute is one of my favourite albums.

Aaron is really good at disliking well-respected bands. You're the only person i've ever known with the balls to dislike The Smiths. Other than me.

You went a bit too far with Weezer, but it's all good.

I've never really seen what makes The Smiths so great. They have a couple of alright songs but on the whole they're pretty meh.

I don't like The Smiths because they write in the same dynamic for all their songs and think that whining is a valid vocal technique. Musically they're alright, but vocally they're kinda irritating and grating.

Weezer just write average music that I think people have misinterpreted as subtle brilliance, but to me it's just oversimplified pop that fails to hit its mark. They're a band I understand people liking.

lol, do you honestly think that weezer is average or typical in any way?

i've honestly never heard a band that sounds anything less like every other band. thats just my opinion tho

I mean average in a 3/5 way; They're not groundbreaking but they're not bad either. Elvis Costello's earlier stuff was pretty similar, and I think is a huge influence on Cuemo.

you keep saying weird things. weezer broke into more unexplored territory than almost any other band i can think of.

[i]whatever happened to humanity?[/i]

I like a bunch of RHCP songs but they don't have an album that I can listen to all the way through without skipping the filler songs.

Otherside is like one of the best songs ever

tbh its hard to hate the singles off californication or BSSM

everything else is really bland

Parallel Universe is the shiznit!

Californication reminds me of being 15 and learning how to play bass.

goodtimes.

Californication reminds me of finding the CD in my closet and rocking out to it on the way to school pretty often this past semester.

can we all agree that under the bridge is a cool song

[QUOTE=Jaundice;17556715]can we all agree that under the bridge is a cool song[/QUOTE]

Sure!

I usually stop listening to BSSM after [i]I Could Have Lied[/i] comes on

heeyyooo, listen what i saayyyooo.

what a great song.

I'd give examples of bands but I usually don't listen to music and then think "hey this is safe"

so i cant think of anything off the top of my head

Californication and By The Way are great pop albums. Some turds may say that is an oxymoron, but those people have no soul.

Yeah you care way too much what people think if you say great pop is an oxymoron

I never really got into Blood Sugar Sex Magik. I prefer Californication

A lot of the songs on [i]Californication[/i] were some of the best they've done, I just found the production difficult to listen to long before I realised exactly why it never sounded that great to me.

I've been cranking [i]Blood Sugar Sex Magik[/i] and [i]What Hits!?[/i] a lot lately

Californication has bad filler tracks, but such good gems.

By The Way is my favorite album of theres. IDK I've given up on greatest hits collections.

I've never been familiar with any of their earlier albums so it's good to listen to for the moment.

I should probably get [i]The Uplift Mofo Party Plan[/i] or [i]Mothers Milk[/i] or something

Oh word. Ah, the advantages of having heaps of older siblings.

[i]Fight Like A Brave[/i] is always stuck in my head

that's because you never had to fight against braves

you don't understand the savagery

I think the song is about booking into rehab clinics or something

I know, I'm just bored, idk.

I used to listen to Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic all the time when I was a kid. My dad loved that album, sooo many amazing songs

i'm enjoying the first album quite a lot at the moment
