Definitely, the thing the fucks me off most about these type of bands is the lack of dynamic variation in their actual music.

YES YES YES YES YES +1 MIL

without dynamic variation, you're a straight line. and nobody likes a straight line.

i have never gotten into attack attack. heard a few songs and wanted to make a legit decision on whether or not they deserve any second thoughts. so i checked em out at warped tour last summer. my decision was made quickly... :ill: HOWEVER, after reading joey's previous attack attack discussion, i will be giving their new stuff a try. Don't have high expectations though.
 
I am for doing music because of the pure love and connection that I feel with it, however, if someone told me that I could play music, have the time of my life touring the nation, walk away with stories to tell my (future) kids, and get paid a little, then sign me up.
:)

personally, i would play ANY style of music if given an exciting opportunity. i love music. i hate anyone that's narrow-minded when it comes to music. there are talented musicians and bands in any and every genre. just as well, some, unfortunately, are god-awful. personal musical judgments based on talent, production, arrangements, etc...will never be black and white.

ps the marky mark comment made my night
 
Attack Attack!'s music doesn't move anywhere though. It just sits there like a vegetable.

Yeah, a vegetable that's gone through a digestion system.

That finnish band is clearly a joke, but I didn't laugh. No one else should either. These kind of bands should just vanish, no trace, no memory.
 
By the way, there´s a finnish "skater rock" band called The Odorants that I really like and it´s impossible to get their album. Is there any kind of major digital music shop in Finland where I may find it?

They released two albums (Beat The Odorants, SonyBMG, 2003 & Counting Wolves, 2007, Moby Disc) Eventho the band has quit, how about asking buying it from them directly? There is a contact page on their official site at http://www.theodorants.org
 
Headbanging keyboardists = the funniest thing ever. They all look the same, "the same" being ridiculous.
 
This music doesn't nothing more than proves how dumbed down our society is. It is even more sad that all the record companies push this shit, if they spent that much time pushing bands that actually have talented musicians, they would still sell as much records if not more. This argument will never win about talent/selling out etc. Its just sad that we today are taking whatever music relations as nothing more than money and not for the passion.

Agreed. Besides, why are Attack Attack drastically changing their direction now, after releasing one album that braindead people actually considered good music? Sounds to me like the first album was just a conscious joke or a way to make some moolah to start the life in music business nicely.

I guess it's like the idea of writing Nickleback-esque songs purely to try and make money. Most musicians could probably do it, but how many could STAND it? Writing joke songs is only funny for so long...

Could be, but terrible transitions, use of autotune on a person who actually cannot sing and techno parts from out of the blue speak for a joke band to me. I guess it could have never been a joke, them being so popular now and all. :notworthy
