Published on January 20th 2004
For those of you anxiously awaiting anything new from the Weezer camp, The Special Goodness should satiate you for a good while. Weezer drummer Pat Wilson dons a six-string and moves in front of the mic for a surprisingly smooth transition to frontman. The drum throne has been filled by Atom Willard, formerly of Rocket From The Crypt and now of The Offspring. On the bass? No clue. But that's part of what makes The Special Goodness so special, I suppose. People who liked this also liked:           Please login or register to post comments.

I'm gonna continue to listen to Mo City Soundtrack. you should ask some bands out there, they will tell you what the difference is, between epitaph an majors! ..very subjective shit... u tell.... hmm... how can someone say something against Epitaph?, they did so much for independent music quite a few years ago, and now put out boring crap and are basically a major label. Brett is a great guy at financial matters anyway... to fu hmm... how can someone say something against Epitaph, they did so much for independent music! Brett is a great guy anyway... so fu Jump the shark? haha, thats a good one! im gonna remember that! You saw that on E! didn't you?. jump the shark: Epitaph has jumped the shark... Incredibly bad. it's funny because most of you prolly have never heard the album, but you judge it anyway you people are the same ones that hated the mars volta cd arn't you. you bastards maybe you should put down your dk and rancid records and check out what else is under the sun. i'm a big fan of this type of music, but for some reason this album only did it for me a little bit. the songs aren't really that great, and i do agree that if this wasn't weezer's drummer, no one would give two flying shits about this record. and really, they shouldn't to begin with. This is horrible, it does not suprise me though that scott continues his likings of shite bands-oldpunker- www.geocities.com/blacktiebombers epitaph has some cool bands this is shit though sorry, this is the score i meant wow, this is crap. it's impressive how bad this is, infact. it sounds like throw away foo fighters songs, but probably worse. Actually, Epitaph probably isn't. The tend to drop anything that doesn't make 'em filthy rich(er) on it's ass, despite quality. i'll take a shot in the dark and say thier bassist is this jeb lewis character. I thought Epitaph was no longer distributing Fat Possum? Save your money and go buy the new Shins CD! Special Goodness are a bit wack... Epitaph gives support to Fat Possum Records in Oxford, Mississippi. Home of, RL Burnside, Bob Log III, Hasil Adkins, The Neckbones, The Black Keys, and literally shitloads of other AWSOME Blues/roots, and blues/roots-inspired music. At this point, one of the very few good thigs Epitaph does. kinda reminds me of broadways broken van to the person below...who're these blues bands epitaph supports or whatever? "Is that cover supposed to be a take on Down By Law's All Scratched Up? It looks similar." scott, you've liked some pretty shitty albums lately... Hmm, lets break the name down: "Wednesday, January 14, 2004 go buy the Lost Patrol lp. it rules. Is that cover supposed to be a take on Down By Law's All Scratched Up? It looks similar. this score is for epitaph. do they put out some crap? yes. i dunno, i was listening to this yesterday and i couldnt get into it... maybe ill try it again. the score is for the label. fuck epitaph. |
