Reviewing anything that Buddyhead releases is inherently dangerous. The website people love to hate talks so much shit on other bands that one must think that if they believe enough in a band to actually shell out the money to release a record of theirs, the band has to be all sorts of good. It's a lot of pressure on a group, but Your Enemies Friends shrugs off the Buddyhead stigma and delivers an incredibly solid debut LP. Please login or register to post comments.

I still think this album is boring and the songs mesh too much into each other. Actually, to the fucker who said this is gramatically incorrect, it is "your enemies' friends" they just leave off the apostrophe. but it is correct i definitely enjoy this.and it's even better live. The vocals, jeebus, they're so fucking crap, ruins the rest of the CD, which is actually pretty decent. "Please make me feel like I'm aliiiiiiiive", or whatever he says, jesus, could it BE more stereotypical emo-nonsense? I can't believe Buddyhead cared to release this. i'm not done listening yet, but so far, this record is pretty tits... i think this record is great. i agree that some of the songs get a little grating or something at times, but overall i think it's a great next step. the vocals for the most part are excellent and i keep finding new things to like about it everytime i listen. Live they were ok. Good musically, but the keyboardist was just about a mannequin as far as I could tell, and the singer was trying WAY too hard. the album cover is cool, i don't know what you guys are talking about. still a solid debut. the first half is attacking and the second more spatial. good times, great oldies. that person is right... this bands name doesn't make grammatical sense....t-shirt recall! boring album cover "Their name isn't even grammatically correct. I'll take my time to listen when they take the time to learn the laws of the language." "15 hipsters who are from Idaho but live in Hollywood are stoked." I liked them despite my hardest efforts not to. I like this song as well. Actually, you don't have to double space after sentances. The only reason that this was practiced was for typewriters, every letter took up the same amount of space. With fonts like this, single space is actually the correct way. Looks like you lose. And you're telling who to learn how to type? Great live band. "You didn't put bother to double space between your sentences, so I'll take my time to tell you to shut the fuck up and to learn the "laws of language" Wow... double spaces? Didn't know we were going seventh grade on it there, teach. You didn't put bother to double space between your sentences, so I'll take my time to tell you to shut the fuck up and to learn the "laws of language" Their name isn't even grammatically correct. I'll take my time to listen when they take the time to learn the laws of the language. i liked them live and i like this mp3--SORT OF like an actually good version of Celebrity,...SORT OF this band is great live, energetic, and they know how to have a good time !! I like this one quite a bit... it does bear a striking resemblance to the confluence of events that might occur if the Icarus Line and Pretty Girls Make Graves were to merge in some scientifically fascinating but wholly organic way. i don't really like this band that much, and when i saw them live with the locust and dillinger they kinda sucked, i like pretty girls make graves though Last comment was funny haha. But this bad is good, I can't deny that shit! 15 hipsters who are from Idaho but live in Hollywood are stoked. best album of the year so far. Maybe we should download it, if only to avoid having to look at that awful cover art. Back Of A Taxi is an awesome song. I can't wait to pick this up. i feel it only necessary to download this album instead of paying buddyhead for it This band is really awesome live. I just picked up this album and I can't stop listening to it. Buddyhead, who knew?! |
