New CDs are tough. Maybe you bought it for that one song that kicks your ass every time you hear it on the radio, maybe you borrowed it off a friend and have never heard it before, or maybe it’s the newest release by one of your favourite bands and you’re itching to get your hands on it.

if the music is good then what else is there that really matters? seems like you are more into the image than into the music. I saw them when they opened up for Crossfade and well...it didn't go too well. They got majorly booed and had things thrown at em. I admit, I booed too, but probably not for the same reason as everyone else. Honestly, they don't have much stage presence. Their music isn't too shabby, in fact I kinda liked it, but they definitely need to work on their presence on stage. So...sorry for booing, but now you have some constructive criticism to diminish that. Damn, they need an email so I can tell em personally. Oh well. yeah and im willing to bet your GF isnt NEARLY as hot as his anywho whoever said the lead singer was hitting on his girlfriend is full of shit. he has a girlfriend himself and he is a tall guy who could probably take anyone out. stop trying to sound cool! The lead fucker was fucking hitting on my girlfriend! I hope he rots in hell, he told her she was fucking hott. I alomost beat his ass. No Address kicks major ass! Oh, and all the guys are nice, and Ben is not a prick. All the fans are friends because the guys get to know their fans. Thats how down to earth those guys are, they appreciate what they've got. all the people trying to say that this CD sux is full of crap- i have seen them live,a nd talked to all of them- not a one is a prick, they are all very down to earth- and work hard to create good music- just b.c its not your genre doesnt mean youmust trash it, and just b.c you need to feel better about yourself doesnt give you the right to trash anyone- Not only is Ben a talented writer/singer he was an amazing teacher. The band is awesome, their cd is AWESOME and they are all very nice to the fans. Give the cd a chance before you decide you don't like it...the lyrics are extremely interesting and relate to everyone in some way. Whoever said this band sucks and that Ben is a prick has clearly never listened to the band or met any members. people on this site need to get a life! Phil isn't the lead singer, Ben Lauren is Couldn't agree with you more, Jesse. If they would just play that soldier-anthem single on those tornado-siren size speakers over all of Iraq, Pakistand, Afghanistan, and Syria, all of the "insurgents" would surely surrender just to stop the aural pain. And Three Doors Down might possibly be the worst band I've ever had to listen to in my life. Yes, because I so often wish to buy an album after hearing a hit single on the radio all the time. Do us all a favor and head on over to AbsolutePunk. "Actually, I think the more painful the process of "getting" a CD or a band, the better the result is, not the opposite. I CD's like The Animal Collective's "Sung Tongs" and Radiohead's "Kid A" when they came out, but as time progressed I eventually came to fall in love with these albums. The easier an album is, the more disposable it is, if I can find it instantly enjoyable, it's just good sounding pop. But when I really have to try to get into it, that's when I feel more rewarded. This band sucks ass and the singer is a total prick. Whoever wrote this is obviously friends with them.

Three Doors Down and Jet? So baaaaad, I'd rather Kelly Clarkson. Are you being serious? Most of the albums that they review are put out by labels such as Rough Trade, Sire, and Sanctuary; essentially, the sub-labels of majors. I'll hijack a short school bus the day I see Pitchfork review something put out by, say, Asian Man or Thick or No Idea. Real indies. "So it's not punk, related to punk, DIY, or connected to the underground in any way? Don't we have pitchfork for these reviews?" I heard one song off of it and thought it was good. I might pick this up. "Three Doors Down, Treble Charger, and maybe just a soupcon of scrunge rockers like Jet immediately come to mind. That being said, they add their own particular brand of blusey sexiness to everything they touch." a "soupcon" is a fancy-dancy* word for "little bit", most often used by snotty cooks**. Couple of things: Yes, but I'm much taller now. Try 6'4". This is Erin Jackson: http://goaztecs.collegesports.com/sports/w-baskbl/mtt/jackson_eri n00.html you dirty terrorist. And one more thing, Three Doors Down are not a good band. That cover reminds me of the 70s. |
