Fucked Up is on a continuing path to shock, destroy, and simply put their audiences in awe. Name the last hardcore band to put out a first full-length topping out at over 72 minutes. It's probably not an easy memory to recall.

Agreed. It took me awhile to get into it, but now I just can't stop. It's so fucking amazing. I can't wait until the "best of 2007" lists come out and this will be on everyone's "albums that were amazing last year that I didn't fully appreciate until this year" lists. God dammit. Three stars? how come nobody mentioned 'invisible leader'? thats my favorite song on the record. score is for the record. For those who are worried about the length of this: so was I at first. But I read a review about this using the word 'spazz-core' and it really does apply. Fuck you if you still don't love this album. 2nd best of the year, under crime in stereo. are you fucking kidding?not real hardcore. this site is hilarious clearly one of the greatest releases this year. such a fresh and unique sound. who cares if its not "real" hardcore. the point is its good music. period. and since when do albums need to be short? or song lengths? because thats not hardcore? theres this song that comes to mind...the saddest day...from some cd petitioning the empty sky by some band called converge. I don't dig this band at all. one of the top 10 records of the year and the person bellow me....is bellow me. who cares how long a record is.... intense stuff. those who don't get it probably have dicks in their ears. when was the last time such simple guitars destroyed so many continents? eh? BOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGGGGGG yeah, 72 minutes is a little long. i agree with scruffy though. i usually like albums to be short, but there are some bands (like isis) that i can listen to songs that are well over 5 minutes. on a side note, ken have you heard the new chronic seizure 7"? its awesome. the songs drag on. i mean its good music the song are good they just don't need to be 6 - 7 minutes long Who cares if it's 72 minutes? If it's good, it's good. Billy Talent's singer is a rockstar jerk (nothing to do with the line, its about the way he treats people). Their first record was mildly entertaining pop rock that nickleback fans get in a tizzy about and their second one was some pretty boring shit. What do they have to do with Fucked Up's full length? short, fast, and loud all the time gets boring REALLY quick dear fucked up, 72 minute 2xLP vs. 6 or 7 2-3 song 7"s I got some of this band's earlier stuff and despite liking it, there will be zero chance of me picking up this record. Why? 72 fucking minutes, thats why. If your record lasts longer than a beer or your live set lasts longer than a pitcher, then I'm likely not very interested. Short, Fast and Loud, baby. Speaking of which....new issue is out.... Yeah...the mp3 sounds like PiB to me...I'll have to pass. I wouldn't really lump them in with PIB, and I would imagine even members of PIB wouldn't make that comparison...This is the first release they've had somewhere other than Deranged (or Slasher, even smaller)... Actually BizzleBrizzle, maybe you should quit "punk" because you don't even listen to any punk, you listen to shit. At least Feeding5000 has some decent taste in music. I'd really like to hear this, my expectations have gone from about a 5 to the current estimate above. "review is too conservative. One of the best records this year, just that a lot of kids simply won't get it or dont have the attention span. welcome to a world in which music comes out in record form, not just as a single downloaded song." Feeding5000 should quit punk Feeding, put down the Crass and start to read more into hardcore. PiB is a really wrong, split second comparison. Yeah...the mp3 sounds like PiB to me...I'll have to pass. I hate to destroy all my "punk cred", but I never really liked this band. Now that they're on Jade Tree, home of overrated "hardcore", I probably never will. Everyone will agree that this is amazing, like they did with "Paradise", and I'll be outside going, "Uhhhh".. review is too conservative. One of the best records this year, just that a lot of kids simply won't get it or dont have the attention span. welcome to a world in which music comes out in record form, not just as a single downloaded song. Brilliant. Rating this a 6 is a crime. "this band should learn to play their instruments." "Dude, try listening to the fucking song, and then get back to me. I wouldn't be comparing a hardcore band to an Irish punk band if there wasn't a genuine similarity in the delivery of the chorus." I liked this band better when it was called "The Dwarves". "This review is retarded. I love the length of all these songs, if they were any shorter they'd suck. This record is perfect, and is at the one of the best punk albums to ever have been released. People who think otherwise are retarded, and probably suck at listening to music." this band should learn to play their instruments. there's a difference between pissing people off and simply making ass music "This review is retarded. I love the length of all these songs, if they were any shorter they'd suck. This record is perfect, and is at the one of the best punk albums to ever have been released. People who think otherwise are retarded, and probably suck at listening to music. Yo, for real, you gave the new Blood Brothers a better score than this? This review is retarded. I love the length of all these songs, if they were any shorter they'd suck. This record is perfect, and is at the one of the best punk albums to ever have been released. People who think otherwise are retarded, and probably suck at listening to music. One of the best bands going right now. Fuck a 3 star... I think you meant Jonestown Massacre, the historical attrocity not the band. What imbecile wrote this review? "It featured a clip of the Brian Jonestown Massacre?" I think you meant Jonestown Massacre, the historical attrocity not the band. What imbecile wrote this review? Ooh, tasty. oh and score is for this record this is a really difficult album, listen to it in chunks. It is some original interesting stuff they've got going on but all the while still hardcore punk. I still think a 6 is a conservative score but the review itself is pretty good either way. not that great at all best record to come out of the hardcore scene in a LOOOOOOOONG time Whoosh good review, this album is fucking awesome My bad, last week was the 7-inch. I still want to be review editor. 2 of the same reviews as last week? Can I please become review editor? There has to be plenty of other reviews waiting to be posted. "somehow resembling the Dropkick Murphys" so is there gonna be a fucked up review every week? |
