Chinese Democracy

[Joe]

Everybody from Krypton, which had a red sun, has superpowers on Earth under the yellow sun, hence Superman and Zod and the other dudes from Superman 2

Man I listened to a couple songs from this on youtube and my god it's atrocious

I'm not really a G&R fan. I like Sweet Child of Mine and Welcome to the Jungle. But, my god, Axl Rose is probably the worst singer ever.

 

[Joe]

Oh and while I'm slamming old bands I'd like to take the opportunity to say that Motley Crue look like a bunch of hookers.

 

[Joe]

And I don't know why anybody ever liked the Rolling Stones. Most overrated band in history? Yes! Maybe they'd be tolerable if they cut all their songlengths in half. Not every fucking song has to be 20 minutes long, guys.

 

[Joe]

And don't get me started on Aerosmith! I quote Steven Tyler: “Any band that can go from 'Don't Want to Miss A Thing' (Aerosmith's #1 smash hit) to the ass-kicking 'Sweet Emotion' to the cheekiness of 'Love in an Elevator,' to the classic ballad 'Dream On' shows why Activision chose us to headline this game based on the diversity of the Aerosmith catalog. Not only is songwriting a bitch, but then it goes and has puppies.”
What does that even mean? People like puppies. Or do the puppies represent when Aerosmith gave up and rewrote the same power ballad over and over and over and over and over and over again?

 

[Joe]

And is this seriously the best fucking album cover Weezer could come up with? Yes Weezer counts as an old band. That third guy with the cowboy hat and 'stache looks like he wants to cut and rape you.

What's up with the 5 posts in a row

 

[Joe]

What's up with your face, faggot

 

[Joe]

How'd you think my post count got so high?

 

[Tarvis]

maybe i delete all your posts

 

[Joe]

Maybe I bomb your house

Old Axl Rose was awesome. This new stuff is pretty bad, but back in his prime, he was one of the best singers/frontmen out there.

I have 34 Rolling Stones songs in my library, and only four of them are over five minutes long. There's no way they're one of the most overrated bands of all time. Seriously? They're probably one of the four most influential groups in the history of rock music (along with the Beatles, Zeppelin, and Sabbath).

Aerosmith sucks though. I'll agree with you on that.

 

[Joe]

I don't think I've ever heard a good Rolling Stones song.

And those guys should be in a fucking home. Have you seen Keith Richards in the last 2 decades? He's like some kind of infernal wrinkle-demon.

Oh and while I'm at it I can't stand the Beatles either. Yes I realize that they and the Stones were extremely influential and all that jazz. But I can't stand 'em! Zeppelin is still awesome, as is Sabbath, the other two not so much. To be fair the only Stones songs I've heard are what they played on classic rock radio back in FL, which I assume are some of their bigger hits. It might have been my imagination but god they all went on for so long.

 

[Bronson]

So they're old. Big fucking deal. They're still putting on a better show than 90% of the bands touring right now.

Satisfaction, Gimme Shelter, Jumpin Jack Flash, Street Fighting Man, Sympathy for the Devil, Wild Horses, Beast of Burden, Paint it Black. All awesome songs.

Also, this new album contains some nice work by buckethead.

 

[Tarvis]

I like ride the lightning!

 

[Joe]

Me too

 

[Bayli]

weezer's red album art is quite the creepy!

but, at least as a whole it's better than the 'make believe' album. ughhh.

 

[Patrick]

I bought Chinese Democracy (wups!)


Only liked the first song. It differed entirely from the rest of the album.
