What Are You Listening To?

[tottivillarossi]

Thats not to say I dont like other bands, but I'd buy any album of trance which for me is easily my favourite genre.






I always buy CDs. I much prefer the CD to having the torrented download.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

I dont care about what the CD cover has on the front though.

[Jimmy Jazz]

I dont care about what the CD cover has on the front though.
What about supporting the artist?

I can understand someone not buying all their music, as it would be very expensive, and, perhaps, the record companies deserve it after years of over-charging the public. However, I do think people should at least buy their favourite records. They owe it to the artist.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

I wish everyone was that charitable, I certainly arent, its not like they dont make enough anyway.

[Jimmy Jazz]

I wish everyone was that charitable, I certainly arent, its not like they dont make enough anyway.
Maybe bands the size of Radiohead and Coldplay wouldn't miss it, but for up and coming artists it genuinely makes a difference. That's not really the point anyway; the fact is they're potentially giving you years of entertainment.

[thersonli1keano]

I wish everyone was that charitable, I certainly arent, its not like they dont make enough anyway.
If you wish everyone was that charitable then why aren't you?

I thought you were the one that didn't believe in breaking the law and all that before, ranting about drinking and drugs or whatever because it was illegal? Why are you not against illegal downloading. It seems far more morally wrong to me than a bit of drug taking.

Not that I'm against illegal downloading, if a band produces a good enough record I'll buy it and so will most people.

Drinking?

Wait, comparing drugs to illegal downloading, thats laughable.

[tottivillarossi]

They are both illegal. Hardly as bad as rape or murder, are are small crimes that generally get over looked. Not all that laughable.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

Taking heroin or crack cocaine is a small crime?

I'd hardly call harmless downloading to something which can rule and eventually kill you a major difference actaully.

[terrier 4 life]

loads of random sht

eazy e, eminem, raconteurs, natty, crystal castles, pink floyd, weezer, buzzcocks, slipknot, atmosphere, get cape wear cape fly and bloc party, but only really silent alarm.

oh and colt 45 by afroman, always good for a laugh.

raaandom.

Class A drugs, duh.


Would you say that a 16 year old drinking beer is worse than illegal downloading?








On topic - Demi Lovato - On The Line. I hate the Jonas Brothers, and their voices in this song hold it back :(

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

Well I drink occasionally so obviously I dont find that a problem either, I find illegal downloading nor drinking lager a problem.

[thersonli1keano]

Drinking?

Wait, comparing drugs to illegal downloading, thats laughable.

I dunno, I have a vague recollection of you saying you didn't drink and didn't agree with it or something sort of recently, but i might be wrong.

Nah not laughable really, in general I see more wrong with stealing than taking drugs.

but this is not the views of codemasters, they do not condone drug abuse of any kind. :)

or stealing actually. both bad.

[tottivillarossi]

Doubt it was me, I drink and have done so no.

It really is laughable, youd rather have someone who stole I dont know a tenner than someone who takes heroin in your family?

[tottivillarossi]

I'd much rather have a thief in my family than a crack head. Chances are though, that the crack would still be a theif.

[evilhomer28]

tbf i do download, legal and illegal, but only if i can't find certain songs on itunes.

e.g.
Bernard Cribbins - Right Said Fred
Gary Jules - Mad World

couldn't find them on iTunes so i had to download them elsewhere

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

I'd much rather have a thief in my family than a crack head. Chances are though, that the crack would still be a theif.


Thats your choice, I also thought that Iain thinks its 'more' morally wrong for someone to download music than to take drugs.

[Winning Days]

£10 worth of marijuana OR a £10 CD illegally downloaded?

There's no major difference...

[thersonli1keano]

Doubt it was me, I drink and have done so no.

It really is laughable, youd rather have someone who stole I dont know a tenner than someone who takes heroin in your family?
Dunno it wasn't that long ago I remember it kinda well, might've been before you started drinking then, you definetely said you didn't but I can't remember if it was that or just the manner in which people drink you objected with.

No, of course I wouldn't want someone in my family taking heroin but not because it would make them a bad person, but because I would obviously be very worried about them.

But that is ridiculous example, I could make a stupid one like you did. Would you rather have a casual cannabis smoker in your family or someone who steals money, TVs and jewellery from old peoples houses?

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

I have never objected with people drinking, I never used to drink and if I did it would be occasionally, ive never had a rant about it though :S Smoking and drugs I dont like though.

[thersonli1keano]

never said you did, now answer the question that was as ridiculous as yours.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

Erm, yes you did.

'I thought you were the one that didn't believe in breaking the law and all that before, ranting about drinking and drugs or whatever because it was illegal?'

Again, drugs is drugs. I honestly dont know which one I'd rather have, take it as you want, but thats my answer. Your probaly on dope yourself.

I meant I never said you had a rant about it.

And also I never said you did do that, I admitted I could be wrong in recollecting it, I searched it and i think I was thinking of the thread about Underage Drinking that Ben made a while back.

And I can't believe you think someone who steals from the elderly is on par with someone who smokes cannabis occasionally?

What the hell is your reasoning behind that? It's sick.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

I actaully didnt see the elderly persons bit, you have a point about mine being a ridiculous example, but ive never had a rant about underage drinking, I've probaly had a rant about the kids who sit on the green (a area in kirkby) and just drink cheap cider, but I go to pubs and that and have a drink and due to my family they dont mind.

[thersonli1keano]

So if they weren't elderly, you wouldn't say it was worse than smoking cannabis?

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

It all depends on the circumstances, Cannabis for me is underrated as a drug anyway, class C is shocking.

I don't see how something which directly hurts someone else is ever better than doing something which (potentially) can harm yourself.

haha, would be interesting to come on here and read latws confusing attempts at arguments.

trippy stuff.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

Hardly confusing, they just differ completly from your views, and I nevermeant he was on it now, but theirs a more than likely chance he smokes it. I dont have anything against the people who do it, just cant see the point.

[M4ttst3r]

I dont have anything against the people who do it, just cant see the point.

then why bring up the likelihood of iain's smoking pot in an argument against pot?...

If you have nothing against people that do it then why do you think they're just as bad as people who burgle peoples houses?

crazy fool

and what matty'ole said.

[terrier 4 life]

I cum blood is one of theirs is it not?

yessss, with lyrics which can only be described as beautiful and profound.

Swollen with liquid
Ready to burst
A load of my lymph
Will quench this dead body's thirst
One month in the grave
twisted and half decayed
She turned a putrid yellow
I ****e din her maggot filled *******

****ing the rotting
My semen is bleeding
The smell of decay
Seeps from her genital cavity

The smell was unbearable
As I unburied her
I cum blood from my erection
I feel it run
down her throat, swallow

Eyes glassy and vacant
body dug up to play with
Skin greasy and naked
tounguing her rotted anus

I need a live woman
to fill with my fluid
A delicate girl, to mutilate, **** and kill
her body exceptional
she thought I was normal
but I wanted more

f#cking weird man, feel free to delete or put in a spoiler or whatever, they're awful really.

[Drinky_07]

Fall of Troy - I Just Got This Symphony Goin'






EDIT: For all you Buckley fans out there, you might like this band, As Cities Burn:

-k_LxAj9B-4

They released a fantastic debut album 4 years ago: Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest - and it was raved about by critics. Quite possibly the post hardcore album of our generation. But their lead singer left, and his brother and band guitarist took over the vocals, and took the band in a more progressive direction. I don't why, and it might be just me, but they remind me of Jeff Buckley (Obviously, not at that level)

[The Evil Eye]

VersaEmerge

Pretty much the band I want Paramore to be. Similar vocals, but a damn sight heavier, love it :D

[tottivillarossi]

VersaEmerge

It's about time someone else has started taking notice of them!

Technical musicianship, and fantastic vocals. They've dropped the screaming and male/female vocals, and let Sierra sing on her own - granted, it does work. Why you'd want Paramore to be them I don't know.
If only they'd stop recording bloody EPs and release a full length! Still, one of my favourite bands atm.

Pretty funny :lol:

[Ireland7]

It wasn't that there was anything wrong with the tune of Beyonce's If I Were A Boy. The tune was nice. Very nice. Well done that woman who wrote it who wasn't Beyonce.

But the words made us want to buy a bra, wear it until it became fashionable for men to wear bras and then burn that bra in protest and disgust at the ludicrously clichéd portrayal of men within its fake-empowerment verses.

Thank god someone else said it.

There's a delicious kind of justice in the fact that the supposedly cool and iconic Verve failed where the apparently uncool Take That succeeded.

Downloading Mobb Deeps Infamous album after a reccomandation from a mate. Is it any good? Considering i'm more into the 'West Coast' Sh*t ;) lol.

Dan Le Sac vs Scoobius Pip - A Letter From God To Man

Scroobius is a feckin genius, and the use of Radiohead samples just makes this even more brilliant.

"So I’m writing to apologize for all the horrors committed in my name,
Although that was never what I intended, I feel I should take my share of the blame.
All the good I tried to do was corrupted when all the religion got into full swing,
What I thought were quite clear messages were taken to unusual extremes.
My teachings taken out of context to meet the agendas of others,
Interpretations taken to many different ways and hidden meanings discovered

Religion became a tool, for the weak to control the strong
With all these new morals and ethics, survival of the fittest was gone
No longer could the biggest man simply take whatever he needed
‘cause damnation was the price if certain rules were not heeded

Some of the deeds committed in my name just made me wonder were I went wrong.
Back at the start when I created this, the foundation seemed so strong.
See all the elements were already here, long before I began, I just kind of put it all together
I didn’t really think out a long-term plan."

couple of verses there, it just gets better from there.

Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton found dead (http://www.nme.com/news/the-stooges/41900).

RIP to one of my favourite guitarists. It's always been a dream of mine to see The Stooges play live, and even if they do continue to tour, their sound will never be the same. As a tribute, I will listen to their first three studio albums.

[JamesMXPX]

"we can't imagine anyone was really expecting Oasis to write another Some Might Say, but they returned with a set of songs so lacklustre we can't imagine how anyone involved retained the will to live.

Don't say that! And their new stuff was always gonna be good, they've not released a thing in 5 years.

They're a seriously cool band, Walk Away from their last album is one of my favourite songs of the 21st century. Few would agree with me but still.

edit: but you're right, ulysses and what she came for off the new album are both proper proper big tunes.

[evilhomer28]

Aint you heard that enough on Fifa?

Its on fifa? all i keep hearing is Duffy lol


and yeah i like the riff from Time to Pretend Flamedude but i just don't really like it.

Franz Ferdinand are very good, but I wouldnt class them better than The Killers or Kaiser Chiefs etc, IMO.

yeah, i mean they're pretty good, i think it always annoyed me how they were always touted as 'the band bloc party are trying to be' which is riiiidiculous. and i wasn't a fan of their more famous stuff either, Dark of the Matinee is pretty damn awesome though.

i'll have to get hold of their new album i think, if it's a bit different to Take Me Out, Do You Wanna and stuff like that.

oh, and we are scientists are my current obsession, i think keith murray is genius and they are brilliant.

LATW- i'd say franz ferdinand were better than the kaiser chiefs (although i'm not a big fan of them at all) but i agree that they're nowhere near the killers.

Agree with the KC part - Kaiser Chiefs are awful, there's nothing original or exciting about them at all.

They over use the whole 'ahhhhhhhh' 'woooooooahh' 'ooooohhh ohhhh' thing, every fckin song. Awful lyrics and the lead singer thinks he's Damon Albarn. And his annoying little looks to the camera, grr.

I can see why some people would like them if they went very little from their music, they're an alright pop band I guess but I wouldn't waste my time.

I hate them with a passion though, to be honest though most people don't need an explanation as to why they're craaap.

oh and they're from leeds aren't they? :D

To be fair Razorlight's first album was decent. They've gone completely downhill since then and it is true that Johnny Borrel is a bit of a tit.

Don't like the Kaiser Cheifs either, can't understand why they are so popular to be honest.They make boring and bland pop music and the line 'what do you want for tea? i want crisps' from their latest song is quite possibly the worst lyric ever written. But I don't have massive hatred towards them like some people seem to have. If you don't like them don't listen to them, simple really.

KC won't headline. Just won't. Although could be seeing them second top on the main stage =\ I just have a feeling the won't headline. As for Razorlight, they last headlined in 07(?) so they won't be back headlining for a couple of years yet.

tbh i'm not bothered about spending the headline act at the main stage this time, i fancy going to the nme stage and the dance tent/lockup (the cribs were amazing last time headlining the nme stage) but i only caught 3 or 4 songs), so if there is a shít headliner it will work to my advantage.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

Am I the only one who thinks Razorlight are amazing?

[Unitedjack5]

Squeeze - Up the Junction.

[Drinky_07]

Janis Joplin - Try

[tottivillarossi]

Demi Lovato - Until You're Mine

[United Forever]

Am I the only one who thinks Razorlight are amazing?

Yeah.

Alexandra's version of Hallelujah is f*cking me right off. It just has no atmosphere to it whatsoever, and the Jeff Buckley version gave it that, and it's mainly what attracted me to his version. Also, she just completely ruins it with the obligatory key change which is common with most pop rip offs.

[evilhomer28]

Am I the only one who thinks Razorlight are amazing?

...............yes.............

I bought Animal Collective's new one today. On first listen it feels a little samey, but it seems like the type of thing that can take a while to get into. Been listening to The Holy Bible by the Manics a lot lately as well; I might get their new album when it's released.

[Winning Days]

Squeeze - Up the Junction.

Nice one, 'Squeeze' are a brilliant band.

[Drinky_07]

Johnny Cash; Hurt, Jackson, Walk the line, Man in Black, Cry Cry Cry.

Quality songs, especialy Hurt, which is proberly one of the greatest covers of all time, better than Buckleys Hallejuah.

I'm not sure whether I would want this or not.

I'd love to see them live, but if they got back together, I doubt they'll ever be as good as they were =/

That's just it, Mark said that they are on talking terms again, and if they ever got back together it would have to be bigger and better than they were before:
"None of us know exactly what's going to happen. I do know that we're all very stoked to be talking again, laughing and letting the past remain in the past. But we're also coming together after an extremely acrimonious band breakup, a lot of anger and frustration with one another and four years of not talking. I think that we need to get back to a certain point as friends before we could ever take a stage together again, because that's what we always based everything on.

If — and this is a big if — Blink-182 were ever to re-form, it would have to be the most amazing, ridiculous, mind-blowing show and tour ever. I feel like, as bitter as our breakup was, we stepped back at the top of our game, and we'd have to come back even stronger and better than before."

Could be a year before they even start thinking of doing anything based on that. Imagine the tour + album that they'd bring out though, it'd be worth the wait.

[Drinky_07]

Adam, I like it, it's not as good as the original

This both shocks and disturbs me. However are you a NIN fan? As I am not.

Blink 182 get back together what ever they release cannot be as bad as there last albums. Even though it grows on you, its not the same Blink.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Nah, I'm not really a NIN - what I've heard I like though. But their original 'Hurt' was a masterpiece.

[Drinky_07]

Nah, I'm not really a NIN - what I've heard I like though. But their original 'Hurt' was a masterpiece.

Cash's you can feel his pain in the song, you know its sung by a man whose time on this earth is coming to an end

the way he sings 'I hurt my self today, to see if I see feel' just sets the sombre tone for the whole song.

Both are about differnt things though, Cash is about his near impending death. Trents is about Self Harm/Drugs imo.

[tottivillarossi]

In retrospect ;)


I prefer the way NIN do it, with the immense muscianship.

Arctic Monkeys - Favourite Worst Nightmare LP.....finally got it from piccadilly records on saturday, i swear they do't like me in that shop.

[Winning Days]

Primal Scream - Screamadelica

Easily the best of Primal Scream's albums. Best tracks are 'Movin' On Up', 'Come Together' & 'Loaded'.

[United Forever]

Twin Atlantic are releasing their debut album some time this year. I can't wait!

[tottivillarossi]

Four Letter Lie - Nothing But A Ghost. Pop punk with screaming (L)

[Drinky_07]

Pop Punk, don't even get me started on that 'genre'

Anyways, I need some new tunes, suggestions?

[tottivillarossi]

Ha, why not? I guess FLL are more post-hardcore, but their singer has a voice made for pp.


Can you stand screaming?
Do you mind if it's generic?
Do you like rock music?

Brand New - fantastic band.

[Drinky_07]

Ha, why not? I guess FLL are more post-hardcore, but their singer has a voice made for pp.

Pop Punk is a lie, Punk cant be Pop, its anti-pop. Blink 182 and bands in that Genre are just Pop bands with electric guitars and a rocky influence.

Can you stand screaming? Depends how much
Do you mind if it's generic? Not all
Do you like rock music? Ayeeeeee

Brand New - fantastic band. will try them out


12345678910

[tottivillarossi]

If you don't mind high pitched voices, try Circa Survive. Anthony Green's voice is very high, but he is veryveryvery good.

Fall of Troy - you wouldn't believe they only have 1 guitarist when you listen to those riffs.

Joesph Arthur - Good acoustic songs

Motion City Soundtrack - Happyhappyhappy band :D

Pierce The Veil - Again, high pitched voice, but sooo good.

The Spill Canvas - Great lyrics, bit generic though.


Blink are pop punk though, one of the biggest pop punk bands ever. Their earlier stuff was more pop punk though.

[Drinky_07]

Blink are pop punk though, one of the biggest pop punk bands ever. Their earlier stuff was more pop punk though.

Pop punk is just at odds, you can't be punk and pop at the same time. Agree that their earlier stuff was more heavy and rock based to cr*p like 'i miss you' and 'down'

I'l take a look at those bands cheers.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Depends on what you're definition of punk is, really. I've always thought it was more of an ideology than a specific sound. I mean, the whole point of punk was to be different. I think hip hop groups like Public Enemy or soul singers like Gil-Scott Heron get the meaning of punk way more than the majority of British bands going in the late seventies and early eighties. Apart from a few bands, they were just a bunch of nihilistic skinheads, to be honest, and punk is a lot more than that.

On the subject of Blink-182, though, they're really, really ****.

[thersonli1keano]

I'd agree with them being a bit shhit, well compared to the stuff I listen to now. but growing up on them it's hard not to still love them, which I'm assuming is the case for much of this forum including me.

[tottivillarossi]

You don't like them, fair enough. You cant deny the influence they've had on the genre though, you need to have some skill to be able to do that.

[Drinky_07]

JJ - Thats my point, how can pop ever be Punk?

Blink-182 are just not cr*p, greatest band ever when I was a tiny little girl, back in my mosher days them and Nirvana got me through life.

[tottivillarossi]

Pop punk isn't really calling pop punk, it's just a genre considered to be between pop and punk.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Pop punk isn't really calling pop punk, it's just a genre considered to be between pop and punk.
I don't think punk is a genre, though.

And Blink-182 are no different from your average boy band, really. They're all aimed at pretty much the same audience. It's no coincidence that the majority of fans eventually grow out of them, and the fact that people are defending them over nostalgic reasons rather than the actual music isn't surprising. It's not that it's a particularly bad thing to have liked them. I mean, if anything, it's expected. I just think they make horribly generic music.

You're comparing Blink to Backstreet Boys? Bit insulting :p

People grow out of them, because people grew up with them. It's not a really a coincidence that as Blink got deeper into their career, and got worse, that they started to loose a few earlier fans.

Horribly generic by todays standards, just 'generic' when they first started ;) Seriously, the amount of bands shooting for the 'pop punk' genre is ridiculous - very few are any good.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Just different tastes, I suppose.

They're no backstreet boys though, I mean it's not like they're a manufactured boy band, there is an element about them of them kinda being real and representing that people they were once like.

And Robert Smith wouldn't collaborate with your average boy band either.

I think they're one of many bands that jumped on the bandwagon in the '90s. They signed to the big label and got Jerry Finn to work with them, just like everybody else did (he produced for Green Day, Rancid, Sum 41 etc), and they just got more and more predictable and manufactured. They never strived to do anything different. They were more than happy to keep selling the same stuff that everyone else was at the time.

Saying Backstreet Boys are crap when they sold that many records and made so much money is ridiculous, to sell thatmany they must have had a huge fanbase, which meant that people liked them.

No they arent in my taste at all, frankly if I listened to them I'd consider my sexuality, however saying that theyre rubbish or average or whatever is ridiculous.

www.decemberists.com - free download of a track off the new album, looks like its gonna be cool

"No more a rake and no more a bachelor
I was wedded and it whetted my thirst
Until her womb start spilling out babies
Only then did I reckon my curse
Alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright

First came Eziah with his crinkled little fingers
Then came Charlotte and that wretched girl Dawn
Ugly Myfanwy died on delivery
Mercifully taking her mother along
Alright, alright, alright

What can one do when one is widower
Shamefully saddled with three little pests
All that I wanted was the freedom of a new life
So my burden I began to divest
Alright, alright, alright
Alright, alright, alright

Charlotte I buried after feeding her foxglove
Dawn was easy, she was drowned in the bath
Eziah fought but was easily bested
Burned his body for incurring my wrath
Alright, alright, alright"

COOL

some of them nominations are a load of absolute crap.

LOL.

Only one track through, and first impression is that I prefer the other version of Death To Los Campesinos!

LOL.

I'm sure it'd be a different story if it were Coldplay's Viva La Vida by Oasis;)

Besides, the album got me into Coldplay =\

No Pjanoo in floor filler?

I can find at least one nomination in each category I'd agree with, but also at least one in each that is utter crap (bebo best website, Noel Fielding hero of the year), never mind the fact the dancefloor filler ones aren't really dance music at all :p

Voting starts for best single and best live band for the brits on Monday, maybe that will be more worthwhile.

Best album artwork - Day & Age? did they run out of ideas?

Only for you Niall, if you were going to buy me pick and mix.

[tottivillarossi]

Stand beside me
Let me see what it tastes like
Don't be scared about me
I am here just to see you die


The way the screams and clean vocals work together on that verse is veryyy good.

I actually think I may have found my new favourite band, ever since FFAF's latest album (which was very meh) I lost interest in them tbh. Not had a true 'favourite band' ever since.

Just realised, we could have had that, we were animals that weekend Ben dear... We're so cool.

zZz - Sound of zZz

Minimalistic synth band from Holland; very similar to Suicide (who I've been really into lately). Other than that, there's this experimental hip hop group called Dälek who are really good. They've got a new album out at the moment called Gutter Tactics: political lyrics over an industrial, Einstürzende Neubauten-esque sound.

Gave Nickel Eye's album a listen to via Spotify, as well, but it seems distinctly average on first listen, as does To Lose My Life... by White Lies (though I wasn't really expecting to like that). Bruce Springsteen's album, however, is surprisingly good.

[thersonli1keano]

i
don't
know
why i feel
so
tongue

tied.



myxomatosis (judge, jury and executioner) - radiohead (off of hail to the thief).

fantastic album seriously, this probably being my third favourite track on it after i will (no man's land) - which has three thom yorke vocal parts at once(!) - and punch up at a wedding (no no no no no no no no).

updated favourite radiohead albums:

hail to the thief > in rainbows > ok computer > kid a + amnesiac > the bends > pablo honey

(not that i don't love the bends, every track on there is top drawer.. just the others are better, more groundbreaking)

Lets not forget falling down stairs.

Anyways

The Smiths - How soon is now.

Not listend to it in time.

[Jimmy Jazz]

C-mon & Kypski - Static Traveller

These are fantastic. They're a Dutch hip hop group who have this perfect mix of funk, jazz and world music. There's a definite De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest influence. Kypski is the six-time national turntable champion in Holland, too. This isn't my favourite album of theirs, even though it's still pretty good, it feels a little too long.

Also, does anyone here still use last.fm?

Mmmhmmm. Link's in my sig.

[terrier 4 life]

i still use last.fm, if only to delete shouts from some douche who keeps starting on me over the internet >.<
nah it's all good really, i like last.fm..

i listened to alot of bloc party and alot of the smiths earlier, which just further alienated them from the rest of my top 15 artists on last.fm.

[M4ttst3r]

i think that you should all listen to wonderlust king by gogol bordello. cool, it is.

also, i use last.fm still: www.last.fm/user/truthypants/

Cog - Sharing Space

Awesome song.

[Drinky_07]

Been listening to some older Coldolay songs like fix you, the scientist and yellow. Realised that they were good back then, now they are awful.

[tottivillarossi]

Brace yourself cause we’re all going down.
Watch us run out this race as we burn this place to the ground.
So tell me, is this what you expected?
Cause we’re so screwed.
But we're far from protected.
Or so they promised you.
I’ll say it slow to get it through;
We’re wasting our days as we try to get a grip on our lives.
But they’re slipping away.
And we’re all going to die here.
Unless we can learn to behave.

[Leeds_All_The_Way]

Madness and The Jam.

[tottivillarossi]

Sing for life, sing for choices
sing for everyone without voices

Sing for love.
Sing for laughter.
Sing for everyone here and after.
Sing for fear.
Sing for hatred.
Sing for everyone less than scared.
Sing for life.
Sing for choices.
Sing for everyone without voices.
you can pray while they all keep sinking away.

a hero won't come in time. a martyr won't save our lives.
he can't.

I doubled that post like an entendre.



Here's what Fat Mike of NOFX had to say about Avenged Sevenfold:

Quote:
"Avenged Sevenfold is the epitome of what’s wrong with rock and roll. They support Bush. Support the Iraq War. Wouldn’t accept a drink ’cause they have to play the next day, but tell everyone they party. And play to a ****ing DAT tape. However, a couple of them are decent poker players."
