  1. What was your problem with his voice? He sounds exactly like Mick Jagger to me on the new album
  2. In February of next year they will be playing the National Auditorium in Mexico City which fits 10,000 people. They sold it out yesterday just a few hours after tickets went on sale. This will be the biggest crowd they've played in front of as a headliner. EP, have you heard the song Automatic Sun yet? Since you're a musician I was interested in your take on the sound of the song and the unique stuff it sounds like they're doing. Also, Dany is experimenting a bit more with her vocals on it.
  3. I guess that depends on what he thinks the ripper is going to rip
  4. What albums have you tried before? They're really only good up through the early 90s. After that it's the same old same old with them and they miss more than they hit.
  5. That new Lacuna Coil track is pretty bland. Even more than Never Dawn. Even with help from another band the song isn't much. The new Within Temptation single is much better. At least the chorus has a hook.
  6. Tom Sawyer. Good song. Just never understood why it's their biggest song? It really doesn't have much of a chorus or a big hook in it like many of their other hits do. It's not even a catchy as some songs from them that never became well known. I guess it being unique musically is what might be it's big appeal. But being musically unique describes the majority of Rush songs. I guess I'm in the "I just don't get it" group when it comes to the songs appeal.
  7. I've been all digital for a few years now. The majority of my interneting is done on my phone and with Spotify on it I have the full discography of every band I like right there. So I listen to everything on Spotify now. I still have a stereo and CDs and I still buy CDs because I like owning and looking at the whole packaging but I haven't actually listened to a CD in ages.
  8. I find when I revisit old favorites I haven't heard in a while that I hear things that I didn't notice before. Sometimes it's good to take a break from a band even when you love them a lot. It's always nice to reapproach them with fresh ears.
  9. Butchered Comalies is toilet worthy. I have no idea what they were thinking? I would rather the band just stay quiet for an extended period of time and work on new material instead of trying something like this. I sometimes think things like this are pushed on the band by the record label because when I listen to it I'm baffled as to why any band would want to do something like this to an album that is considered by many to be their best and be ok with it.
  10. Same here. It's one of those words that I am familiar with but had to look up the meaning to since it's not a word that I use or come across in every day conversation.
  11. I find it strange that it's only been recently, since the band started to become more popular, that something they've done being too pop is a problem for some fans. The band has had pop hooks in their songs since the beginning. Why did they have no issues with it when the band wasn't as well known? Sorry, I'm not taking a shot at you. It's just that It's too pop has only been a complaint since they released More last year. It never came up before that. I first heard HYCAD when they played it live back in October of last year. I never even realized there were backing vocals during the keyboard part of the chorus until I heard the studio version. I don't consider it pop though. I see it as something that the fans will be able to sing along to live. Just like the other songs they have with "oh, oh, ohs" in them. Much like The Beatles, The Warning is a rock band that has a lot of pop in what they do melodically.
  12. Here's another recording of Automatic Sun. This one captures the Tom Morello style slide Dany does up and down the neck of the guitar during the intro. The riff to this is really heavy. Tony Iommi would be proud.
