Akron/Family- Raising the Sparks
Well I loved the opening guitar of the song. I was really getting into it ..............then the vocals came in...........honestly I thought they were terrible. It got somewhat better around the 2 minute mark and I enjoyed it a bit from there. Not terrible but not sonething I'd listen to either.
4/10

Avenged Sevenfold- Bat Country
This band has a talented drummer. Unfortunately, that talent is wasted. The guitar, vocals, and lyrics are bland and terrible. This is radio friendly "rock". 2/10.
How about Asobi Seksu?
Asobi Seksu- New Years

third thought: "i like the music, and the singers aren't bad"
overall i liked it. it was a good listen. i just wish i could undertand the lyrics.

Man, that A7X song was nowhere near as bad as I'd expected. Vocals especially were really generic, but it didn't have a bad solo and it had a pretty nice 80's vibe to it which saved it a bit. Also, Fear and Loathing. I was braced for second album My Chemical Romance and had only downloaded to mock. Pretty good for the scene they come from though, though still not my thing.
Asobi Seksu - New Years
Starts up with noisy guitar and upbeat organ. Then a very syrupy, out of place seeming female Japanese voice kicks in, working suprising well with the instrumentation, but seeming rather cliche. There is a somewhat post-punky vibe, however, a suggestion of an east-asian Cocteau Twins. There's also a great bit with a massively processed 'scream' of noise. Not that bad a track everything considered, and certainly not your average j-pop. 7/10
And now, rocking out with the cock out.
Cathedral - Hopkins (the Witchfinder General)
Storm Rider:
Oh maaaan I love Cathedral. So I can't do this.
But both this band and the band this song is a tribute to kick total ass and everyone in this thread should know that.
