It's comforting to know that some things never change.

I eagerly await the day when time forgets The Vines.

Patrick · « **Reply #253 on:** 01 Dec 2008, 07:24 »

I had already forgotten them. A girl I used to be really good friends with was really into the Vines.

We used to be good friends, see.

Thrillho · « **Reply #254 on:** 01 Dec 2008, 07:30 »

The Vines were also called the new Nirvana. They had some pretty good tunes, although when I reviewed their Best Of it was slightly annoying that it advertised their next studio album.

Great song is great live.

Be fair, though. Treating We Used to Be Friends as "that Veronica Mars song" is like treating Teardrop as "that House song".

Guys, the obvious solution is to stop watching shitty shows like Veronica Mars.

Hot Hot Heat were nowhere near "horrible". Mediocre, perhaps, but they had some good songs.

Hot Hot Heat's singer is probably the strangest looking human being alive.

He looks like a Muppet. A Muppet Baby.

Eh, I can stand 1 or 2 of Dope's songs. Decent to bop your head to while buzzed.

Everclear. I like a couple of their songs, but "Father of Mine" forever damned them to musical hell.

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #269 on:** 05 Dec 2008, 22:21 »

Everclear were halfway decent until they stopped doing drugs and got all self-righteous and sonically shitty.

"Santa Monica" is an amazing song and I don't care what anyone says. I'm also a fan of "Heroin Girl," "Electra Made Me Blind," and to a certain extent "You Make Me Feel Like a Whore." I could pass on everything else by them though.

Christophe · « **Reply #271 on:** 06 Dec 2008, 07:20 »

All coming from the Same Goddamn Album:

Oh Everclear, if only you faded away after this actually-listenable album, it would've spared you embarrassment in the long run. Y'know, before you started writing the same. fucking. song. every. fucking. time.

Ptommydski · « **Reply #272 on:** 06 Dec 2008, 07:38 »

valley_parade · « **Reply #275 on:** 06 Dec 2008, 08:18 »

Quite honestly, I really do love Bad Religion. They were one of the only reasons I went to Warped Tour last summer.

(that said, I'm not a big fan of the newest album.)

EDIT:: Have we forgotten Staind and POD yet?

Chumbawumba didn't sing who let the dogs out! They sang "I GET KNOCKED DOWN BUT I GET UP AGAIN YOU'RE NEVER GUNNA KEEP ME DOWN" apart from that song they were an anarcho punk band.

Patrick · « **Reply #277 on:** 06 Dec 2008, 08:34 »

1. It is Chumbawamba, take a look at the album cover ferchrissake and then you can insult them and their completely relevant social commentary
2. You're right, that shitty horrible piece of trash was done by Baha Men.

This requires some thought. Let me think of some way we can find a gentle consensus of sorts.

If there was credibility in the accuracy of band names, here is how I rate the following groups -

Average White Band
- 100%

American Music Club
- 66.6%

Bad Religion
- 50%

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #280 on:** 06 Dec 2008, 10:24 »

Bad Religion had a lot of mediocre material but they had good intentions at least. They were kind of the Michael Moore of punk. Their early work, particularly songs like "Superman", is still enjoyable to me.

I winced pretty hard when they did that tour OPENING for Blink-182.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #281 on:** 06 Dec 2008, 10:28 »

Tommy it's cool that you like them and all but calling them a religion is just overboard.

billiumbean · « **Reply #282 on:** 08 Dec 2008, 20:26 »

Hot Hot Heat. Oh my god, no.

I saw them live, the dude sang like he didn't know that microphones amplify sound. And everyone down here was stoked to see "a CANADIAN band!".

Bad Religion is sort of bad at being punx but I still like them! Greg Graffin is so educated! He uses words like "recompense".

I have a soft spot for Bad Religion just because I used to sing the songs off Stranger Than Fiction when I was like 9 and the idea of a nine-year-old girl singing those angry songs with big words is very funny.

I am just an atom in an ectoplasmic sea
Without direction or a reason to exist.
The anechoic nebula rotating in my brain
Is persuading me, contritely, to persist.

From a different album, but I was basically the same way. My brother was a huge Bad Religion fan in his early teen years and used to play Suffer a lot so I kind of just learned the words when I was like 7.

I was wondering if it's possible that people already forgot about the thing where someone posted pictures from Graffin masturbating to a chubby underage BR fan over a webcam.

Since then I've pretty much laughed whenever I've heard his name.
