What sort of mooozic is it that they play?

Decotron · 4th December 2009, 10:52

Originally Folky Rock now mostly souless chart music

Stanley Road · 4th December 2009, 11:03

Ok

How this ended up in this forum i'm not sure

TuTuHimm · 4th December 2009, 11:09

At what point did they turn into The Jonas Brothers?

1871_Biscuit · 4th December 2009, 11:19

What forum should it have ended up in?

O and they've been turning into the Jonas Brothers for a long time now. Their hissy fit at Reading Festival sort of capped it.

Ivor Ballokov · 4th December 2009, 11:24

It all went pear shaped when they toured with u2 and decided that was the type of music they aspired to.

Decotron · 4th December 2009, 11:31

Fucking Bono

Yep playing in front of 70,000 each night and seeing Bono walk away with a $1 million a show might do that to you.

* I have no idea what Bono earns a show but ONE MILLION DOLLARS sounded good

Melbourne Red · 4th December 2009, 13:08

To be fair, I always thought their old stuff was gash too.

Wonder Pigeon · 4th December 2009, 16:20

"Someone liiike yooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuu"

Fucks sake, if I wanted to listen to Snow Patrol I'd buy a Snow Patrol album.

Solius · 4th December 2009, 17:09

If I hear Sex On Fire one more time I'm going to shit blood from every orifice.

SharkyMcShark · 4th December 2009, 17:12

I bought their albums before they were cool. Like when they were in the intro movie to FIFA 2004. 11

Sounds like your sex is on fire.

noodlehair · 4th December 2009, 17:33

Seen them twice.

The difference between the first and second time was ridiculous. The second time they just had no life/energy. Amazing how a band can lose so much in such a short time.

They were pretty well known back then.

I'm sure they make a fuckload more though

noodlehair · 5th December 2009, 12:13

Well, if Reading's anything to go by, it doesn't seem to be making them a fuckload happier

A mate of mine said the same thing after he saw them in Abu Dhabi before the Grand Prix. Was the most disappointing concert he's been to he said.

AdZzUtd · 5th December 2009, 13:26

If I was called Caleb wallowill or whatever they are named, I wouldn't be too happy either.

Sarni · 6th December 2009, 16:00

Their second album (Aha Shake Heartbreak) is the best, then the third one. I actually enjoy their music.

askabob · 17th February 2010, 23:42

I really like their album "Because of the Times." Their latest album (the one with Sex on Fire) is dross.

gambit28 · 17th February 2010, 23:53

Lay where you're laying, don't make a sound
I know they're watching, they're watching
All the commotion, the kiddie like play
Has people talking, talking

gambit28 · 17th February 2010, 23:54

Their latest album is better than all their previous ones.

They kinda do in a way. The general public will buy any old crap nowadays. Look at the Christmas number 1, there had to be a massive campaign set up just to stop an incredibly shite song reaching number 1. The general public are retarded when it comes to music, and Kings Of Leons earlier stuff was much better imo.

Exactly.

Madonna > Velvet Underground

Nickelback > The Pixies

SharkyMcShark · 18th February 2010, 01:18

You know, I quite like their current album. I know it's sort of generic and whingy, but I just find it quite listenable to be honest.

My ma considers this some sort of betrayal though - whenever she hears any of their current stuff she calls them a bunch of whiny bastards and points out that they were better back when "they wore singlets all the time and you could tell that they'd beaten their wives just before coming onstage"

Melbourne Red · 18th February 2010, 01:24

Hahaha

Velvet underground and the pixies were shit though. The pixies made one good song then repeated it ad ifinitum. I love music snobs, it's either their way or nothing. Kings of Leons latest album is well produced and you can actually hear their lyrics for once. Just because its not as raw as before doesn't make it their worst album. Get over yourselves.

Sorry, but you can't accuse Velvet Underground of being shit and then expect anyone to take you seriously, about anything.

Yes i can, its very easy as it winds up people who take these things far too seriously. They also did a lot of shitty trippy hippy bollocks that some people make out were genius.

noodlehair · 18th February 2010, 07:54

Nope, it's too late. You've said it now.

gambit28 · 18th February 2010, 08:17

Velevt underground did nothing that wasn't done before by blues artists.
