Off Topic 2010

Re: Off Topic 2010

Hm, I'm intrigued by this Crash Kings band. Gonna check them out tonight.

And I still haven't gotten in to Muse even though I've only heard good things. One of these days...

I can't get enough of the Crash Kings. They're such a solid band. Great writing, production, instrumentals, everything. It's a piano, a bassist, and a drummer. But he uses some crazy stuff on his piano that gives it an electric guitar sound. Watch some of their performances on YouTube. You just have to see it. I saw them live here in KC with Ben Folds, Silversun Pickups and Devo, and other than Folds, Crash Kings ripped it up.

If you're trying to get into Muse, listen to Absolution. That's what Muse is all about. Matt Bellamy is one of the most brilliant lyricists and composers I've ever seen. All around awesome band, I can't think of a song I don't like. And no one ever talks about their first album, and I love it. It's definitely different than anything else they've done.

cma, great avatar... great freaking album by Weezer.

What's your fav. song thus far? I'm really enjoying All My Friends are Insects, Trainwrecks, and Ruling Me.

I love Ruling Me and Unspoken so far. The album is still my fourth favorite overall, but I'm enjoying it. Obviously, they won't ever be back to Blue and Pinkerton form, but I'm happy. I wish though that Rivers wouldn't rely so heavily on outside writers and artists. I think it would have a more old school feel and less like The Rivers Show that they've become.

I suppose... but I really like the sound of the album, to be fair. I think it's probably my 3rd favorite album (behind Pinkerton and Blue, obvs). Would you put Green higher than Hurley?

Uh...it won't stop thundering.

Like, it's literally been one long rumble of thunder for the past 5 minutes.

No Maladroit actually. I love the instrumentals on that album.Just the overall feel is awesome. But yeah, I do like the feel of Hurley. Green's my fifth favorite followed by Red, Raditude, and Make Believe. Definitely more the Weezer I fell in love with.

I think I'd have to go:

Pinkerton
Blue
Hurley
Red
Green

Raditude
Make Believe
Maladroit

But there's a massive gap between Green and Raditude. I hardly listen to much on Raditude/Make Believe/Maladroit.

Man I feel like I'm the only one who loves Maladroit. IDK what it is about it, but Green is a very close second to Maladroit. I'd definitely agree with the Rad, Red, and Make Believe being very far away from the others. Do you go Pinkerton before Blue? I think I do, but I change my mind all the time on it.

I generally keep Pinkerton on top. Blue was good, but Pinkerton is a masterpiece, IMO.

Just remembered another song I really like off of Hurley: I Want To Be Something

Acoustic and great.

See, whe I heard Raditude, I was done with them.

Pinkerton and then Blue. I actually liked Maladroit a bit.

Green-Red-Make Believe-Raditude are all weak IMHO. Especially Raditude. That album actually made me angry.

Re: Off Topic 2010

Then again, for my major, it is so fluid and I basically can write whatever I want and still be right...

I didn't know they offered a bachelor's in that. I mean isn't that what most Browns fans are smart in..."Major-Disappointments."

I believe you're confusing them with Cubs fans. Cleveland doesn't have high expectations to begin with so one can't really be disappointed at the end of the season.
