dammit! what did it say?

[saturnine]

after my first listen, i pretty much feel the same. not that it sucks so much but the fact that nothing was memorable. but i can see why you'd make that correlation. it seems like he's going along with the "same shit, different colour" kind of formula... where he's stuck with the same kind of song structures, shitty lyrics, etc. and is trying to make up for it with lots of noise. the fact that the album is marketed as such is an indicator of that to me. some parts rock really hard, but they're all pretty predictable. it's like he's replaced the ambiance and strings from the fragile with a wall of noise, which has a similar, filler/atmospheric effect.

 

what pisses me off about it so much is how predictable the melodies all are. i could hum the fucking song in my head never having heard it before.

 

aside from the songs that were "leaked" weeks ago, not a whole lot on this album interested me. no "beside you in time" this time around...

it's not even noise. the downward spiral had noise. this is severely lacking.

Trent is washed up. Get over it. With Teeth was hilarious...Year Zero will just be sad.

[Crusader]

wasnt year zero a 30 seconds to mars song? good sign there

[shade]

LOL I love how people think 30 seconds to mars has credibility just because Gayrod 13370 was in Requiem for a Dream

[Crusader]

the movie was okay, the band was terrible

[Hyphnip]

i love how I know that if I like this album, Mrs Jebus and Satman are gonna mock me for it and try to tell me how wrong I am for liking it

[Some Random]

dammit! what did it say?

i was just ripping on ness.

[soundless_space]

30 Seconds to Mars has to be one of the worst bands I've ever heard. They use more rock cliches than Nickleback.

[Muran]

I want to kill their music videos.

[Shiri]

What's so tragic about 30STM is that their first album was actually pretty good. I have no idea what happened afterwards, maybe they decided to become My Chemical Romance.

[Some Random]

maybe they decided to become My Chemical Romance.

i still like their first album, except that whiny bitch song, "i'm not okay".

[Shiri]

I never bothered listening to anything but what I heard on the radio.

regarding nine inch nails:

 

this music isnt for everyone.. you have to have that acquired NIN taste, to love all of the past records to really dig this new album. i'll admit i was expecting a bit of a more epic album, considering all the hype and the massive viral marketing campaign that was done for this album. but you know.. i can listen to this record and feel great so that's all one can ask for. not only that, but all of the hardcore NIN fans out there can boast that they were involved with a great experience that challenged them.. that brought them a lot closer as a community and were just part of something really special. this album really grows on you after a few listens. its a good time to be a NIN fan.

[borntohula]

where the heck is the live drumming? i distinctly remember interviews with trent where he knocked processed beats because they were too cold sounding.

 

most embarrassing moment of year zero thus far:

 

" You should

Get where you belong

Everything you know is wrong

Come on, sing along everybody now"

 

its on par with that moment on the beside you in time DVD when trent tries to get the audience really involved and into the song by making them clap and saying "c'mon" or whatever.

[Some Random]

...not only that, but all of the hardcore NIN fans out there can boast that they were involved with a great experience that challenged them.. that brought them a lot closer as a community and were just part of something really special. this album really grows on you after a few listens. its a good time to be a NIN fan.

dammit, there's no rolly-eyes smiley without the smile. go ahead and boast that you were part of a marketing campaign. and i'll laugh my balls off at you. ;)

[shade]

What is music without marketing?

 

Only good bands nowadays are on ipod commercials apparently.

what the hell are you talking about? seriously, what?

I am wearing my bunny rabbit ears, while rocking out to "The Hand That Feeds"...

 

My morning is good.

[Hyphnip]

<3 for Charles

[bishopx]

<3 you too, Tim...now put Broken in your CD player and continue to rock out.

There's a really boring interview with trent on Best Buy's NIN site. And you can pre-order the album there for 9.99. I listened to the album once, very passively, it wasn't the best.

[Some Random]

i think that 'me, i'm not' should have been titled 'the fonzie song', cuz with all those "ehhhh"s, i think of the fonz whenever i hear it. i like it. it just reminds me of the fonz is all.

[The_Rat_Who_Would_be_King]

Hahaha, well I'll never be able to listen to that song the same way again. Like after Mike and I noticed all the vacuum solos on With Teeth.
