DARRYLXWF 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2003 I presume you're referring to this: EDIT: UGGGHHH Strewth mate, I said I don't want any of that artsy, indie bullshit. My God, what did I do to deserve being exposed to that??? I have been aurally abused. I don't want to be lulled into some kind of off-key trance, I want to be entertained. Mate, how can you listen to that tripe? Genuinely one of the worst pieces of "music" I have ever had the misfortune to be exposed to. Thank you for trying though.

Guest Fire and Knives Report post Posted September 30, 2003 That's the thing. As a rule, I don't expend effort on people that annoy me. It feels like a waste of time I could be spending elsewhere. Let's just mock them offhand and keep a tally. K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We got your death noise, gore noise, Black noise, grind noise, grinding black death gore noise, industrial noise, agoraphobic nosebleed 600BPM white noise, and the Pixies.

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted September 30, 2003 All of which is immensely better than Saliva. Saliva is a void of notes where music should be. You just don't like other things because it's not popular. That might not be the complete truth, but it's the image you're giving off. As far as what band am I in, at the time it was called Inebriated, which pretty much explains our entire focus and goal at that point. We're not signed, and I don't make a dime off of my music. At no point did I claim I was a gifted virtuoso. I'm pretty damn good, but far from amazing. By asking this question, you're assuming that a band must be signed to be talented. That is a monumentally stupid idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I meant it's scary that the guy actually believes that if you're signed you're better than someone who isn't.

SamoaRowe 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Saliva got so watered down with their second batch of singles. "Always" and "Rest in Pieces" don't have the same bite that "Your Disease" and "Click, Click, Boom!" had. I haven't listened to their albums, I judge them merely on what I've heard on the radio (which hasn't been bad, and has established itself). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 I know I've heard multiple Saliva songs now, but I know there's more than one where the singer complains about how other singers whine about how crummy their parents are, and how he never whines about that kind of thing in his music. By mentioning that over and over, he's creating a second cliche for himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nanks Report post Posted October 13, 2003 I can only think of that in one song. One reference. Click Click Boom from memory. I like that reference. That line pretty leads into him just saying the music is kick back and don't think music. I like that he doesn't pretend the music is anything more than it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No crying-ass bitching about my wife or girlfriend. Cause in my life I can't have either one. No crying-ass bitching about my evil parents. They did their best to raise their only son.

Thus far, the only actual fans of Saliva that I've ever met are my uncle, who is the stereotypical gearhead, and my student-fornicating Algebra teacher. Good company right there.
