Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2007 Paramore - Riot. There's really nothing worse. Zack Malibu disagrees with you. Indeed I do. The major flaw with Riot! is that it's almost like what some people would call a "sell out" album, in that they seem to be wanting to goad in the pop-alt crowd and commercialize themselves, rather than stick with what they normally do. While I enjoy the album, All We Know Is Falling is ten times better. They put on a good live show too. First time I saw them (and heard them, mind you), they were the opening act for a band called Acceptance. 2 years later and while Acceptance broke up, the opening acts that night (Paramore, Cartel, Augustana and Receiving End Of Sirens) all came into their own.

Guest Gym Class Fallout Report post Posted October 15, 2007 I just think they sound absolutely terrible. It's just Avril Lavigne + Fall Out Boy, really, and their single isn't even that memorable. At least "Girlfriend" was so catchy it made you want to defenestrate yourself just to stop it from playing in your head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least "Girlfriend" was so catchy it made you want to defenestrate yourself just to stop it from playing in your head. That's pretty much my point. Riot! comes off at times as "we're trying too hard", as if they want every single to be a Top 40 hit sung out loud in the car. They didn't try that on the first album. In fact "Emergency" is catchier than anything off of Riot!, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Kamala 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 Hands down worst album of the year: "Playing with fire" by Kevin Federline It went certified double copper. 2006 buddy. And I seriously doubt anybody on this board (except maybe Milky) has actually listened to that album. Granted, it's probably shit but nonetheless. I don't think we can nominate albums we haven't listened to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 You're right, I have. It does suck, but it doesn't suck in a funny way, it's just dull. As such, I wouldn't call it the worst album of any year, because it's not aggressively bad, it just has nothing to offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Gym Class Fallout Report post Posted October 18, 2007 Chicks in bands dig dudes in bands. But if you know you're not going to, why bother? Nobody will ever care who you are, and you'll just burst from sexual tension and jealousy. By this logic, we can surmise that the bass player in this band is a homosexual.

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 Somebody hook me up with Clipse, In Rainbows cannot be the best album I have heard that came out this year. Clipse haven't released anything new since last November. Hell Hath No Fury is, however, leaps and bounds better than any album I've heard this year. Okay, you know, I tried. I really did. But that album fucking sucks. I kept it in my car thinking maybe one day I would get what everyone else was hearing but that album really REALLY fucking sucks. There. I said it. I agree 100%. I used to be a big rap fan back in the day, but just completely lost interest the past few years. I went and picked up the Clipse album after everyone creamend themselves over it and just couldn't figure out what the big deal was. I listened to it three or four times and just couldn't get into it. At all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Gym Class Fallout Report post Posted October 19, 2007 No place for an Augustana shoutout like a "Worst Album" thread, I guess, but even then, they're not offensive enough to be the worst at anything. It's like Coldplay. EDIT: re: outfits They're trying too hard. I especially like Mr. Longhair in the vest and tight pants, grabbing his crotch. He looks like Metal Ed's gay brother who moved to the big city, but never forgot his Wausau roots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
