Holy shit.... the ending of Rocket Queen sounded god awful.
Axl sounds pretty bad.

I'm calling it now: Lulu is going to make St. Anger sound like Ride The Lightning.
On a side note...
Cliff Burton must be getting super dizzy from all the rolling over he's been doing in his casket over the last 15-20 years
Well said. Honestly, after St Anger I didn't think they could do any worse.
Kudos for proving me wrong sirs.

really? the Madagascar/Messages one is awesome but this If the World/Slither one blows it outta the water. It actually sounds like this is how it was recorded and ment to be
I had heard a few others and wasn't impressed. It was cool, but nothing I'd listen to.
That If the World/Slither one is amazing though. That is something I would listen to.
#194 Re: The Sunset Strip » Chris Cornell discusses Soundgarden album » 719 weeks ago
They didn't take this long to make an album with so little pomp and symphony so little promotion for the reunion, just to sell out at the last hurdle James.
My Verdict: No ballads. Lots of digital effects.
I really doubt it will have any digital effects.
I could see them doing something acoustic or partially acoustic however. I could also see a "Soundgarden ballad" (I think you may have been thinking of a ballad wrong). I think there would be zero chance of seeing a sappy love song type ballad on a SG album.
Honestly, I don't give a flying fuck whether or not the album does good or gets good reception and reviews and sells 10 million copies. For all I care, it could sell one copy (mine), because all I want is another amazing piece of music from these guys.

I don't know why people are getting the shits with the Foos, I think it's brilliant. The WBC are a bunch of brainwashed fools, their views of what "god hates" is a fucking joke!
I think what they did is wonderful. They came out and played a clean song for the WBC in the same outfits from the video that caused them to protest.
And you saw all the people cheering the Foo Fighters on and ignoring the WBC. That's how it should be. If you pull the attention away from them and refuse to buy into their bullshit or try to get them banned, they lose power. They make money on people hindering their free speech.
Brilliant, insightful post. Agreed.
They decided to protest at my college last year. Of course, the LGBTQ community got all up in arms. So did the ROTC members. As well as a lot of other people. They organized a counter protest across the street from them.
What did I do? I made the active and conscience choice to not go near them and ignore them all together. I fought them by doing absolute unengagement.

I love flaming liberals who have NO RESPECT for others views.
such a contradiction huh?
You put Axl above Dave in the jerk and jackass category because of some comments he made about GNR 20 years ago? Are you insane? Your talking about someone (Axl) who lost his shit on a photographer in an airport for just snapping a few pics among other things.
GNR could take a few pages out the Foo Fighters' book on how to treat fans. They constantly have the fans in mind. From the constant updates to way they perform shows and everything inbetween. If Axl did something like that protest, people on here would be drooling over their keyboards as if it was the best and most original thing to ever happen in rock music.
You will never see a GNR documentary with the band in theaters accompanied by a live broadcasted 3D concert. Hell, Axl won't even allow his band to be streamed on the internet in shit quality.
FF come on stage ON TIME. This isn't 1992 anymore, people don't really care enough about GNR to wait hours for them to come on. That's why most of the arenas in the US are half-filled and 2/3s empty by 2:30 am when the show is over.
They play a full set every night and don't get pissy about the audience. When I saw the Foos on Monday, Dave asked the crowd to cheer if it was their first FF show and a good 3/4s of the sold-out arena erupted. Instead of being offended or pissed, he turned it into a joke and laughed about it.
Ticket prices were reasonable for such a high-profile act. Floor tix were $60 after fees. I paid $90 for GNR at the same venue in 06.
Lets see, a t-shirt at that concert was $25 while one at GNR was $35... I could go on and on but I just don't get how you can say Dave is a bigger ass than Axl. I love them both but Dave for sure wins me on the treatment of fans.
Ugh it just pisses me off when internet GNR fanboys seem they have to hate everything Dave Grohl just because of a stupid little rift between Axl and Nirvana 20 years ago. That's fine if you don't like FF music but to say Dave is a bigger jackass than Axl is probably the dumbest thing I've read on the internet and there is a lot of stupid shit on here.
First of all, I do not like the Foo Fighters....just don't like their music. Second of all, I just don't like Dave Grohl as a person. I think he is a complete smarmy smartass at all times. The video being evidence once again. To me, he is a smug, smartass jerk. Sorry, I don't like him.
Is he talented? Yes. Does he rawk? Yes. Is he a phenomenal drummer? Yes. Do I like Nirvana? Yes. Do the Foos treat their fans right? Yes.
Did my post have anything to do with the Gnr/Grohl/Nirvana thing from 20 years ago? NO.
see all that huff and puff for nothing.:D
I don't get how people would see Dave Grohl as a jerk. He treats his fans with respect and goes out of his way for his fans a lot. The guy has made fun of himself his entire career and never let everything get to his head and cause him to have a huge ego. He's grateful for having the opportunity to do what he does.
What other band has done a garage tour when they are this big, going to fans houses and playing entire sets for them?
What a fucking pompous jackass. 
#199 Re: The Garden » New views of U.S. after arms decision » 719 weeks ago
I gotta be honest, alot of people blame the decline of "fear" of the power of the U.S. military on Bush's botched wars. That's up for opinion, but I think alot of it has to do with the perception of what Obama will do as the commander of the military. In one breath, the world cried for "change" (like it meant more diplomacy I guess) for the election of Obama. Despite Obama continuing Bush's defense policies, there's still that perception there that he'll choke under the wire... I don't know, something that's just a gut feeling, but...
I think if someone like Rick Perry were in there. They'd shit themselves over the defense policies he'd adapt.
This isn't some Perry vs. Obama post, it's simply a dumb man's analysis.
I think the world tends to fear Texans alot more... just sayin'
I met a Texan on an airplane who said Rick Perry makes him ashamed to be a Texan.

I wasn't under the impression that you agreed with the ideology of the WBC. In that case, there's no point in talking to you.
