Try Parachutes, Yellow is a great song.
They're also a band people love to hate, which is why I made the thread. :contract:
:yes:
Amen brother.
:lol:
Eh, we can all agree on the Nickelback thing, at least.
What I wanna know is how in the hell did they get picked up by Century Media's A&R? Somebody must have been unsupervised on his last day on the job or something.
Doesn't take much effort to think - ugh that shit is awful. Even the lazy can manage that. :)
See there are three good reasons to nuke Canada.
Len and Our Lady peace need to be punched in the nuts also. Superman's dead? Awful song. Ruined the 90's for me.
This.
:bleeding: Don't forget your black concert tee and mullet, man. :bleeding:
That implies they were ever good. :x
No shit. Good compared to what? Styx? BTO? Seeping anal wounds?
But you also gave us Crash Test Dummies and Shania. :cool:
Only to cloth-eared people yeah.
Their most recent one is one of their best and has had great critical reviews.
They're the worst of the white trash redneck rock of the '70s, and are rivaled only by those assfucks Skynard. Unfortunately, they just haven't had the good sense to collectively overdose or die in a plane crash.
Slipknot? Really? :lol:
I haven't listened to angry whiteboy music since Testament opened for Slayer in '90. And you already know how I feel about wiggers like Eminem. You must be using the metric system for your attack vectoring, because you're missing the mark.
Now granted, you've been more than your usual douchebaggy self lately because I call you out on your self-loathing foreign ass, but don't be getting all homeland defensive over redneck rock like Rush simply because they're Canuckistanian.

As for Rush, they were a great band that's done a lot of music that I've liked. I don't really think of them as redneck rock. They've been a lot of things over the years.

Coldplay is one of those bands whose songs are always better when performed by somebody else. Example: Nickle Creek's cover of Yellow, Willie Nelson's cover of The Scientist. It's probably because they're average musicians.
