Anticipated albums..(Who’s ready to step up?)

#

Started by greenmachine in General Therapy? Topics

Has anyone else been disappointed lately? In my opinion, a lot of the bands
that were stepping up to the plate, hitting home runs and blowing away the
competition a decade ago are now becoming the ones getting outshined by
today’s up-and-comers. Not that this is anything new, but does it have to
happen to so quickly to so many? So far, I’ve heard the latest from several
of my old favorites that I found to be uninspired letdowns. Does anyone
else agree with me? On a more positive note, has anyone heard any new
releases from your old favorite bands that were everything you hoped they’d
be? Who has a new release coming out that you have high expectations for?
Bring it…

Well, let’s just say that New Order and Frank Black positively surprised me. I never thought either of them would make a truly great album and the last Frank Black one is one of his best ever.

I agree completely. I got the latest from Depeche Mode, who are like one of
my all time favorites and there wasn’t one song on there that blew me away
like anything on Violator did. Not even the single was that memorable. I
absolutely love Travis’s new one, though. I think it’s even better than
their last one. I sing ‘Sing’ in my head all the time. I am really looking
forward to The Verve Pipe’s new CD coming out. I’ve always liked what they’
ve done and I feel pretty confident that the new one going to be worth the
wait.

Hey, I didn’t know The Verve Pipe have a new one coming out! Sweet! That
should be good. Yeah, I’ve have a few letdowns to add to this list. John
Popper’s last one, for instance. It sounds like he has spent more time
losing weight than writing good songs these days. Stone Temple Pilots:
great new look… shitty new flavor. Radiohead, on the other hand, is one
of the better new acquisitions. Personally, I prefer ‘The Bends’ album to
‘Amnesiac,’ but at least they still haven’t sold out.

I think Dave Matthews Band’s latest CD could have been better. With Glenn
Ballard producing it, it should have had at least a few great tracks on
it…
but if ‘I did it ~ guilty as charged’ is the best they could do for a
single, then perhaps they should go back to the teepee and take a few more
hits off the peace-pipe before attempting to put out another one. How do we
know that The Verve Pipe has a new one out? I love that song ‘Freshman.’
Does anyone know when it’s coming out, or what the CD will be titled?

To answer your question, comodusmaximus, The Verve Pipe’s new CD will be titled
‘Underneath’ and is supposed to be out on September 25. I just went to
http://www.thevervepipe.com for that info. There’s even a sample of the new single
on there… so far, what I’ve heard sounds great, which is another reason
why
I feel pretty confident that it’s going to be a great CD. I also forgot to
mention that I think Limp Bizkit’s last one sucked.

Well, Weezer’s green album was kinda dissapointing. It rocks allright, and sounds fat but every song is built from the same formula.
Cheers.
