  1. I bought the first Pluto album four days ago at a pawn shop for a loonie. I'm considering selling it too.
  2. The Mars Volta - Frances The Mute ...and we're done.
  3. Weezer - The Christmas Song Everclear - that secret track off So Much For The Afterglow
  4. Sort of an Apparition.
  5. Flashdance II was the radio single when Loser Anthems was released.
  6. Apparitions. Protest.
  7. ah! no! it's per se, and you didn't use it in the right context! sorry. english major in me talking. resume. Hmm but I didn't intend it to be an adverb.
  8. Fated (shouldn't have made it this far--I, The Throw Away, persay, is the better song) Weapon Tripoli Apparitions Sort Of A Protest Song
  9. Well musicians write music as a personal reflection into their lives. Specificity can only make things brighter & more powerful in the ink of the writer.
  10. Cool interview. Nice to see the keyboardist from Moist turning into a journalist haha. The entire thing is mostly Matt degrading the music scene but it deserved the read.
  11. Wow, a lot of hype here. I better not be dissappointed. Very good song. Better than Breath Of A Nation, that's for sure. Yes, I know it's a demo but the vocals don't seem very strong but the song as a whole sounded very interesting.
  12. Well the Generation Y-Kids would rather listen to an anorexic boy with dyed black hair scream his ass off into a mic.
  13. I would say yes. Every music fan generally knows who he is, especially with the MGB. They would be like "Matthew Good? Hello Time Bomb was pretty cool". But even with that, they wouldn't really know that much more since of the problem with Active Rock stations. Ask that questions five years ago and people would be able to name all of his singles off Underdogs/BM. But with Active Rock radio stations (examples in my area include Y108 Hamilton, HTZ-FM St. Catherines, and FM96 London), only the most accessible songs are played for the current demographic--not necessarily his most popular songs-- and the new wave of generation y-kids would be pretty clueless with the band as a whole. Also, I have never heard a Canadian in my life mix up Matthew Good with Dave Matthews. Ever. I knew someone who got the two mixed up. When Matt came to Windsor in 2001, there were a bunch of people who thought it was going to be Dave Matthews. It made be laugh. Well Windsor is practically Detroit.

  15. Friday morning surely came fast.
  16. How can you be allowed to say that it's Ryan's best songwriting when you stated that you haven't heard all of Bellaclava? I/O is a solid album, I'm not saying that. It's just missing serious, serious elements that made LL such a rocking AND artistic band in the past. Gone are the eerie songs like Hostess & Teen Fang, touching ballads like Wake Up To The Sun & Go Ride and rocking tracks like Shoot But Don't Miss. Also, Ryan Dahle wrote every song on the album; nothing with Kurt. Anyone who thinks I/O is LL's best album is someone who got into the band thanks to Matt Good. Hell, I think I was a AOE/LL fan before a MGB fan.
  17. I listened to all their albums today and I stand by my point. Bellaclava has a beautiful variety of songs while the only thing remotely different on In/Out was Alarm Bells; even Drug Induced sounds like the first five tracks.
  18. Perfect elevator music too.
  19. Try again. Even though Dan #2's answer gave me a good laugh.
  20. No way in hell. I/O was a little too basic for my tastes and it lacked all the obscure instruments from Bellaclava (ie: mellotron, acetone, pedal steel, optigan, chamberlain, organ, etc). And the drumming. Don't get me started on the drumming.
  21. Ghetto and AOB went Gold respectively as well. So calculate that all up.
  22. He sings a bit at the end together with the other parties.
