critique the song above

[His Name Is Frank]

8/10

I almost posted a DOTN song the last time. You can't go wrong with Travis Meeks. He is one of the most underrated singers still alive.

A Perfect Circle - The Package

 

[shotgunsinthehall]

Maynard is such a great vocalist and with A Perfect Circle it's much easier to see his talent soar. Adversely, with Tool, it's difficult to fully grasp his voice through the heavy sounds. Anything he touches is gold(Midas, Maynard...Coincidence?). Although, this isn't my favorite APC tune, it is still easy to listen to and pleasant to hear.

7/10

Warning to Christians...Don't click.(You've been warned.)

8/10
warning to christians? lol that was like begging for a christian womans click~
anywayz...
i love this tune. it's all spiritually twisted and kinky tabooey-BeeDeeEssEmmy. it evokes an emotional response even if you dont know what he's talking about until you look up the lyrics. his voice and the music seem to be coming from way deep inside the soul.

little brother - altitudes

 

[His Name Is Frank]

5/10

The lyrics were alright, but overall it was a little weak. Jurassic-lite.

Hurt - Rapture
Crank it up to 10!

 

[Amebix]

8/10 vocalist sounds pretty bad until he puts some force into his voice, but a pretty good song.

Inepsy - Bombshell rock

4/10-Already stated my general dislike of punk. Not particularly bad, just heard it so many times before

Twilight Singers w/Mark Lanegan- Live with Me/Where did you Sleep Last Night?

 

[Amebix]

1/10 ugly fucking band members, lame subject matter and boring, so very fucking boring.

[Thanatos]

3/10 its boring dude. I'm sorry but punk isn't what i would call good music. Its just repetitive and everything is rehashed. Its not even emotional.

Saul Williams- The Pledge of Resistance

[panic_the_digital]

0/10- I'm pretty sure this is a music critique thread. Not saying it is necessarily bad, just not music.

BTW, I saw him in concert at Lollapalooza and was disappointed in most of what I heard.

However, I must agree with you on the Amebix tunes.

Sorry, it's a 2 part

The Mars Volta-Goliath

 

[Thanatos]

0/10- I'm pretty sure this is a music critique thread. Not saying it is necessarily bad, just not music.

well i tried to find a video that actually had the music to go along with the spoken word. it just didn't work out

7/10 i love TMV they are amazing. The Bedlam in Goliath is their weakest cd by far but they've still got it going on.

[StarOceanHouse]

10/10...that is probably Aceyalones best track. The lyrics are so off the hook.


Radiohead - Optimistic

http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=UJkeVkYq8Es

 

[shotgunsinthehall]

5/10
Radiohead has always been one of those obscure bands that made it too far into the limelight and kinda lost some of their pizazz. If I had never heard of Radiohead before, I'd love it, but the way it stands, I just like it. I will say the lyrics are definitely uplifting, the music is not exactly pleasant though not near annoying, but the composition baffles me. The chorus is not defined, the verses have no real stricture...Overall this left me confused.

Enigma - T.N.T. For The Brain

 

[OrneTTe]

2/10
The beat was kind of ok at first but it never really changed and everything else about the song was terrible. The video was cracking me up though

Talking Heads- Burning Down The House
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozc70JPGRMQ

 

[Pander Bear]

^^
is your nick an Ornette Coleman reference? If so: props.

Talking Heads are my favorite band, but burning down the house is nowhere near the top of my list. Its well put together, its catchy, but after more than 20 years of listens, it reveals itself to be kinda empty, lyrically speaking. I still love the percussion and the bass line, though. 7/10

Michael McDonald - I keep Forgetting

 

[OrneTTe]

Yea, it is. I love Ornette Coleman. I take a lot of my playing style from him. I love free jazz. Yea Burning Down The House is not my favorite TH song either but I figured it would be most approachable for someone who doesn't listen to them plus that performance rocks as does the entire Stop Making Sense movie.

 

[His Name Is Frank]

7/10 ^ Panda Bear

I'm not really a Michael McDonald dan, but there's no denying the man can sing. This is one of his better songs.

Shinedown - Call Me

 

[shotgunsinthehall]

8/10 ...It only lost points because I was waiting for some more energy that never came. The lyrics were well versed, well sung, well harmonized, and the composition was great as well...I never knew Shinedown could make music like this, it's so 'out of their shell'...Good stuff, thanks!

Keane - Bad Dream

 

[dyslecstasy]

5/10 it's not a terrible song but the lyrics are kind of weak and the beat is pretty boring as well. he has a good voice though.

Amplive - Video Tapez (Feat Del The Funky Homosapien)

 

[continuousbeing2]

6/10

I really dug del, as per usual, but i really didnt like the music all that much. it was sort of, i dont know, boring to me. great verses, mediocre beat.

Rilo Kiley-More Adventurous

 

[sixpartseven]

8/10. Not the best Rilo Kiley song Ive ever heard, but still pretty great. I think her voice is beautiful too.


Marilyn Manson - If I Was Your Vampire
