they just were heavier and added electronics.

thursday, they are not revolutionary or anything, they wrote very good songs. you can make the same case about refused.

DNAINTHEDNA 06.05.2008 12:23 PM

I've been making the same argument for years, to the point where I've stopped making it because no-one has successfully cared. Thanks, internet-person, for re-iterating what I think! I feel validated.

I'm downloading some Thursday now, because I've been meaning to for ages.

EDIT: and, on-topic, I really like the idea of what this chap is doing, but unfortunately he's musically and emotionally inarticulate, which is a shame.

you don't like them? good for you, doesn't mean everyone should hate them because you do.

my point of you being pretentious, you proved with this post:

we can trace thursday to millions of other bands, your favorite band too.

by the way, crass didn't dress like mods and had syncopated drumming under octave riffing.

awesome dude im glad

im pretty sure those dudes werent thinking of crass or john coltrane or the beach boys when they wrote full collapse but you FTW! Enjoy yr thursday records dude, still glad 20 somethings can write 14 year old high school freshman lyrics. When you see them live get stoked for the crying letter gig they do, it rules.

really dude? i mean really?

i liked thursday for like 6 months back in the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002. i just lost interest and then months later i saw a video of their live show and that sold me on how much they suck. they are still still better than almost every single band that copied them after they got big.

no ones making fun of anything, i have no problem saying if i think the music you like is shitty, and I hope people do the same for me. I believe most of what I listen to isnt shit, but thats just me

Music is art; it is not behooven of fidelity, truth or some sovereign reality. I'm far too late to be getting into Thursday, and until that link was posted I don't think I've heard a note. I'm going to give it a listen, because some people I know like it.

I'm not impressed by anyone laying into Herr Neurotic; he's got one of the most ridiculously broad tastes and doesn't seem capable of not listening to things (he's not the only one like that round here). He's fond of some stuff that I think is absolutely abysmal, but he also strikes me as being one of the most agenda-less listeners I've ever encountered. You'd do well to take a leaf from his book.

i'm not saying you are, but you do come off as snobby.

batreleaser 06.05.2008 02:31 PM

nation of ulysses was great, realllllly fucking great. no me gusta refused.

batreleaser 06.05.2008 02:35 PM

but yeah, i was a snob for a while. but then i found all my records from when i was like 12-13, like slipknot, deftones, etc.., and realized even that shit had some good sounds in there. now ill even go on my sistor's itunes to find whatever good pop is out there these days. theres good and bad shit from all different styles of music. ill listen to justin timberlake just as much as ill listen to whitehouse, depending on the mood. music rules. fuck arguing about preferences in pop culture, like ive said a million times, theres nothing i hate more than people taking personal offence to someone not liking a bad theyre into, or liking a bad theyre not into.

DNAINTHEDNA 06.05.2008 02:37 PM

nothing wrong with deftones, slipknot uh no thanks dude

thursday still sucks and if im snobby thats fine by me
