i hate when a band comes out with a new album and there is a song with lyrics so bad it ruins the band for me or if you just never paid attention to lyrics before, and when you find out what they are saying, everything is ruined example that made me think of this: on smashing pumpkins album 'machina' the song 'i of the mourning' when he said I peer thru curtains on empty streets Behind a wall of caller i.d. i was done i havent listened to them the same since |

System Of A Down Science "Science has failed our world" That line repeated over and over again on a song recorded with electric instruments, and playing on my laptop is just retarded. Getting your environmental message out while railing against the very delivery system of the message itself is System of a Dumb. |

bad lyrics are sometimes a good thing though. i mean, take MF Doom (granted, you have to like a bit of hip-hop for this example to apply). Almost every other line is basically a filler to go with the previous line. and what's up with words like breastisess? is that even a word? nonetheless, i love mf doom. and i love his lyrics. |

Doom is a rare exception though....his plays on words often are steeped in madness and genius at the same time. |

What do you expect?" classic. and i apologize to pickleloaf for turning his lyric thread into doom appreciation hour.... |

Doom Appreciation: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=26298 Back on topic: I'm a huge Beastie Boys fan, but the lyrics on To the 5 Boroughs album seemed forced/hollow to me. I generally like instrumentals, because I'm picky about lyrics, too. But, I think no song should have a "chorus" either. Nothing ruins a song for me like some dopey chorus repeated 50 times.... |

I just listened to their 1st album (Gish) for the first time in about 10 years. I really enjoyed it again, but that's about it for SP in my opinion. That Number Of The Beast cover (Spun soundtrack) is well done but I can't believe it's Billy Corgan singing on that. I know it's his band, Zwan or Djali Zwan, or whatever. I'm surprised that with the popularity of this cover, there is no definite post on the internets claiming who actually sings on the recording. I can't find any. |

I can't find any. yeah, it took me forever to find out that it was Djali Zwan, i just knew corgan had something to do with it. and it's only released on the Zwan single for Honesty. I don't really dig zwan, so i didn't want to buy the cd for just this one track, and there is no Spun Soundtrack release, at least not what i could find. so, i tried finding a place to download this, and that took forever. i wonder why this song is so shady? |
