    "WHEN I'M FEELING! dooownnn I don't wanna get up..."
    I've never really enjoyed a grunge album before in my life, so I'm surprised that I'm loving the fuck out of this thing. Great record!

      also surprised you didn't mention Creep by Radiohead when talking about Never Clean My Room, it sounds just like it haha

    got more 8's this year than the number of times i felt life is worth living

    • @11LuStar
      @11LuStar 7 лет назад +4

      The worst part is he gave this record a "strong 8 to a light 9" but only decided to show the 8

      Jestifer Chalice not really, but thanks for asking.
      have a great day everyone

    • @11LuStar
      @11LuStar 7 лет назад

      Jestifer Chalice Yeah I'm ok. Because it's not like he's given out at least 500 8's this year and he really could've chosen to show the other score that he said he felt. Cuz cmon, who wants to see a 9 when you could just count this as yet another 8??

    This album is brilliant! Clear 90s grunge influence, but done well enough so that they've retained a contemporary sound. Basically, they're channeling similar thoughts and feelings as bands like Nirvana did, but without sounding like a, "born in the wrong era Tumblr band"

      Not sure what the point behind that would be. It was a standard avenged sevenfold record. The fans loved it, critics hated and for the most part their sound hasn't changed.

    Fuck yes, this is one of the best solid rock albums of this year, I just guess that his would be perfect if they didn't start the album with the "screamo" style that This Routine is Hell used to pursued.

    So glad you've reviewed it. I was really interested in your opinion especially after seeing some negative reactions of the band's old fans. I mean 'Howl' was fantastic and the change of sound is drastic. But new album is good. It really grew on me and who knows, maybe after you analysis I can enjoy it even more. Thank you, Anthony. =)

  • @bigboi1741
    @bigboi1741 7 лет назад

    Anthony, please do a video covering youngster jiji. Hes an extremely interesting artist with a unique sound. He produces. sings and raps and his songs are quite emotional.
    His music is very experimental and I believe that you can use your platform to give him the recognition he deserves.

    @B5Sybok 7 лет назад

    Hello, could you do a review of the record American Band by Drive-by Truckers? I would like to hear your opinion on this particular record out of pure curiosity because I personaly love the record for it's message, vibrant guitars, great on point songwriting, etc... But I'am aware of the fact that it could be a very polarizing piece of art as well for exact points I have mentioned earlier so basicly just for the second opinoin of fellow music lover.

    Hey man. I'd like to hear what you would have to say about our music project AndroidSpace. Its completely accidental and created by two street artists. When we started to create the album we thought we were going to birth a hip hop record... that didn't happen. Instead our debut release "Beautiful Mistakes" was born. There is a whole back story to the album and maybe we will one day be able to explain it to the world, but for now its open to interpretation. Thank you and I look forward to hearing what you may have to say.
