Good to hear you enjoy the comments.
I personnaly enjoy them more than IT’s music.
Jimbo…wasn’t even talking to you in these posts, you weren’t the one who said all pop music sucks. Yes, there can be shitty forms in all music…and yes, someone can like the fact that Roddy formed a pop group but then think that the music ended up sucking. I think they pulled it off pretty well and am glad this site let’s me know about what they’re up to. I get that you don’t get what I’m talking about, you can stop reminding me with your irrelevant posts. I’m not offended and obviously don’t mind being offensive (I’ll keep throwing “moron” out there if you need more proof)…so keep having the political correctness and freedom of speech arguments with yourself since you brought it up. Are you working on those topics for your 6th grade Civics report or something? I’ve enjoyed the comments though!
Note that Imperial Teen doesn’t suck because it’s pop. It sucks, because of what it is actually.
(if you feel offended, please replace “it sucks” by “Jimbo doesn’t like” and life will be better)
I think Jimbo’s comments are irrelevant to my point, only Integra seems to get it. Music is music. Saying some of it sucks and some of it doesn’t, well that only says something about the person saying that it sucks, it says nothing about the music. Just tying to understand…it sounds like if some people admit that some pop music is good their balls will shrink or something. So I guess FNM rocks because it is 100% free of pop music…so I guess Sonny boos when they start playing Bee Gees or Commodores tunes, or when anything they do sounds somewhat melodic. Trevor never does any pop either. And there’s absolutely no POP on California, cuz if there were, it would suck. It’s not “political correctness” or hurt feelings, it’s just thinking a little outside of your limited schema of the world of music. A good example is when I was a kid and this band that released this album I LOVED called IY then released this album called TRT with this god-awful whiny, nasally singer…that sucked b/c I was 12 and an idiot. But then I admitted the playing was solid and the singer really had some power and range and I grew up a little. Then AD came out and I was shocked to not have a TRT part 2…so that sucked for 1 1/2 listens, until it became the best thing I had ever heard, etc. The point being…looking at music in that way I feel is something you’re supposed to grow out of at some point. Oh, I never considered that maybe some people on here are still 12? I’m probably not alone in being someone on here who was pulled out of the “only metal rules” world by FNM and their diversity.
@benrun : yeah, please call me a moron if you think so. Freedom of speech, that’s what we are talking about. Feel free to shout it loud in your street if you will, or to write it in capital letters by pissing in the snow.
I’m here because FNM rocks!… Oh no, sorry, I have to be politically correct… So I’m here because I like FNM. I mean, saying “they rock” would be insulting to people who dislike them, I guess.It’s so important not to hurt other people’s feelings!
@Alksyntrs : tout est dit 🙂
In french I would say : Imperial Teen, je vois pas l’intérêt.
Not interesting to me…
I love freedom of speech, it lets me say that you are a moron when it comes to music…I’m just surprised to find you on this forum.
We’ve set up a test forum finally. Fire away
@Homefuck: the comments section of this website are actually the closest thing to an active FNM forum I found so far …
Hey! Totally Offtopic-question: do anyone know if there’s à FNM-forum with activity somewhere? The “official” forum is kind of dead…
Fuck that politically correctness. If someone don’t like something, let him say “it sucks”. We all understand what it means.
When someone says “it’s great”, no one will tell hime “Don’t say ‘it’s great’, say ‘I love it'”.
Also, being a FNM fan does not mean you have to love all the related stuff…
So yeah, Imperial Teen actually sucks. Good for people who like it, enjoy the shows, but let people who don’t like that pop crap say so. Freedom of speach, for god’s sake.
none of it “sucks”. its good music. you either like it or you dont.
I have never seen this before…
I’ve never gotten people who are Faith No More fans, but then don’t think of music on it’s own terms. I don’t get that, so it must “suck”. Imperial Teen makes pop music…they are very good at doing that. I understand maybe saying that you don’t like something, but saying “sucks” should be left for when a band tries to do something with their music and fails at it. Like if Imperial Teen tried to make a record that sounded like an Ozzy record, that would probably suck. I don’t like looking at paintings, but I can tell when someone has a talent for painting.
Eh, how ’bout some Fantomas dates instead? oh, Mike is doing other things? Shiiit. Well, is Mr. Trevor Dunn doing anything in the states? Neither, huh? What about Trey? no? oh well. Any of them playing any shows with Zorn? Rats…
Hey wait a minute…I live in the bay area, so why shouldn’t I go see Roddy? Nah, he might be a genius with FNM, but he’s the only member who’s music sucks outside FNM. Ha, no offense. Puffy’s work too though; Ozzy sucked outside Sabbath… not really, but it’s not as good even if Puffy played in some of the albums.
Damn it, Patton! Tour with Tomahawk at least! You rather do shows with the hip hoppity pop instead? Come on, Mike!
Goooooosh!!! San Franciscans are lucky buggers!!! Hope that Roddy & Co won’t forget to tour in Europe, I really want to see them in live once 😉
I just saw Anamanaguchi for $16 in DC….felt like I was a kid again…great show at a super bargain….
As for Imperial Teen, I wave to them subtly from the East Coast….Helllooooo…..cccoooommmmeeee ooovvvveeerrr heeeeerrrreeeee…
$16 a ticket…I am moving to SF! I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again-It’s where all the cool kids hang. Dang! Whomever gets to go, have fun and send the Teen my love.
Roddy, Roddy, dear Roddy, how cruel that this show should hath fallen less than a year from my twenty-first. They say Christmas comes early, but this year, it does not come at all 🙁
