not in the least, i have very little respect for the abandinhope matches, it sounds like they completely changed their sound to be like everyone else on epitaph, because they were the elephant in the room, and the fact that they were modern punk/alterna-fusion indie or whatever they are considered, i think they are rather emo now, and its really upsetting, but thats just me
I think they are amazing. E Von Dahl is better-than-average high-school garage music, which is fine and fun to sing loud in the car, but the next two albums are the real music. If you only like Sum 41 and Blink-182, sure, maybe E Von Dahl will max you out, but for those of us like real music, ABIH and Decomposer are it.
Decomposer and ABIH is not real music. It sounds like them being weird. I like plenty of awesome "real music." Not saying they don't have awesome songs on those albums, but people need stop thinking that real music equals obscurity. You can be creative and be catchy at the same and that is exactly what yvonnne dahl was.
@efuggetta Real music!!!? What the hell makes their odd/wierd/just freaking stupid newer music real? It doesn't even sound like they're trying to be real musicians, they make fuckin Modest Mouse look normal with their shitty new style. They would have gotten really big if they would have just stayed on the path that got them known in the first place.
sum 41 and blink 182 both absolutely suck, and i really like decomposer too but i just cant get into a band in hope, it sounds too...pop-ish, compared to their older music influenced by rancid and the like not new found glory and the higher
let me rephrase: not so much emo they just kind of sound like whats hip right now which is music like Panic! i dont like powerpop, and i think thats kinda what they became
they still play this and other old songs and just as well or better.. their newer cds are just different.. do you really expect an artist to put the same cd out constantly.. itd be boring for them
omg i want to see them live !!! like now! they need ot come to my house and play in my back yard i would love that =] there stage performance just kickd my ass
You ate corn? lol. Random. :). The lead singer is Shawn Harris, and yeah, he's amazing. lol. They do great at every show, I was so happy they went to warped tour this year. Zebra head is good, I also saw them with zebra head, and I cant remember if it was at imusicast...
This has been flagged as spam show
both their new and their old was amazing. that's cuz they were just great no matter what they did. It was the heart behind it.
