@thehombreman *you. And it is no joke, you know fuck all about music if you think these Sheffield jokers are better than Pearl Jam. Name some Pearl Jam songs you have heard? PJ have better chemistry within the band, Eddie Vedder is a thousand times the songwriter that Turner will ever be, and as musicians, Pearl Jam are light years ahead.
To every who commented about Alex's hair on this 2 year old video of them playing, I'm happy to inform you that he has indeed cut his hair. And drastically at that. Please check out their Lollapalooza performance 2011 and tell me weather or not it has been cut.
Is it on purpose that the first song is kinda played rubbish, then the 2nd is incredible. Almost as if to shock the audience,, cause it made me admire 'crying lightening' more then I ever did
Hey everyone check us out, we are The Chain Reaction and we are a young alternative rock band from Drogheda, Ireland. Positive feedback is appreciated.
I like the music they've moved onto making... but I don't like that they've all changed there personal style and how they act etc. They were ace before, regardless of what music they were making at the time
@scargill8 i don't think that they changed on purpose. we change with time, without noticing it. for ex., two years ago i wouldn't even think of wearing some clothes that i do now. probably the same goes for them. and as for the attitude, well... they can do whatever they like. :-)
I have 2 things to say. 1) When I go back and listen to FWN I can definitely see them heading this direction, it's one of the most fascinating evolutions in rock n roll and it's fantastic to see them mature this way...although some of the die-hard fans would prefer they don't and keep singing about staying out. 2) I'm glad to see Alex letting the other guitarist do lead guitar, it's probably easier on him.
@dabirdmonkey He almost always plays the solos and lead riffs for Favorite Worst Nightmare and Whatever People say I am... He still plays lead most of the time.
@duersaasej did I insult u?? no need to be rude, people have a real problem, u r not even talking to them and they insult u, dont I have the right to say my opinion?
@cigsandalcohol89 fuck up then and dont watch their new stuff, they are just experimenting with humbug so they dont sound the same as always, they will probley sound differnt on the next album so fucking stop naging, i fucking love this album
@mrthedogggtyass ... it's kind of similar to a gibson marauder or whatever those things were called. it's definitely got the unmistakable ovation headstock though.
@Seersuckerblazers (im assuming you mean alex turners'); it's an ovation, they mostly make electric/acoustics but they do make like, one solid body electric guitar every few years. you'd probably recognise their acoustics when you saw them. their electrics are mostly ugly as shiesen, check out the ovation breadwinner (i think its a 60s creation). i think that model is called the viper or something similar.
@nininicorj Well they firmly disagree, as do I. They declare Ashton an official fifth member. And the guy is cool as shit--and yes, I do know from personal experiences with him.
The music is amazing and the long hairs cool man, a new image, which i thinks better than looking like school boys and churning out replicas of past hits.
Just been to see them, they rocked the house down, proper little stars and alex you are a legend, they are electric live, who gives a shit about his hair, the guy writes amazing lyrics and is super talented.....
@wolly260 They were just a bunch of kids who got instruments for crimbo and a year later released "bet you look good on the dancefloor" thats what was so appealing in a time of Pop Dros Idol. They have aged well as a band though.
Girls are just plain stupid. They care about the hair, they dont even listen to music. Why man love music and girls just stay with superficial things like the hair of the lead singer?
