Todd Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I don't like Matt's voice at all. Love the guitar, but the vocals force me to turn it off. Matt's not a bad singer, I just don't like the vocals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackBaboon Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I don't see the need in critiquing Matt's cover so much. I'm not saying the advice is wrong, but from what I can tell, he just puts the covers up so people can get a little enjoyment out of hearing a slightly different version of a song they like. He's not auditioning to be America's Next Top Rock Star or something. I just don't think we need to grade someone so hard when they're just trying to give us a little treat.

Sarcasm Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I thought I'd give Amy a shot: http://soundcloud.com/patar182/amy EDIT: I just realized Matt also posted his cover... I feel weird since there seems to be a heated debate about his.... You must be new here if you call that heated.

I feel weird since there seems to be a heated debate about his.... I feel obligated to hate on you, seeing that's what everyone else does. But no, I like it quite a bit! Love what you did with the guitar; making it sound spacey. Who cares if Matt uses pitch correction or not if u dont like his covers simply dont listen...

DTH Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 i dont know if its a good advice to dont say your opinion if you dislike something? i dont do it to diss people or something... just to clarify: matt your covers are good, your singing is just not the style i like. i would like it better without pitch correction though. but i can imagine people like cause its not bad at all. I thought I'd give Amy a shot: http://soundcloud.com/patar182/amy EDIT: I just realized Matt also posted his cover... I feel weird since there seems to be a heated debate about his.... ok just take it as an honest opinion: you can't sing. im mean singing for yourself is fun i know, i cant sing that good either and just do it while i play guitar for myself. but do you actually think your cover sounds good? i mean you probably miss every second note. i can not imagine somebody enjoys to hear it. but thats obviously ok: not everybody who likes to sing can be a good singer. but it as as it is. so im questioning myself why do you post it on here? you cant be thinking it sounds at least alright? this maybe seems mean, but i have a good intention when im saying this. just look at all those talentless people who are going to talent shows and are emberassing just because nobody ever told them they suck at singing.... your guitar playing is good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to counter your opinion..he isn't the best singer in the world, but at least he isn't tone deaf like some people I have heard before! I think he does a good job ^__^ I mean no one can sound like Billie, but I totally give you props for your cover I mean the guitar is super good for sure, and the vocals aren't as terrible as the quoted person above thinks..at least to me anyway. And at least he's brave enough to post a cover...I am way too afraid So for that you get a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's totally fine. I understand and am definitely not offended or mad in any way. I can respect that. This is the same as me not liking Kings of Leon due to their singer's voice.

You've been here since 09, you must have.. seen shit Haha, I've seen alot of things happen here. But I have bad ways of using words so.... heated must've been a bad one, haha. I feel obligated to hate on you, seeing that's what everyone else does. But no, I like it quite a bit! Love what you did with the guitar; making it sound spacey. Haha, thanks Matt. I really love the covers you do. How do you record your stuff ? Thanks for the input, I've honestly just started singing for a few months. I do need to improve but hey, my cover isn't that great. But I record this to show people to ask for inputs so I can improve and learn from tips, such as yours. So posting it here is just a way for me to learn more, yknow ? I feel like I'm off topic, so yeah: I went to Hot Topic today and asked the lady if there's a special edition of DOS and she said the boxes came in and she remembers seeing a box with the labeling DOS Deluxe on it... Could it be another box set with DOS (and maybe UNO) an a TRE cardboard filler with a sticker again ? o: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So posting it here is just a way for me to learn more, yknow ? Dude, you handled that criticism so well. The thing is though, that wasn't constructive criticism at all, it was just mean. Your cover wasn't bad at all, and your voice wasn't bad either. What I've learned about singing, is that like anything, practicing is what you gotta do. Telling someone they just can't sing is just plain wrong, we can all sing. It's just about working at it, and learning things about your voice. Now I'm not a terrific singer, but I think I can hold a tune decently because I've been doing it for so long, and I still have a long way to go. But yeah, props to you for that response. Handling criticism is a big part of putting your music out there as well, haha. I think I might have to cover a DOS song soon....maybe Baby Eyes. That would be tons of fun.

Like I said, I've just started to sing seriously, I used to bullshit it and sound like Tom Delonge during the reunion tour. Now I'm actually TRYING to find my voice, haha. It's super scary uploading a cover because the majority is going to hate it because it's not the original. Which bugs me because they can just listen to the original instead of clicking the play button... Thanks so much, haha. I get tons of those people just hating and stuff at my school and when I used to be in a band (search up Attic Avenue) so I've learned how to take it, haha, and you should seriously cover a song off of DOS. I swear it's so fun playing/singing the songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And granted, constructive criticism is good and all, but some people are just haters And most of the time the people criticizing wouldn't even imagine being brave enough to post their own covers T__T But keep up the good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akshat Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Dos Billboard performance: Why it can do well : 1.The content is amazing. 2.Uno could have served as a build up to dos,out of the people who bought uno, I am sure more than 80% will buy dos 3.Green day fans fucking rule Why it wont do well : 1.No promotion-If people wont know that there is a GD album coming, who will buy it? 2.Single:I dont think stray heart is even on itunes now.It is the most isolated Green Day single ever 3.Other artists: Soundgarden,Christina Aliguera,1D and 50 cent release new albums on nov 13.It's not that these artists are better than Green Day.They all are far behind GD when it comes to awesomeness.But they PROMOTED THEIR ALBUM. 4.Taylor Swift:I don't think Red, which sold 1.4Million copies first week, is coming down till a month.Babel by mumford and sons*cough* was on #1 for 4 weeks.So #1 spot is almost out of question. If dos makes it even to top 6, I think it will be a big achievment, for an album which did well without promotion.We all would be proud.But let's not be so exited.Just remember and keep it in your mind that Dos wont do so well like uno.But I have a good feeling for tre.It might even start at #1(only lil wayne and bruno mars release albums on dec 11) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTim Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Only competition GD has on tuesday is Christina and 1D... Soundgarden hasnt had an album since what 96?

Heisenberg Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I just can't get over how good Lazy Bones is. I knew that song was gonna be good when we heard the preview but wow, what a great tune. Maybe even my favorite song out of both albums combined.

Harry Potter. Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Yeah, Green Day might actually beat Aguilera. If we're super lucky. Or we might've if Warner would do something. There was a conversation about this a few pages back and the result was that nothing will stand in Tre's way. NOTHING. And by the way, I meant the album, not the person. Even though nothing would stand in the person Tre's way either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaHawk2009 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Unfortunately the screaming masses will flock to 1D, which I'm predicting will knock Taylor Swift off the top spot and down to second, with Aguilera in third. If we're extremely lucky, DOS might occupy the 4/5 slot, but I'm not convinced due to the supreme lack of promotion. Maybe here in the UK with those TV Spots it'll do better though....

StefanD Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I think for now my top 3 is: 1. Lazy Bones 2. Fuck Time 3. Wildone/Stop when the red lights flash (Yeah, I put two songs on number three because I like them both equally!) But it might change with time, except for Lazy Bones because I'm deeep in love with this song. might be one of my favorite Green Day songs EVER. I loveeee nightlife. And I can't wait to listen to it with a couple of drinks I'm sure it sounds even more better with the feeling of being a little drunk.. Just a little I got a little drunk the other night and listened to dos at a party...holy shit, perfect atmosphere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
