Popular Post Beerjeezus Posted December 6, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2016 13 hours ago, Jake69 said: Forever Now is not that good of a song. It sounds like 3 totally different songs sloppily stitched together with some very cringeworthy lyrics. I don't understand why they have to always have these extremely long multi part songs on every album since American Idiot. It was cool the first couple of times but now it feels forced. It's interesting you say so, I think FN flows much more smoothly than other long songs - it doesn't sound like three sloppily stitched songs to me at all. And I don't think the lyrics are cringy either. 1 hour ago, Jenn. said: I love Still Breathing but don't like the way Billie says "first" in the line "I'm like a soldier coming home for the first time." It's like, the tiniest thing to criticise in a song but I notice it every single time I always notice it too but I can't say it bugs me 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because "first" ends with a T, then then next word "time" starts with a T, so it sounds a bit weird. Doesn't bother me though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't bother me though I dunno, it could have been him trying to differentiate the words. It's more the 'r' in first though it sounds a little like 'foost' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, but it seems completely alright to me. Do you mean like the change of the tempo? Or just the feeling that it doesn't belong there? To me, the only part that I don't like is the guitar at the beginning, so I kinda understand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAME! This is the one thing that kills Forever Now for me. It's messy right in there. Just flailing guitars. I am really like, the only one who doesn't consider this song the crown jewel of RevRad. I like it just fine, but that shift, ugh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed it before and I almost like how it sounds...I find it amusing how he enunciates normally the whole time and then goes "forrrst" all of a sudden 3 hours ago, Jake69 said: The transition from I want a better way to die and I don't want to think about tomorrow is very awkward. True, that transition is rather clumsy - way to die doesn't have a proper ending, it just goes straight into idwttat. I suppose I attributed this to the fact that I like way to die better and feel kinda disappointed when it ends. However, the way one flows into another makes sense within the song's narrative. It's a shift in the point of view of the narrator. An interlude might separate these two into two different "stories". I agree it might have been better executed (it confused the hell out of me the first few times) but it makes sense as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeJennsitized Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I'm not feeling the lack of diversity in the music videos. Like, literally everyone is white. Granted, there may be reasons for it, but doesn't change the fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was another annoying thing about a song I thought of last night but I can't remember what it was or even the song 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australians are allergic to pronouncing R's unless they're at the beginning of words, so a hard R is a hard R regardless to my ears (and Americans bloody love their R's ). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post St. Jonny Posted December 16, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2016 Outlaws continues to grow on me with every listen. Found it to be the most boring on the entire album originally but the lyrics are great, love when it's gets to the I got no supervision line onwards, best part in the song right to the end. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chin for a Day Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I have an unpopular opinion. As much as I love Bang Bang, I think it is one of the weaker tracks on Rev Rad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bridge and ending are epic! Outlaws is among my favorite songs on revrad if not the absolute fave. I wish they'd play it live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
