Platypus2000 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I can see why people don't initially like RevRad BUT I just listened to it straight after Bang Bang and it seems like a natural progression, could become one of my favourite songs once I've heard it in the context of the entire album!

It's no Warning/American Idiot/21st Century Breakdown tho. Sounds more like a decent deep cut than an actual single. Go to bed son Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mention anyone else, I was only speaking for me. It's just referring to people on this thread as "they" smacks a bit of "I am better than these people so won't even address them directly". 1 hour ago, dolce_amore93 said: "They" being fans in general. I've been in many fandoms over the years, and no one is nearly as critical of an artist or show or film as its biggest fans are. Fans are nitpicky. Not a good or bad thing, but definitely the truth no matter what or who you're talking about lol. I'm totally aware of this. I nitpick about my favourite TV show, and yes, sometimes GD. It's because people want their faves to be the best they know/think they can be. Whether they're right or not is a different matter, but it's kinda dumb to bitch about them. They feel what they feel I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleIron1039 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I like some parts of it much more than Bang Bang, and I loved the latter. However, it reminds me of Iron Maiden's "Montségur" in that I think that the chorus kinda doesn't seem to fit too well, and to me, that brings down the quality a bit of an otherwise excellent track, like it did with "Montségur". I like the pinch harmonic in the solo, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDFan96 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 The intro is sick!! I've only heard it two times, but love it so far. Bang Bang is a bit better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that hard. I don't get why you are complaining. AT least I am trying to speak up for a band I and many enjoy. If that makes me annoying GREAT I am happy to be this way. 5 minutes ago, Dakke said: Warning is a good song, but not a good single.

At the very least Warning was something new and different from the band, and that alone makes it more memorable to me than this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a hypothesis though, nothing concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platypus2000 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Warning is an absolutely awful song, a title track is meant to symbolise the entire character of an album. It's not meant to be a 3 minute, repetitive drone. (On the subjects of title tracks, excuse the tangent.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do find it kind of funny how suddenly so many people seem adverse to that song after pretty much everyone here was criticizing that "worst songs made by great bands" list from a couple of months ago.
