If Avril had been around to write songs for The Runaways, they might've been one of the most perfect bands ever. No irony whatsoever. That's how good she is.

Glice, if you're reading this, I TOTALLY understand what you were getting at about the production of Under My Skin now.

Glice 02.25.2011 04:16 PM

You say that as if there's a possibility I'm dead.

It's AMAZING, no?

Dr. Eugene Felikson 03.04.2011 08:41 PM

Very much so, Glice.

Avril's track by track commentary on the new album...

I'm very pleased to hear that none of the other songs sound anything like the single. Way to go Avril!

I can't even imagine the single isn't as shit as the rest, unless you're trying to tell us it's the opposite.

You're just mad because she accomplished your childhood dream of becoming a world renowned, counter culture icon, and you're posting on a forum.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 03.10.2011 05:01 PM

She's fucking gorgeous. Great live performance of Push too. Probably the new single.

Here's What the Hell from the same set...

Who's the drummer on the album tracks? Doesn't sound like Freese. It'd be a shame to lose him.

And before you start, I haven't got any money for albums at the moment and I don't really 'do' downloads of in-print stuff.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 03.25.2011 05:10 AM

The drums were done by Keith Armstrong, and Shellback? I guess this Shellback guy (band?) did a lot of the instrumentation on the album. Sounds good enough to me, though.

The only credit John Freese has is writing the lyrics for Not Enough.

Ah! What the Hell is Max Martin. That makes sense. He's pretty on fire at the moment after a few years of terror (thanks for the worst Britney singles, Max. And also thanks for the best ones). Shellback is his right-hand man/ lapdog - though I think he was mostly responsible for the great songs on Ke$ha's Animal.

That's an odd personnel list though. I'm not impressed to see Whibley still floating about. I hold him solely responsible for the shit bits in this. Clearly an Avril chorus though.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 03.25.2011 04:23 PM

Your knowledge of modern pop producers astounds me.

floatingslowly 03.25.2011 05:01 PM

my goth playlist has 818 songs, so I'm afraid that I don't have time to bother with anything non-vampiric.

floatingslowly 03.25.2011 05:03 PM

oh yeah, avril over 18 yet? if not, well there's the reason glice cares. if so, poAstnoodz (or stfugtfo).

Dr. Eugene Felikson 03.29.2011 03:11 PM

I've been listening to this album non-stop, for the most part, all month. If you've ever considered yourself an Avril fan, you need to get this. End of story.

With that being said, my least favorite track, as expected, is the single, What the Hell. It is to Goodbye Lullaby, as Sk8r Boi was to Let Go. However, the acoustic version rules! All in all, Goodbye Lullaby is an amazing album for any and all Avril fans.

Album of the yr.

... did I mention she covers Joan Jett at the end?

EVOLghost 03.29.2011 03:25 PM

Dood.....seriously......wtf.
