bands that were good then got worse then were average for a bit before a slow decline - Page 2

If I weren't bored enough to actually think about the thread title in a serious way (after chuckling at its true intent), I would not be here at all.

Coldplay - I loved the first album, then its all gone downhill after that. And the latest album?

I support you Spirit. I never found Coldplay to be as terrible as people say. It's not like they're geniuses or whatever. But they have well, not so bad singles, at least. They're not horrible terrible awful shit like Muse.
But again, sure not something I would listen to every day...

Should I say "horrible prog based music surrounded by a throat-cutted pig voice" instead?

I agree. Particularly the first CD. Recently they've been getting worse, but their first CD was solid. The second one wasn't as good, but it was passable.

HECKLER SPRAY · 08.13.2008, 06:20 PM

Yeah, much better. Perfect. Thanks.
EDIT : Some swear words like Muse, Placebo, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand... Have to be banned from this board.

SYRFox · 08.13.2008, 06:30 PM

Franz Ferdinand are not so bad either. They certainly did not deserve the huge hype though. They were actually one of the first bands to get me into "indie rock", which lead me to more interesting things, so I bet I'm not really objective with them and they're shit actually. But I still got their albums and I'm not ashamed of it.

Now Bloc Party is really bad. They must have like one decent song and that's all. And they got even worse with their second album, and even worse with their single Flux. Blah.

acousticrock87 · 08.13.2008, 06:33 PM

I have to strongly disagree about Placebo.

That word might come in handy. You should specify, "In the context of the band, may that word never be uttered". Then I would agree wholeheartedly.

I have hardly any opinion about Franz. I did get their first CD, but I only listened to it like once and never even bothered putting it on iTunes. They're not horrible but they're incredibly boring, I think.

HECKLER SPRAY · 08.13.2008, 06:45 PM

Obviously, I was kiddin'.
Those bands just bore to death.

acousticrock87 · 08.13.2008, 06:48 PM

Actually, I recently met a very intelligent girl with very good taste in music and stuff and I was talking to her about random things, and it came up that she liked Franz Ferdinand. Then I had to stop and process it, and wonder if perhaps I had judged her wrong.

I suppose I dislike them afterall.

GrungeMonkey · 08.14.2008, 10:21 AM

I liked franz ferdinand's first record. Some cool riffs, smart lyrics, danceable... Not amazing, but good.

atsonicpark · 08.14.2008, 10:24 AM

Placebo?!?!

Yuck.

SuperCreep · 08.14.2008, 11:05 AM

Dinosaur Jr. if their next album sucks.

PAULYBEE2656 · 10.15.2008, 02:48 PM
