Captain Howdy Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Ok, I basically want to see what people here think of this. Musically I think its ok (although the main riff just seems to be a total Bon Jovi rip off), but lyrically and vocally its poor. Its pretty much the same feeling I had with Damn Dice, who the singer used to be a part of until last year. It may appeal to some here, so be interesting to see if its just me that thinks they need a better singer and better writing, or whether I am in the minority. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iy26xAsrRw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalmaniac777 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Well, it's got a nice hook, but yeah, that riff is borrowing pretty liberally from Bon Jovi. The vocals and lyrics wouldn't necessarily be a deal-breaker for me, but they're both a long way from wonderful. Still, after just one listen, that chorus is stuck in my head, so they did something right. Now they should do something else right and find a singer who can really sell the song and a lyricist who can pen words that wouldn't have sounded cheesy even in 1985.

Dead Planet Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Pretty generic stuff...not worth tracking down.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 haha, yeah I agree with what CH and MM already said. The music is good, the lyrics and particularly the singer...not so much. If it was huge vocals I could probably let the lyrics slide because aren't we all here because at one point we enjoyed a little cheese with our tunes? So if they find a vocalist and I'd check it out.

Captain Howdy Posted April 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Glad its not just me. I was begining to think my point of view was clouded somewhat as have seen the singer a few times at gigs in the crowd, and he acts like he is some kind of rock god. Screaming his head off in the queue trying to hit high notes (badly), then going round calling people boring because they dont join in with his shit.

SUICIDE Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Bobby still trying to sing. Those lyrics are quite cheesy but probably would sound better with a better singer. On the bright side, Richie Sambora is free and can sing this Bon Jovi song if they fire the singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Howdy Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Trying is a great way to describe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bobby Valentine Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Thanks for all your feedback and I welcome both negative and positive comments. I am doing a job I love and thankfully Guiltz N Pleasurez are receiving a lot of positive acclaim both here and state side. We are also appearing on a well known CD compilation and are right now negotiating certain deals. So it seems quite a lot of people dig what we are doing. We don't mind being likened to any 80's bands, as that's where we get our inspiration from. We've been compared to QUIET RIOT, RATT, CINDERELLA and POISON so it's really all good. Let the music do the talking. Anyone that wishes to check us out can do so here. www.guiltznpleasurez.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Howdy Posted September 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 So a complete change of image and trying to now pass themselves off as a metalcore band it seems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGx-YI7Hww Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
