Hurtsmile - Retrogrenade


Stefan

Recommended Posts

I guess that song is okay-ish, kind of. But why are they still together and recording? The debut was terrible and this is sadly just a project that needed to vanish quietly. That said, no ill feelings towards the guys and good luck to them. I hope this album is a lot better than the debut, though I'm not sure I'll listen to find out. This song does sound better than anything I recall off the debut, though.

To be honest, I didn't even listen to it. Most people trashed it so bad, I didn't bother.

If you liked Extreme's last album (I loved it) then you won't mind it at all.

Really? Then I should give it a try.

I say Extreme's last is much better than Hurtsmile

It is better for sure, but they don't sound that much different. I wish Extreme would quit fucking around and put out a new cd. Not to mention all their demo's from before they got signed are out there. I'd love to have a mastered version of those.

And how are we playing this? Are we acknowledging that Extreme's last album was the equivalent of dying via method of crushed testicles, or are we pretending it was okay? Because for me, it was terrible beyond horrors, and yes, Hurtsmile was even worse. Very ugly situation all round.

Their last studio album ranks in the top 2 or 3 for me. I actually only disliked maybe one track.

Yeah, don't mind me too much. I like Extreme's first two albums, though neither of them reside in my collection as I sold both of them. So even in their prime they didn't really do that much for me. Everything since, though, has been a f*cking nightmare for me. To suggest that 'III' might be the best post 'Porno' disc they ever recorded... wow.I just hope they don't use that as a compliment. ;)

Divided opinions. Personally thought both the debut Hurtsmile and last Extreme were pretty equal, so would look forward to either releasing new material in this case Hurtsmile wins. Kinda recognize the aquired taste clause but gets my vote.

 

Can't wait!

Of fuck, that is dreadful. I think I will, without hesitation, take Russ' word on this one and not even think about giving it ear time. Seriously, that is soooooo bad.

    • Haha, thanks mate. I'm pretty fond of that one too.  I think I've said it a few times in this thread, but I don't think AI is a threat to "real" music whatsoever. Sorry, I know I'm repeating myself, but I could see a world where it has a significant impact on dance music and music that is already, for lack of a better term, created artificially anyway.  And I am amazed by, and love what it can do with rock/metal music, but it's still got nothing on what a group of four or five like-minded individuals can come up with, or most notably, a song-writer with a great voice. Or even a good voice.  I have some deeper cuts in my newer material and I am happy enough with the results but it still sounds like AI emotive, absolutely no comparison at all to a real dude pouring his heart out with his own delivery and melodic structure, straight from a songwriter's brain. And as cool as the music is, you listen to a heap of AI and then you put on just one or two top-end favourite bands and you're all like, oh, yeah, AI definitely can't do that. All the intricacies like guitar and drum fills, vocal hooks and melodies... if anything AI music has given me more appreciation for great artists. On the flip-side, it makes me view poorer artists in a dimmer light, lol, but it makes me really appreciate the real craftsmen and women a lot more.  lol, speaking of rants.  Ah, I've had this pickle a few times before. I like the chorus better in V1, but the verses better in V2. Usually in this case the chorus (V1) would win out for me.  And hey, thanks for posting these, lol. I was playing them and looked to the side of my screen and noticed I had 50 credits!! Bonus. I wouldn't have checked otherwise. So I guess even if you run out, you still get the standard daily 50 credits that even free users get. Gotta admit, that's a bit of a relief as 14 more days of nothing was going to be tough. And at last 50 keeps me well limited too. I might not even get one keeper song with 50 credits the way I've been going recently.
