Finished listening to this album, sounds a bit too samey and very similar to the previous two, however it works quite well.

 

The problem is the drums part sounded hollow and amateur, not sure why they don't improve this part, anyone feels like they been using drum loop or something like that ?

 

Anyway, most of these songs are enjoyable but getting generic and more generic I guess, found at least 3-4 killers, so probably 75-77% will justify it

Yeah mate, agree with a lot of that. I've been an an ambassador for this band as much as I can and have enjoyed all their releases. I like this one too, but totally agree with your comments on piss-weak drums, especially during choruses where higher vocal volumes seem to drain out the drums entirely. The mix is very poor, and these guys need more than ANYTHING to get a decent producer on board.

 

I'm sure they're a good band, but honestly, it just sounds amateur when you come in with the 4th album still sounding like this. There debut is actually still their finest hour, imo. The other thing I fear most is this happening soon;

 

"So, Geoff, I like your testicles, but what are your 3 most hated lyrical subject matters?"

"Thanks, man," I say. "Well, my 3 most hated lyrical subjects are:

1. Christian lyrics

2. Inspirational lyrics

3. Wild Rose lyrics"

 

Seriously, they're on their way to having their own category, because these lyrics are just so terrible, and I'm sure the same phrases appear on each album.

 

I like these guys and this is a nice disc. But they really need a good producer, and someone else to write the lyrics for the great musical tracks.

always hated their lyrcis..............waaaay too cheesy for me

 

Cheesy, I can handle. Terribly written, repetitive and completely with a singular subject... I am not so fond of.

Yeah I guess one solution to it all : handle it to Steve Newman !

Sure the production and lyrics will be greatly improved :)

 

The thing is, I could write better lyrics with my hands tied behind my back. My cat probably could too. I don't need perfection, but at least some kind of imagination and thought put into the lyrics would be nice. As long as they don't use Stan Bush, anyone would do. Maybe try their neighbour or something. Just someone who can write words.

 

But yeah, a Steve Newman production job would improve these guys tenfold.

Why didn't they all just sit on each other's laps? They could have saved on the seats and they'd still be sitting as close to each other as they are in the clip anyway.

 

It's amazing how good the lyrics sound when you strip it right back. Oh, whoops, sorry. My mistake. They are still awful. ;)

 

Haha, don't be harsh, guys. I do like these guys. Just wish they got someone else to write their lyrics.

    • Thankfully newer songs are at a minimum, but I really can't see fans voting for stuff from the new album even if they were the two best songs on that album
    • Final track listing revealed. Time to see if it is a genuine vote or the band/label putting in shit from the newer albums DISC 1 1 Livin' On A Prayer リヴィン・オン・ア・プレイヤー 2 It's My Life イッツ・マイ・ライフ 3 Born To Be My Baby ボーン・トゥ・ビー・マイ・ベイビー 4 These Days ジーズ・デイズ 5 In These Arms イン・ジーズ・アームズ 6 Always オールウェイズ 7 Have a Nice Day ハヴ・ア・ナイス・デイ 8 Runaway 夜明けのランナウェイ 9 You Give Love a Bad Name 禁じられた愛 10 I'll Be There for You アイル・ビー・ゼア・フォー・ユー 11 Keep The Faith キープ・ザ・フェイス 12 Bed Of Roses ベッド・オブ・ローゼズ 13 Bad Medicine バッド・メディシン 14 Wanted Dead or Alive ウォンテッド・デッド・オア・アライヴ 15 Blood on Blood ブラッド・オン・ブラッド 16 Legendary レジェンダリー DISC 2 1 Never Say Goodbye ネヴァー・セイ・グッドバイ 2 Someday I'll Be Saturday Night サムデイ・アイル・ビー・サタデイ・ナイト 3 She Don't Know Me シー・ドント・ノウ・ミー 4 Lay Your Hands On Me レイ・ユア・ハンズ・オン・ミー 5 Dry County ドライ・カウンティ 6 This Ain' t A Love Song ディス・エイント・ア・ラヴ・ソング 7 Wild Is the Wind ワイルド・イズ・ザ・ウィンド 8 Tokyo Road TOKYOロード 9 Everyday エヴリデイ 10 I Believe アイ・ビリーヴ 11 I'd Die for You アイド・ダイ・フォー・ユー 12 Living Proof リヴィング・プルーフ 13 Bounce バウンス 14 We Weren't Born To Follow ウィー・ワーント・ボーン・トゥ・フォロー 15 Something for the Pain サムシング・フォー・ザ・ペイン 16 One Wild Night ワン・ワイルド・ナイト DISC 3 1 Raise Your Hands レイズ・ユア・ハンズ 2 Living in Sin リヴィング・イン・シン 3 Thank You for Loving Me サンキュー 4 Last Man Standing ラスト・マン・スタンディング 5 Undivided アンディヴァイデッド 6 Lost Highway ロスト・ハイウェイ 7 Wild In The Streets ワイルド・イン・ザ・ストリーツ 8 Just Older ジャスト・オールダー 9 Because We Can ビコーズ・ウィー・キャン 10 This House Is Not For Sale ディス・ハウス・イズ・ノット・フォー・セール 11 Who Says You Can't Go Home フー・セズ・ユー・キャント・ゴー・ホーム 12 Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars キャプテン・クラッシュ&ザ・ビューティー・クイーン・フロム・マーズ 13 Only Lonely オンリー・ロンリー 14 I Am アイ・アム 15 Burning For Love バーニング・フォー・ラヴ 16 Hey God ヘイ・ゴッド 17 Stick To Your Guns スティック・トゥ・ユア・ガンズ 18 Any Other Day
    • New song 'Angelina (Talk To Me)'.    
    • New song 'No Angel'.    
    • As long as they stick with the stuff I enjoy I don't mind...ill enjoy what I enjoy and they can release stuff that others may enjoy...win win for them. As Captain H pointed out other labels have already done this...they don't wanna be pigeonholed as one genre I suppose.
    • I get the feeling that they wanna sign a lot of bands but they don't wanna be seen signing to the "hair metal" label, so this makes 100% sense. I saw on here recently a post from a few months back discussing how weird it was for hair metal/aor bands to be signed to Napalm Records, and I kinda get that as it is known as an extreme metal label, but it has branched out so much over the years, same as Spinefarm. There will always be those who view things black and white (fans and bands) when it comes to things like record labels, so save on confusion and create sister labels. I could imagine them shifting their heavier stuff to a new label as well down the line. I mean lets face it, the main label is named after a Journey album, so you can kinda see why some bands would avoid them.
    • Anything created to promote our music is good news and Skunk Anansie are quality. 
    • FRONTIERS EXPANSION, NEW LABEL IMPRINT AND MAJOR SIGNING NEWS! A special message from Serafino Perugino, President of Frontiers Label Group: Dear friends, I am thrilled to announce the creation of Frontiers Label Group, which will umbrella Frontiers Music Srl and further labels, the first of which is our new imprint FLG. This expansion allows us to diversify and strengthen our position in the rock and metal landscape, while continuing to uphold the values that have guided us since the beginning. While Frontiers Music Srl remains home to melodic rock, hard rock, and metal artists, FLG will be dedicated to pushing the boundaries of rock and alternative music. This bold step marks our continued evolution as a leader in the rock and metal genres, and it is with immense pride that we welcome rock icons Skunk Anansie to the FLG family as the first signing to our new imprint. The signing of Skunk Anansie is a meaningful moment in the history of Frontiers, an important landmark in our development as one of the leading international rock and metal labels. This is only the beginning! We are excited to bring more news and announcements in the coming months as we continue to grow and expand Frontiers Label Group, our imprints and our roster of incredible artists. Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this exciting new journey together! Long Live Rock n’ Roll!! Serafino
