7.5/10

Simplistic sounding energetic rock music can be good sometimes. I probably wouldn't listen to this in big doses, though. Sounds just a tad bit too generic to me. I could be wrong completely.

I'd say Failure is anything but generic, you'd be surprised how many bands they've influenced; Weezer, as mentioned before. It's a bit too easy to call older bands like Failure generic, because I think a lot of us relate how they sound to how current bands do, who have a similar sound to their music. I challenge you to go listen to all three of the albums Failure currently have, starting with their first album Comfort, then Magnified, and finally Fantastic Planet, which is a stellar album. Failure and generic don't go together.

As for your song you posted. To me, they sounded similar to Failure; similar tones. I thought it wasn't too shabby of a song, could have been better. 5.8/10

It's Nick Cave. It's very good. There's something about this guy's voice that really grips me when I'm listening to it, but I rarely go out of my way to put one of his albums on - which is strange. Anyway, yeah, it's a very good song. 7.5/10

Obviously a very catchy beat, but there's not a whole lot more there to me. I was hoping to hear more interesting changes/effects added to the beat (similar to the drop around 20 seconds) and just more of a progression in the song in general. Just not a whole lot going on here. 4/10

For sure one of the highlights of that album, which was one of the best albums of last year. I love how they manage to where their influences on their sleeves without sounding boring or tired.

sorry....i just don't get the whole autotone thing.....it actually drives me nuts :(

Pretty awesome funky business. Would fit perfectly onto the Mutant Disco compilation (check it out), alongside the likes of Lizzy Mercier Descloux and James White. 8.5/10

Sounds like typical experiemntal hipster noise. I almost got a headache listening to it. Sorry. 3/10

Glad you revived this thread.

I liked the drums and the song itself wasn't bad but it sounded a little generic. It's a song i would enjoy if i saw it on a movie scene or if it had a cool music video but it's not a song i would listen to by choice.

2/5 very 80's sounds like the cure song was blah tho didn't like the voxs only thing good was the bass in the middle that was some nice licks
