Older Stuff vs Newer Stuff (debut album, album, bands, Hang)

Blink 182 is a different case. Their old stuff is just not good. Go and buy Cheshire Cat or something if you dont believe me. Awful stuff... Heh, but funny.

Metallica's older stuff is way better than their more recent music, but this is not the same for all bands.
Music of the 70s and 80s was a lot better in general than music today and there were loads more good bands unlike the **** which seems to dominate the music industry today.

^ Thats just your opinion... If you like those older bands rather than the current offerings, thats fine. However, that doesn't give you the right to criticize today's bands. Or to call them ****...

i love Alkaline Trio and have for like 2 years or more.. and well my favorite albums by them are Goddamnit - 1998 and Maybe I'll Catch fire - 2000.. ST - Alkaline Trio -2000 , From here to Infirmary - 2001 after that there albums are still good.. like there not half bad.. but they kind of got so poppy.. i mean they alwasy had that sound anyways but still they've gone pop.. mind now i still LOVE them and have all of there albums.. i think...but ya i've noticed it..

and with judas priest to.. only one thing.. the lyrics are the same as they were when the band first started... i don't think there lyrics style will ever change..

I'm such a cool indie kid that I know that everything a band does is better older than new. Everything new they do is selling out. They forgot to tell bands they had expirary dates too, go back to deleware you bastards.

Depends on the band.
Finchs newer stuff is better then their older stuff.
BTBAM's older stuff is better then the new.

i agree with that finch thing you said.. but i don't at the same time.. i have all of there albums.. which is only three.. but ya.. Say Hello To Sunshine is a amazing album but my favorite is What It Is To Burn i think that album is the ****.. so yea i agree with that but i don't.. we'll see. i want another new album out by them now.. even tho Say Hello To Sunshine only just came out a few months ago.. haha.. hmmm

What It Is To Burn is a good album, in terms of talent, and diversity it isn't better. Nates vocal work is a million times better on say hello to sunshine as his lyrics, and instrumentally its not just typical pop punk it incorporates hardcore influences that are heard way more clearly. Say Hello To Sunshine is a much better album and EPs are don't really count as an actual album.

agreed completely now!! you said it well..

Elton John hasn't changed.. his music has always been the same.. always.. hmm

Bonjovi.. they completely changed.. but we all new that the hair metal rock band (please so hurt me for calling them a hair metal rock band) went to hardcore pop music that only gets played on the radio.. other then that have they even sold a record sense Crossroads?

ill have to agree, say hello to sunshine is a much better album. *ashamed* you pretty much said everything i was going to say.

older vs. newer does pretty much depend on the band. but in a lot of cases older stuff is much better. a lot of the time its because a band becomes more influenced by the mainstream as they grow more popular, and usually the mainstream means suckage. although in some cases, a bands debut album is decent and people like it, but as they get popular, they become better musicians, their influences change, and their music gets better. overall though, as its been said, it all depends on the band.
