De- goddamn SCENDENTS!


Are these guys becoming one of my favorite bands? Looks like they might. They're literally (okay, figuratively) the only thing I've been listening to the past week. I just can't help diggin' them...

Is it because of the hooks?

Is it because of the energy?

Is it because of the lyrics every adolescent can relate to? The ones dealing with girls, parents, wanting to be a bear, and really, really liking food?

Pierce the Veil Week?

I was taking a look at the punk forum ealier today, when I saw this thread. It's about a band named Pierce the Veil, and according to the replies, they suck. I don't think I've ever heard anything by them, but I know that at least one of my friends likes them. Who has better taste in post-hardcore? Middle school girls, or WhateverDude?

I suggest that next week is Pierce the Veil Week. It's exactly like Justin Bieber Week and Nickelback Week, but with a not-as-popularly-derided band, Pierce the Veil, as the subject.


So... who's up?

I will try to join but I make no promises! Do you know which album you are listening to? I feel like I have heard a single or two from them but never bothered with a full album play through.

Isbjørn 07-11-2014 02:26 AM

I will try to do all three, in chronological order.

So... I gave Ramones' debut album a listen just now. I think it was boring.

2.5/5

Yup, Pierce the Veil Week.

After taking a look at that picture, I'm 100% convinced that this band is going to sound like crap. Too bad I'm going to hear all three of their albums, then.

Let's get started...

Album: A Flair for the Dramatic
Year: 2007
Chronological position: Debut album

I need to confess: after the first song, I thought «hmm, not as bad as I expected», as I kind of liked the melody and stuff. However, that thought disappeared after three songs sounding pretty much exactly the same.

The worst part is the vocals. The guy (?) singing has a voice whinier than Matt Pryor's castrated clone, and the screams are just downright embarrassing. I also took a look at some of the lyrics. They were pretty bland.
I'm giving this a 2/5, since while it's not Nickelback-terrible or anything, it's still pretty... bad.

Never could get into them either. But, to be fair, I've yet to find any core band I'd really want in my library.

If you like the Descendents you would most certainly like ALL. All is three members of The Descendents and Dag Nasty vocalist Dave Smalley.

Nice, two good things combined. Will check them out.
