they're this band...

[hotmetal401]

Arguably the worst band to come out of Montreal this decade. French Canada's contribuation to the Can Pop Punk scene.

Cheers,

Their songs have to do with being angry at mommy and daddy for a midnight curfew on school nights, and how the girl you sit next to in class won't say hi to you.

"The song,"World Container", probably, has the most production. It is a song that, really, could be just an acoustic guitar track and a vocal. I thought it could be something much bigger sounding."

Bob:

You was wrong.

What are you saying is wrong??? That Bob turned it into something big and ruined it?? or that you don't think it is bigger sounding song and are glad that Bob didn't make it big???


I'm confused...please explain Skip

All played, sung, and written by a group of guys in their mid-20s. Oh, wait a sec....do they even write their own songs??

That song is way overproduced. Too many layers added on. Bob Rock should have left that one alone and given it room to breathe.

I'm sure that when they play it live, it'll sound much more stripped down and 80 times better.

I dunno. Maybe we'll wait and fucking see if he develops some taste and judgment by then, shall we?

Do you mind elaborating on this?

Frankly, I think at times he sings like a 17-yr-old guitarist: lots of sound and f-all judgment. He did it on IBE, too. It's as if he feels he has to fill in all the space in the song. He doesn't give the rest of the band any space.

And no, I don't find he does it as much live.

But GORD IS THE BAND! I'm joking, well half joking anyway.

Can you give me an example of a classic oversing. I'm also trying to undestand this. Are we talking Makeshift with his line-cramming lyrics or something else.
