Not bad I guess. 7/10

You're Not Alone by Of Mice & Men

@Altered Tundra

Really not a fan of Of Mice and Men at all...just can't listen to them, I am sad to say. 2/10

[Hjalti]

@gowia Didn't really blow me away but it wasn't terrible and I could see it growing on me. Guessing The Ramones was one of their musical influences? 5-6/10

@Hjalti

5/10
I like the instrumentation and the vocals are listenable, but that annoying talking, 'story telling' with the strange british accent attempt really takes me out of the tune. Would have been a 7/10 if it wasn't in there.

@Dynamo Frokane Idk, it's a bit eccentric and quirky for my taste. Not the kind of jam I'd normally listen to but it's not that bad either. 5/10

@Scoundrel 8/10

[Hjalti]

@Lady Amalthea Don't take this the wrong way, but it's not really my thing. When I hear it the words "Pop Metal" come to mind and suddenly I'm picturing Avril Lavigne. I have nothing against female vocalists in metal, whether it be Kittie, Lacuna Coil, Flyleaf, iwrestledabearonce, etc, but this just kind of sounds like they got a pop singer and added her to a metal band. Radio-friendly Metal, basically and not what I'm really into. (That's not to say I don't see why it would appeal to others, it just doesn't appeal to me.) 3/10

@Hjalti Not bad, Not bad at all, I feel ive heard that synth in too many other songs though for this track to stand out to me, still a solid 6/10.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Hjalti Not taking any of it wrong, we all have it tastes, mine went from Metallica pure to European Metal with the likes of Nightwish and Kamelot about 15+ years ago, I just find Amaranthe a nice change. Isn't everyone's cup of tea.

@Dynamo Frokane Lmao, okay, this is awesome. 7/10

Time to go a bit old school and corny

[AlteredTundra]

@Lady Amalthea 7/10

I loved the intro and how the instrumentals sounded, but once it got to the vocals, I got turned off a bit. It wasn't because of it being straight-up punk. I love punk. It was more that the transition was so random and abrupt. I don't know, maybe it is cause it's straight up punk and it's just not my flavor. In either case, I enjoyed the instrumentals, so that's why I gave it a 7.

Kind of on a DCFC binge right now. xD

What Sarah Said by Death Cab For Cutie

[Hjalti]

@Lady Amalthea With all that said, I could see my wife enjoying them.

@Altered Tundra I usually have to be in a certain mood to listen to the more melodic stuff, but I could see myself listening to this on a long drive. 6/10.

[Scoundrel]

@Hjalti 4/10 Not really into industrial music and anything alike, plus the vocals don't appeal to me.

@Scoundrel Haven't listened to much Silverchair in a while, but I always enjoy it when I do. 7-8/10

6/10



At the least listen to the reprisal at the end if some rough voice singer isn't your thing.

@Chapatrap 2/10 I'm lost for words @_@

[Mixtape Ghost N]

6/10

Neat, but it was lacking a certain drift to catch my interest imo.



I should post on this damn thread more often. So here's a Neon Indian song.

[AlteredTundra]

@Mr Allen J 6/10

The beat was killer, but I wasn't all that high on the rest of it. Still, not a bad tune, I guess.

And, yes you should. :P

Broken And Abused by Eyeshine

[Dinh AaronMk]

2/10

To say like anyone has heard this before somewhere would be a correct observation. The singer - while technically good - isn't memorable and the emo background chorus isn't spectacular or even ground breaking (even for a washed out genre).



So now back to our regularly scheduled Ireland
