Music & Critics

Bridge of Clay · 05-11-2004, 08:10 PM

So, considering Myles has a lot of fans within the music industry, do you think Alterbridge will get bad reviews from critics and people in general?

Although it's always good to feel you're in the opposite way knowing you're right, I hope they don't, coz it isn't nice - obviously.

Anyway, I was wondering what they could say...

"Hey, have you heard Alterbridge? Their singer is such a rip off from Mayfield Four vocalist..." :lol:

"That guy playing guitar with his foot on the monitor... I bet he's trying to copycat that Creed player"

Blah blah blah...

It'd be amazing for the fans of Alterbridge to find out that three-fourths of the the members of the band are from Creed.

Here's a relevant analogy: You like a girl, but then a female friend of yours tells you that that she really is a he.

Bridge of Clay · 05-11-2004, 08:58 PM

actually it's a disgusting analogy! LOL!

Ummmmm Trees of Wisdom - Did this happen to you?

And yeah it would be pretty cool for the people who just come on to be fans of AB and find out about the Creed connection. I was talking to this guy who was saying he was a Myles fan but never really liked Creed. So I was thinking, "Hmmmmm will he like Alter Bridge then????"

I would hope they would have open minds. There will be the inevitable comparisons to Creed and the Mayfield Four, though, I'm sure. Most of the critics had issues with Scott S. and gave grudging approval to Mark, so we shall see.

I dont think the critics were down on Mark or the music, they gave Scott a hard time usually. I am sure you will get critics saying Myles sounds like this guy or that but his vocal range has always impressed critics.Who cares what the critics say as long as the fans like it~

while the critics don't matter, after a fair amount of negative press it does get to you after a while. i hope alter bridge is loved and respected by fans, general music fans and the critics alike.

Yeah, but just the way some stupid people are, I figure that once they find out that 3 of the members are from Creed, they'll despise them just as much. Now, like someone said, if they have open minds, then it will be better. But, I can think of quite a few people who won't like them because of Creed. They are idiots though!

i was the same way w/ audioslave... never was a big fan of rage b/c zach (sp?), to me, is a tree-hugging liberal pussy, and that stuff annoys the hell out of me, especially when it comes to music.... but i think audioslave is some pretty sweet shit

I second that dude. I used to hate Rage Against the Machine.

"Renegades of funk"?!

Yeah, the leadsinger was one annoying leftist pussy. It's funny because I liked the guitar in one of their songs, but the rapping came in and it really spoiled the whole song for me.

altered · 05-12-2004, 07:43 PM

There is some great guitar on the Rage cds, There is no comparing Chris to Zk, Chris actually sings and does it extremely well.

Yeah, God forbid anybody express his or her views, leftist or otherwise, through music (insert tree-hugging sarcasm here). We should all be of one right-wing mind, right? Suppress all those who don't share your opinion.

Why must you always insult people who don't share your views?
And RAGE was awesome.
