If the band sucks or the vocals suck you can't get past that to feel emotional about the songs. That stuff has to be good first. |

As for why I'm still here... I'm not realy sure. Part of it is the train-wreck factor, part of it is that I've followed this band for so bloody long that I'm just curious to see what turns out (maybe a little hope that Corgan will get his shit together and just do his own thing or work with some better musicians and put out some good music again) But let's see it for what it is, Teargarden and Oceania are shit albums. If you like it you should check out this band called Matchbox 20. Last edited by fuzzyroes : 01-21-2014 at 06:51 AM. |

Oceania is the kind of middle of the road, non-offensive album that did well because it's the type of music that a soccer mom would pick up (because she remembers SP from when she was a teen), pop into the car player and have it on in the background as she drives from time to time.
It's sorta like the new U2. Does well cause it's something that people who don't like music pick up and just have on to hum along with in the background because it's so straightforward and safe... A goo-goo dolls, John Mayer kinda thing. |

It's less about 'breaking up' SP than carrying on with a certain level of integrity. There's no good reason why SP shouldn't have had the same career arc as Pearl Jam. But one still packs arena's and the other...well...bickers about past b.s. |

i'm just saying that even the least talented piece of human garbage that has ever soiled the world with his music wouldn't let something like teargarden see the light of day

Teargarden could have been awesome but I think most of us were expecting acoustic bedroom songs

Lol, what have I said that isn't true?
I've always had a tremendous passion for music. I got seriously into it when I was 8. I think I know quite a bit about it. I've also played the guitar for over 15 years and drums over 10, so I have a fair understanding about the fundamentals and production of music |

I'm not even trying to be a "negative nancy" I listened to Oceania many times, wanting to dig it... But it just does nothing for me. Even Teargarden had 1 good song (tom-tom). Lets face it, these last 2 albums are the big turds in the punchbowl SP library-wise. Zeitgeist was spotty, but atleast Jimmy acted as a saving grace. It's hard to find any redeeming qualities in these last 2 releases. Stop trying to polish a turd Julia... And I thought you were just ranting and raving about the band sucking ass a few months ago? Why the sudden change of heart? you and Nicole conversing on the internet again? haha |

I think Zeitgeist is just pumpkins trash, it sounds like Billy tried to think about how the pumpkins would sound if James and D'arcy were never involved. Which I am not into. i do like neverlost Neverlost. I don't think you know what Corgan meant when he said "nicey-nice". Also, You know a lot of people who were fans up to Adore called that album boring and shitty too. Sorry to screw your theory, but I no longer speak to nicole. I have respect for her as a musician though. |

juliana if i were to accept that all music was subjective then i'd have to actually acknowledge that limp bizkit and nickelback are actually good, it's just not my taste.
i refuse to accept this. music is objective! some things are factually shit! I'm working on proving it with mathematics! |

He also thinks that since I am interested in a new SP album, I am stuck in the past and should find new music. However, he has stated he is on these boards and hasn't moved on because he likes all the old SP albums. |
