Bottom 5 Worst SP2 songs

Pasta of Muppet · 11-19-2008, 12:58 AM

5. Bleeding the Orchid
4. Owata
3. Neverlost
2. For God and Country
1. SuperChrist

Dishonourable mention: Song for a Son. This song plus Owata are basically SP setting emotion to Autopilot.

redbull · 11-19-2008, 01:01 AM

Owata
Peace + Love
Stellar
Starz

but That's the Way takes the absolute cake

rudi · 11-19-2008, 01:22 AM

1. United States (BORING AS HELL, HORRIBLE STUDIO VERSON)
2. For God and Country
3. Starz
4. Doomsday Clock (I still listen to it at the gym, but it is such a "product" song, like it came from a download code that I got off the back of a Pepsi can)

I can't think of a 5th. I actually really love the new material. It's just the PRODUCTION of Z that really messed it up.

avsfan7733 · 11-19-2008, 01:22 AM

1. thats the way
2. orchid (only because of the production)
3. doomsday clock
4. neverlost

wow this is alot harder than i expected.

dustrock · 11-19-2008, 01:27 AM

there's a whole bunch of the residencies stuff I find rather boring, but I can't really remember the individual songs.

1. neverlost
2. that's the way
3. united states
4. sunkissed (american gothic version)
5. c'mon let's go

rudi · 11-19-2008, 01:28 AM

Isn't it? You don't really realize that MOST of the new songs are either good or awesome... it IS pretty easy to focus on the annoyance of songs like God and Country.

Surprised at That's The Way... what don't you like about it? I love the vocal line in the chorus, love the bouncy drumming, the spacy poppy guitar, and I think it's one of the better-produced Zeitgeist tracks. It's one of my top 3 favorites on Z, easy.

yoshinobu's revenge · 11-19-2008, 01:31 AM

for god and country (altho live acoustic is ok, album version is horrible)
bleeding the orchiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid
g.l.o.w.
heavy metal machine still sucks
some of the residency songs, don't know the names tho

i haven't heard the newest stuff (owata, song for a son, etc.) other than as rome burns.

SpFission · 11-19-2008, 01:33 AM

Cmon Lets Go
Peace + Love
Starz
For God and Country (Studio) - Live Acoustic is good
Again,Again,Again

Mablak · 11-19-2008, 01:35 AM

I can find something redeeming about most SP songs except Tarantula and GLOW. Dross is also down there for me, meh.

They are boring, true, but at least they aren't really BAD.

I suppose that's the outcome of songs that were written in a day, most of which were either solo/acoustic or basically really stripped down.

wHATcOLOR · 11-19-2008, 01:39 AM

united states
superchrist
glow
some shit on american gothic
some shit on zeitgeist such as the first song or some others

add ma belle to this list, and you've got my top 5 favorite sp2 songs

runnersdialzero · 01:52 AM

o man this list is far easier... i guess i feel more "offended" by studio renditions though since they are more commited, so there will be no super new songs on this list. For a song to be on an official release and suck is far worse than a new track that is getting test driven

1. Come on lets go (so bad)
2. Neverlost
3. Pox
4. GLOW
5. for god and country

Mo · 11-19-2008, 01:46 AM

You people are insane.

redbreegull · 11-19-2008, 01:47 AM

Nothing even comes close to the level of bad that Come on let's Go reaches.

1. Come On (Let's Go!)
2. Doomsday Clock
3. For God and Country (as said by others, acoustic version is much better)
4. Death From Above
5. Pox

hoboj0e · 11-19-2008, 02:24 AM

Superchrist
United States
Heavy Metal Machine (new live version, boring as hell and at times, cringeworthy)

I am more like the silent observer usually. I have been on this board for several years, thought I would give something back to my number one source of SP material, news and gossip. And of course, it rids me of all advertisements on the site. It is pretty cool, you should try it.

Thaniel Buckner · 11-19-2008, 02:41 AM

wouldn't bottom five worst mean top five best?

I know about this. I still wanted to contribute to the community. And Pakula lured me in with a great christmas offer last year. I recommend it for everyone.

It's the worst five songs by SP2, which would make them at the bottom of a list of SP2 songs from best to worst.

jczeroman · 11-19-2008, 05:50 AM

1. (Come On) Let's Go!
2. Pomp and Circumstances
3. That's the Way
4. Neverlost
5. G.L.O.W.

hnibos · 06:03 AM

5. residency songs(dull, dull, DULL)
4. rest of zeitgeist(except for starz)
3. american gothic
2 and 1. glow and neverlost can be used here interchangeably.

maybe american gothic should be number one, it still blows my mind that something like that was released under the name "Smashing Pumpkins", but what the fuck do i know, it takes time to make good music, cant just shit out siamese dream, i must be patient and sit through shit music first, right?

unlachs · 11-19-2008, 06:15 AM

yeh this is pretty easy with american gothic and zeitgeist to work with:

1) DEATH FROM ABOVE
2) pomp and circumstances
3) pox
4) the rest of zeigeist goes here
5) again again again

T&T · 11-19-2008, 07:35 AM

Doomsday Clock
7 Shades of Black
Bleeding the Orchid
Again, Again, Again (The Crux)
Pox
