Then they got huge overnight, Justin took too *way* too much coke and forget it was supposed to be fun. Since the comeback they've remembered what it was all about - fun and silliness over massive riffs. They're in on the whole thing, and it works brilliantly - everything is done with a knowing wink.
Contrast Steel Panther (who act like they're not joking) and Kiss (who don't realise they are a joke)
The Premier Guitar rig rundown with Justin is really funny.
There's a guy coming down from Sony
Artist an' repertoire
If he likes what he hears in those stupid ears
I'll buy myself a faster car
He's blowing smoke up our asses
Everything we do is ace
He wants to wine and dine us, desperate to sign us
'Cause we melted his fuckin' face
The wordsmithery in Buccaneers of Hispaniola is ruddy brilliant as well
Last album is great, lyrics in Japanese Prisoner of love are great
Its filed under the same category as AcDc and (especially) Thin Lizzy, but with more emphasis on unashamed fun.
1. Agree to an extent, but, a lot of that was the drugs. He's an OK guitarist. He's a lot better now than he used to be. Back in the Permission to Land hey-day he was playing Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifiers, which just pack so much gain it kinda made it easier for him to cover up his occasionally sloppy playing. Back in that time he was playing guitar pretty much the entire set. He doesn't really do that any more, and his rig is much simpler.
2. His playing is much more pivotal part of TD's sound, both live and in the studio now. He can really hold his own now.
3. Yes. Yes they are.
4. The are, for different reasons to the previous. You haven't made any comment on Hot Cakes anywhere. It's again a very different album to the others. There is good songs. There's also some utter tripe.
5. Agreed 100%
6. I couldn't care less what he did with his teeth, personally, the fact is the Pinewood Smile album cover still looks like shite.
7. He can't quite hit the note anymore.
8. Yes, Rufus Taylor is an excellent drummer. So was Emily Dolan Davis who played on Last Of Our Kind. There was nothing wrong with Ed Graham, but Rufus is an excellent drummer.
9. No. Wash your mouth out. Nobody can replace Queen. Nobody can out-Queen Queen. They can sure as hell have a damn good go at it though (refer to "Rock in Space", bonus track from Pinewood Smile). IMHO, should've been a main album track and opener. Subject to opinion. Yes, as I said, they are great... but Queen's still untouchable.
10. The Darkness are the band Guns n Roses could have been.
But I'm surprised they haven't had a call from Mr Duffy and Mr Astbury about the riff
No.
