Bush

I really liked 16 Stone. Of course they were "ripping off" Nirvana and Pearl Jam, but that was probably what they were listening to at the time and wanted to do. Gavin's lyrics kinda suck, but there just a good overall band, at least for that album.

I love the bass playing on this record to especially "Swim" and of course "Comedown" which is one of the most famous bass lines in the last 20 years, I think that part is very overlooked. Not the best band, but they don't deserve all the criticism they get on the net.

The singles were great, and there were a few other gems thrown in too like "Swim" and "Testosterone". It's the only album from them I would care to listen to, but I'm not upset about it and still listen to it everyonce in a while.
 
The one tolerable song CrazyTown did have is Butterfly. I remeraber how when it first came out everybody wanted to have that song played at some dance or other.

At any rate, Institute >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bush.

I heard Gavin's song Adrenaline and I don't care for his solo work. It sucks.
 
Boy someone was taking his "start some shi t pill today"

Yeah, I like how whenever people pick giant well known banRAB as WBE they seem to leave out crap like oingo boingo or Saigon Kick. Please remeraber, you only hate them because you hear them alot (for a reason) and that if they decided to throw on Quiet Riot CD"s you beg for pearl jam back.

:pimp:
 
Nothing CrazyTown ever did was tolerable. Butterfly was a crappy song with a sample of a good song thrown in, to make people think they had talent. Bush is average.
 
I think that accolade goes to the Foo Fighters, who grew out of the remanents of Nirvana and carried on their work in a more harmonic, positive and life-affirming style. Wheras Bush were a pretty cluless wannabe version of Nirvana.
 
I think where you`ve written the worRAB "Ripping" and "Gavin`s lyrics kinda suck" says it all really. I find Bush probably one of the worst mainstream banRAB to have ever come out of the UK. When I think of Nirvana and Bush I think of gold and copper, when I think of Kurt Cobain and Gavin Rossdale I think of diamonRAB and brass.

I once read an interview with Gavin Rossdale, that stated that the group were not trying to copy Nirvana (which is laughable) but had instead based themselves on the Pixies (SounRAB like Kurt here)........I find his references quite insulting to both either Nirvana or the Pixies.

I think either the group`s drummer or bass player used to be in Transvision Vamp......Now that`s something to be ashamed of.

I think Bush should`ve done the decent thing and that was to have simply passed themselves off as a Nirvana covers band.
 
Why don't you just ask him? Or are you one of those people that are like "Hey look I like them too even though I don't know who they are o0o0o let's make out I'm a tryhard look at me I have band merch from concerts that I've never been to, o0o0o"
 
I actually like Bush.
And no it's not because I'm attracted to Gavin Rosdale like every other 15 year old chick who think they're punk because they like No Doubt and wanna imitate her.
Trust me. I'm not the person to listen to your music if you suck.
Same way if you make chicken but it sucks. You could be my best friend but life is to short for me to waste eating food I don't like. Same with music.

At any rate I know their last album didn't sell well but yeah I bought it. And I think my favorite song by them would have to be Machine Head. Or Cloud 9 I think it's called. I think that's a pretty song.

Peace out.
 
I loathe Crazytown and that piece of shit Butterfly, I probably hate it more than I hated that "How Bizarre" song from the 90's.

Bush are just noise. It's like going from driving a Ferrari (good music) to driving a Toyota Corrolla (Bush). Dull, bland, creates no feeling for anything, although there sure are a lot of Corrolla's out there.
