are they comparable?

Post by gravedigger »

anyone dare to compare? Some Devil to Everyday to Busted Stuff? I'm interested in your thoughts. I'm gonna leave my thoughts alone for now.
good, and you?

I personally think they are all shitty in their own special way, and there's no need for comparison.

Thats about as in depth as I'm going to get.

ah come on!!!!!!! you can do better than that, mb!! and what do you mean there's no need for comparison, that's like saying there's no need for Comparing Dave to Mayer where there obviously must be a need for it.

peace
good, and you?

undoubtedly. however, i really enjoyed busted stuff, i thought it was good music and the whole album had a good flow. some devil took a few listens to grow on me, but i'm hooked now. though very mellow and laid-back, i am really, really impressed. i wasn't expecting much though. everyday... well, i didn't like it.

anywho. my two cents.

i didn't listen to busted stuff as much, because it was definitely old material, so i had been spoilt on it. i've listened to some devil more than i've listened to everyday, and it's still growing on me.

i like what the band did with the Everyday songs on the road. i think they were too hastily put on a CD but the songs have matured a bit and i really liked them in concert.

BS was too fast. i really think they should have just let that one go. it didn't really need to be realeased. and somedevil needs some time too. i think they really need to let some songs live on the road before they go recording again. i hope it is at least 18 months to 2 years before we see another album just so the songs can grow more before recording.

I really dislike Busted Stuff. (exception Grey Street, YNK, Bartender)
Everyday is better to me.
Some Devil is somewhere in the middle.

if we're talking about just the album by itself, i'd say that Some Devil is the best of those. but i voted for Busted Stuff because of the kick-ass live versions of all the songs on it.

I really enjoy Busted Stuff.

The song Busted Stuff is catchy, Grey Street is awesome, WAYG is better than Crash Into Me, YNK is great, Big Eyed Fish -> Bartender is absolutely incredible.


Everyday doesn't even come close.


I haven't come to a verdict on Some Devil simply because I haven't taken the time to hear the lyrics closely

I fell in love with Some Devil the moment i heard it, I can't honestly say that Busted Stuff really stuck by me. It's got some good songs, but I just love everything off Some Devil.
