[thursdayx20]

anyone wanna do a webrip?

[ben pequeno]

anyone wanna do a webrip? for halifax? no.

[thursdayx20]

for halifax? no.

No, do it for me.

[ben pequeno]

No, do it for me. did you listen to the song?

[dontgrabtindy]

so boring live

[serendipity]

haha it's so crue.

[thursdayx20]

did you listen to the song?


Yes.

[TheGoodnightMoon]

To me, this sounds like a lame Motley Crue or some shit. This is the only song on the album I cannot stand.

[serendipity]

Girls! Girls! Girls!

[ThatGirl]

im pretty excited about this cd. ive heard some of the songs live. and i was impressed. but thats just me.

[already heard]

To me, this sounds like a lame Motley Crue or some shit. This is the only song on the album I cannot stand.

I was just about to say the exact same thing. I've always been a Halifax fan, and i can not get into this track at all. 'Our Revolution' is by far the weakest track on the upcoming album. The track was chosen because its a 'harder rock' song, and produced by Machine, simple as that.

[Hurleydude413]

I don't know HTML, so is there another link or do I just wait for this link to fully load then it should work? Also when I was reading AP a while back they said that "Our Revolution" was inspired by Motley Crue and they got Nikki Sixxs approval on the song.

[Hurleydude413]

The link doesnt load a song for me. I don't know what to do..

Wait was it about the AP part?

I read the same thing in AP. Knowing that about the song, I don't think its bad at all. I bet its really good live.

I can't get it to work for some reason! I want to hear it, I loved the clips. I bet it is good live too, I'm going to see them late May.

[Hurleydude413]

Forget it, I got it!

[ben pequeno]

Forget it, I got it! prepared to be letdown.

[truestar1015]

I can't get it to work for some reason! I want to hear it, I loved the clips. I bet it is good live too, I'm going to see them late May.

I missed seeing them back in March and I really regreted it. So I'm jealous! I had trouble getting it to work but for some reason it just started. Sorry I'm not much help.

[Hurleydude413]

prepared to be letdown.

Dude I actually really like it, deff like the Crue, but I like it. I can't wait to hear this live, I also like "Under Fire" that's my favorite song that I've heard so far.

[ben pequeno]

Dude I actually really like it, deff like the Crue, but I like it. I can't wait to hear this live, I also like "Under Fire" that's my favorite song that I've heard so far. i like that one song that's like, "i need you like water in my lungs"

[Hurleydude413]

i like that one song that's like, "i need you like water in my lungs"

I don't know which one that is, its either "Anthem For Tonight" or "Nightmare" if that's even them. The tracks that I've heard I really like. Drive Thru is going to make a comeback..

[ben pequeno]

I don't know which one that is, its either "Anthem For Tonight" or "Nightmare" if that's even them. The tracks that I've heard I really like. Drive Thru is going to make a comeback.. oh yea, 4 real. halifax is going to pick drive thru up!

[yutsmcgee]

It's a lame rip off of Motley Crue's "Wild Side"

[dakinemaui1983]

The music video for this song is unreal... believe me, EVERY guy on the planet will HIGHLY enjoy the video... well, i shouldn't say that, the guys that make posts on this site are usually too high strung on trying to bring down every band for not being the most advanced/intelligent/new type of music ever.... butttt, to the guys who love a fun song, and ridiculously hot girls, and a group of guys who know how to have a good time... THEY will like the song/video...

[ben pequeno]

btw, to anyone who read my posts in this thread: i was being sarcastic.

I haven't seen the video, but I enjoy the song. From what I've seen of these guys they know how to have fun. Hope their live show is at good as it seems.

And to Ben thank you for putting down Halifax..

[histrionics22]

"btw, to anyone who read my posts in this thread: i was being sarcastic."

HALIFAX!!! I HATE THEM THEY SUCK!! perrfecttttt... i can finally announce how much these guys suck to everyone and make witty comments to gain popularity on absolutepunk. sweet.. i never really understood that... interesting

[ben pequeno]

[dakinemaui1983]

what the fuck did you just say? did you really not understand what i said? are you serious? do you plug peoples post into a machine which will only pick up perfect punctuation and grammar? i'm writing a post on a website, who cares about correct punctuation and grammar, if you couldn't understand what i was writing you are a fucking idiot... if i was writing a paper for one of my college classes i would give a rats ass about making it perfect, but having a quick little talk with someone like you... nottt so much

[Hurleydude413]

Yeah I did, I didn't even think about the lyrics, I just thought about the 4 Halifax song's that I've heard.

[ben pequeno]

Yeah I did, I didn't even think about the lyrics, I just thought about the 4 Halifax song's that I've heard. hahaha, no. it was brand new. i was just trying to mess with you. thanks for being a good sport.

[Hurleydude413]

hahaha, no. it was brand new. i was just trying to mess with you. thanks for being a good sport.

It's all good dude, I don't care, good trick though. I didn't even notice, now I know I have to actually think about lyrics before I comment.

[dakinemaui1983]

actually i was gonna quote you, but i never make posts on absolutepunk... hence i'm not sure how to do the quote thing.. soo i just put what you wrote in quotations, i figured that if anyone read it, they could look up a couple of posts and easily see where that quotation came from, butttt i see that that was not efficient, forgive my stupidity, i will look into making proper quotations of your posts, your intelligence far surpasses me in every realm possible...

(this is where i stick in the i'm being sarcastic thing) YA FUCKING IDIOT

[ohsweetirony]

this is biggest/worst rip off of motley crue ever. such a piece of shit band.

[ben pequeno]

this is biggest/worst rip off of motley crue ever. such a piece of shit band. hahaha, i love that a girl said that. thank you.

[mufugger]

kickstart my heart.

[ra223]

drive thru never died. They've had the shtitiest run since the Geffen situation and pesonally i think it was better for them. Its really shown some bands true colours towards the whole Geffen situation and their feeligns on DTR. I wont getinto detail there, but at the end fo the day DTR has signed an amazing new roster. With talent five times the size that it once have. So much diversity is on this label. Its not just a "pop punk" label anymore. DTR is a great family and its going to release some of the best albums of the "scene." I've said it b4 that Halifax has the potential to be one of those bands that can last for a long time I think this album will prove it. The new TEN will blow everyones minds, HGB will make everyone happy in their pants, and thats just to mention the big releases this year.

[histrionics22]

And this songs sounds nothing like the rest of the album. I think they completely changed up Murder I Wrote.

Agreed, you forgot about David Melillo though, his EP is really good. They also have Hidden In Plain View on their roster which I truely enjoy listening to. I think they have a fantastic roster.

[jusscali]

idont really care what people think, i really want to get my hands on this release. from what ive heard im very interested

[AbsentTruth]

I can't wait for this CD.

[Slovo]

why cant i get to the mp3?

[XBurnedDesireX]

Im digging this........

I agree 100%....DTR hasn't had the greatest time lately but once everything gets sort it out they will still be a great label....

[livethesounds]

No, do it for me.

I downloaded the song from their purevolume page. i really like t he song, alot better than their older stuff, i think

[lftcoastenvy05]

I read the same thing in AP. Knowing that about the song, I don't think its bad at all. I bet its really good live.

oh it is. this was the only song that stuck out in my mind when i last saw them. it was excellent.

[tommyhaych]

btw, to anyone who read my posts in this thread: i was being sarcastic.

I've just been ignoring you

Well said, too Ra. Drive-Thru are gonna put all the haters in their place.

Also, I've quite warmed to this song, I fuckin love the first 30 seconds of it.

[TheBaroness]

yikes, this is shite.

what the fuck is up with all these former-"punk" bands ripping off bad 80's hair metal? that trend needs to die, now.

[vegasbabyvegas]

Sounds like Letter Kills and/or a bad Motely Crue riff to me.

[betterthanyou]

it's pretty sad that these fuckin pop punk posers are now totally ripping off motley crue's "kickstart my heart"...didn't these queef chains used to sing about how much they wanted to suck off that fat kid band the ataris? now they're trying to bring the rock via Pedophile Drive Thru ! give me a break .. they won't get away with this...i'm calling Nikki Sixx today

[Beloved Broken]

Nikki Sixx actually liked it. Just as I do.

Go read Alt Press you moron.

[GreenJellyBean]

To me, this sounds like a lame Motley Crue or some shit. This is the only song on the album I cannot stand.

same here. i don't like it at all.

[betterthanyou]

Go read Alt Press you moron.


why? so I can read about even shittier bands? I don't even care if this song got the seal of fuckin approval from the Crue themselves...Motley Crue hasn't been in their right minds since the early 90's ....(example: Nikki Sixx and Simple Plan, all of Tommy Lee's albums, Vince Neil is fuckin fat, Mick Marrs is a mummy).... since when did blatant rip offs become ok? ........I guess the fans are so young they're not gonna know the difference ...but I'll tell ya this, the 1985 Crue would have kicked the shit out of these kids ....... but who knows...maybe nicki sixx gets residuals .....in that case I hope the next song they cover is "Shout at the Devil."....

....go read Fader you boron!!!

[violencexgrace]

I agree about the guitars being kinda Emanuel-ish. Despite all this shit these kids are talking, the big sound has a lot of good energy. Halifax randomly played my college last week or something, and this song was more or less one of the only songs the crowd really felt. The intro/riff to this thing is incredible.

[moonlights]

i don't care what you all say about this being a ripoff, it gets the crowd fucking going live. I'm damn excited for this album.

by the way, to whoever said to download it on purevolume, its not there...so i ask, rip anyone?

You're still an idiot, but it's okay. I'm sure some kids are "so young" they will think you're ranting and raving is really cool and take your opinions to heart. I wish I was as hardcore as you....which bands must I adore and blow for that honor???
