Metro Station

[Curtis&BemisRok]

Newly popularized band Metro Station has a hit single "Shake It". I don't know if anyone has really checked otu the self-titled EP, but it is mostly love songs in a powerpop format. I was wondering peoples ideas about the band. Awesome or lame? Will they make it any bigger or suddenly fall? Do they really have a shot at anyone besides for a group of 12 year old girls?

Opinions...

[jbaseball44]

Sorry if other people like em but i hate this band.

[jbaseball44]

by the way, everyone is going to tell you to use the search function.

[KatieKutthroat.]

Grr. Use the damn search function. And terrible band.

[CellarGhosts]

Terrible band.

It makes me happy to see how many people dislike this band

[Tyler Revolution]

Awful. That 'Shake It' song makes me cringe.

Your Avatar scared me for a second, it's pretty cool. What did you think of "Tha Carter III"?

[Dr. Acula]

Like the rest have said, TERRIBLE.

First spin, disappointed.

2nd spin, enjoyable.

Many spins later, I love it.

if you hate them so much then why do you keep posting...?

[micahistheballs]

Trace Cyrus is teh sex!!!!!!

[Kid B]

Hannah Montana's half brother is in the band, you know it sucks. Especially when he's the songwriter.
Example of lyrics (not joking, this is in shake it);
"Your body's cold, but girl, we're getting real warm". How romantic!

[Chancetobe]

Shake, shake, shake, shake a shake ittttttt.

I like the song. Haven't heard the album though.

[Angylion Gefell]

That band makes me want to kick puppies.

[zackisonfire]

That band makes me want to kick puppies.

This.

i second that

[stfu_man]

Not my cup of tea but that song is SO FUCKING CATCHY.

[Genuma]

Fuck Lil Wayne and fuck Metro Station.

[jbaseball44]

if you hate them so much then why do you keep posting...?

Cause i don't believe posting in a thread about a band means that i have to like them. I'm sorry if you like them, that's fine by me. I don't by any means hold the moral high ground on music, i was just happy to see that others shared my opinion and i wasn't the only one. Fair?

[imahoodlum]

Fuck Lil Wayne and fuck Metro Station.
i agree with both these statements.

[Kid B]

It saddens me that people are beginning to like this band.

[hockeyguitar99]

It saddens me that people are beginning to like this band.


but does it really surprise you?

[jbaseball44]

It saddens me that people are beginning to like this band.

What is liked by the general public is almost never any good. It's just the way things work, so there isn't really any surprise that this band is/will catch on.

[Kid B]

but does it really surprise you?
Due to all the negative press in Drew's thread about this band, sort of, but I really shouldn't have been.

[hockeyguitar99]

I mean they aren't very popular on this site, but there are a shit-load of preteen girls in the world.

I agree.

[imahoodlum]

for the record, i've seen them live and they are so bad. i left and got some french fries in the middle of their set. :-) i like french fries.

[iIrok]

They are pretty bad live!!!

[AP_Punk]

in hell, all they'll play is metro station.

along with ICP.

[imahoodlum]

in hell, all they'll play is metro station.

along with ICP.
i really hope i go to heaven then, if this is the case.

[hockeyguitar99]

I've never wanted to be a good person more than right now. I can not listen to metro station for the rest of eternity.

i tried to leave during their set on the bamboozle roadshow, and my ride wanted to stay.
but when Saves the Day's set began, she wanted to leave!

i reevaluated our friendship that day.

even if i put aside the fact that metro station suck it's pretty unfair if they force you to stay for their band and then try to make you leave during the one you want to see, especially if the one you want to see happens to fucking legendary.

[AP_Punk]

one of my close friends loves these guys.

that makes me sad.

[hockeyguitar99]

saves the day>>>>>>>getting aids>>>>>>metro station.

Ps-i like your avatar. isn't that a threadless shirt?

thats a pretty accurate scale.

[Kid B]

Runescape > Metro Station







I went there.

[dizzleforizzle]

saves the day>>>>>>>getting aids>>>>>>metro station.

Ps-i like your avatar. isn't that a threadless shirt?
yep. i just got it few days ago.

my thoughts exactly. she was scared of the mosh pits during set your goals, and was worried it would get worse...so i told her to sit by the skate ramps with the scene kids.

[imahoodlum]

yep. i just got it few days ago.
i just changed my avatar from a threadless shirt just today. i love threadless!

[Angylion Gefell]

Runescape > Metro Station


Members of one play the other. and vice versa.

[hockeyguitar99]

my thoughts exactly. she was scared of the mosh pits during set your goals, and was worried it would get worse...so i told her to sit by the skate ramps with the scene kids.

She thought that the mosh pits would be crazier for saves the day than set your goals? I can imagine the fans being more passionate, but not crazier mosh pits. and LOL to the scene kids remark

[imahoodlum]

i have friends like this too. pisses me off. i want to get right in the middle of the action and they are too busy being pussies. i have no choice but to leave their asses behind.

[imahoodlum]

oh and the person who started this thread. search function!

[Angylion Gefell]

Late.

[imahoodlum]

[dizzleforizzle]

she had never heard of Saves the Day.
i realized how shitty her taste in music is and i'm never going to a concert with her again.

[imahoodlum]

Oh. That's okay then. Let me join you.

GTFO AND SEARCH FUNCTION THIS SHIT
oh thank you for joining me in my bitchiness
she had never heard of Saves the Day.
i realized how shitty her taste in music is and i'm never going to a concert with her again.

[Angylion Gefell]

:bow:

[dizzleforizzle]

shes never heard of saves the day?! disown her.
she's been one of my best friends since 1st grade...so i took pity on her misguided ears.

[imahoodlum]

haha. what a nice friend you are. i tell my friends when i think the music they listen to sucks...

[dizzleforizzle]

her taste has improved, but that night was ridiculous.

for a minute i thought i was best friends with a twelve year old fan girl.

[matthewpaul]

band is so catchy

[WhoSaidThat?]

Fuck Lil Wayne and fuck Metro Station.
Swing and a miss (not in that order).

[xbrokenxscenex6]

*sigh* I admit to used to liking this band.
Untill, the radio started playing their songs...a lot.
After that, I was just like 'fuck this' and stopped listening to them before the 13 year old fangirls killed me or something.

[Chris Fallon]

Perfect example of everything wrong with today's popular music scene.

[Regards]

:goodpost:

[fran.182]

lil wayne and metro station...both suck


how can someone says this is catchy?

[CellarGhosts]

Perfect example of everything wrong with today's popular music scene.
Definitely.

God, I hate this band. They should just haul their sorry asses back to MySpace and we can all hope and pray that their music never sees the light of day again.

[kevinrocks409]

this band needs to fucking die.

[CellarGhosts]

yes plz

[hockeyguitar99]

Perfect example of everything wrong with today's popular music scene.

Yes they are. I'd also say that that's probably due to the fact that 12 year old girls control a lot of the music scene.

[EmoGangstaTMT]

This band is about as good as the sound of my shit coming out of my ass.

[chipdip18]

I dislike this band.

[Chris Fallon]

Trace Cyrus is one ugly motherfucker, too. Goddamn.

[theguy77]

chris, when i release my album, is there anything you can do for me?

[alice+interiors]

Someday i'll have a bold name and i won't be on the bottom of the food chain.

[Chris Fallon]

True. At least in the music forum.

[alice+interiors]

My bold name surely isn't far off.

[chipdip18]

You could give it to Linda and have her put it on the whats in our mail box list as well as the list for the user reviewers.

[Chris Fallon]

Only if it's legit and fucking good. Otherwise ... I'm pooping on it.

[handlikesecret]

i really don't mind this band, but i hate the fact that so many 12 year olds obsess over them.

[WhoSaidThat?]

dont like them, dont hate them. only ever heard one song.
gotta admit though, ''Shake It'' is a great party song. not the kind of song i'd have on my ipod though.
