The Official Senses Fail Roast!

[SonnyPunk]

With all this Senses Fail drama going on around here at AP...I figured why not have a thread devoted to pointing out how much they suck. I listened to the EP tonight just to remember why I dont like it. And I actually laughed out loud when he says "IM INSANE!!!!" Hahaha its actually quite funny.

[boysdontcry]

oh fuck i can't stand senses fail. the only other band like them that i hate more is alexisonfire but i'll hold that rage in for now. who cares if SF's new CD is coming out on drive-thru, vagrant, or victory? it's gonna suck no matter what. wait, i take that back. if rich egan likes SF then i guess that gives them scene points.

I LOVE SENSES FAIL!

[FarPastGone]

I like Alexisonfire.....but whatever; I don't like Senses Fail either, so theirs something we both agree on.

[SonnyPunk]

Cmon roast these bastards..."I had a dream last night and in my dream I robbed a country club...a 5 year old tried to stop me but I shot him through the head...and now he's dead." Hahahahaha now those are some intense poetic lyrics.

[MrChainsaw389]

whooo!!!!!!! I've been waiting for this one!! I HATE senses fail!!!!

[SonnyPunk]

whooo!!!!!!! I've been waiting for this one!! I HATE senses fail!!!!

But WHY do you hate them? Inquiring minds want to know....

[MrChainsaw389]

because they don't live up to how awesome DTR is

[boysdontcry]

because they don't live up to how awesome DTR is
hahaha that's great because, save for a few bands, drive-thru sucks.

[MrChainsaw389]

you suck!! hehe I keed

from some intense poets.

[13th hour]

I dont like them because they think theyre hardcore. They think theyre punk. Theyre a fucking pop band. AGHHH

[MrChainsaw389]

I don't like them because they suck ^_^

[MaybeOneDay]

You people care way too fucking much about who trys to act punk, and who tries to act hardcore ? Who the fuck cares how they act ? It's not like these guys are in the white house and affecting the way you live. Jesus christ, let people do whatever the hell they want to do. You can hate their music, fine. But if you say you don't like them because the way they act, then your just a fucking retard.

As for Senses Fail, I like them. And Alexisonfire as well (local guys). I don't care how unitelligent their lyrics are, and how terribly un-poetic they may be. It's music. Don't get so worked up about it. If you like it, listen to it. If not, then don't. Just shut the fuck up already and stop bitching about bands who are out there doing what they want to do. If you don't like them, frankly, nobody cares. End of story.

I agree w/ him. Starting a thread like this is silly, but I still don't like that band. Oh well.

[Trainsaw]

i'm surprised this band takes much more shit on here than Good Charlotte whats this the 5th or 6th thread dedicated to this band in a week? SF aren't anything spectacular but there is a whole lot worse out there and a whole lot worse on drive thru than them.

[aurora]

I don't like them... but yeah. This really isn't necessary. Now a GC roast. THAT would be good times indeed. :)

[Trainsaw]

true that.

[The Bled 13]

true that.

Senses Fail would probably like something like this, all this attention and shit. It'd be better if we just decided to ignore a band such as this.

[Coronary Parasite]

^^yeah true but then again i bet they're too drunk to even notice anything right now anyway

[Trainsaw]

i wish i was too drunk to notice anything right now. but nooooooooo i have to go to school again. fucking spring break that only lasts a week long. sorry there's my rant

[The Bled 13]

Possibly.

[The Bled 13]

Haha, I'm in school...

RIGHT NOW!

[aurora]

Haha, I'm in school...

RIGHT NOW!
How do you get away with that?

[Trainsaw]

i got out of classes at 2 but i have a class at 5 so i'm not totally free yet. But i have tuesday and thursdays off so school isn't too bad.

[Coronary Parasite]

i wish i was too drunk to notice anything right now. but nooooooooo i have to go to school again. fucking spring break that only lasts a week long. sorry there's my rant
...sober...

[em0]

i made a thread about their full length coming out in two months. i admited i hated their ep. it was just so boring and got old so quick. their full length is amazing. ive honestly been listening to it for the past 4 days. you guys are all going to eat your words once you hear it. you can't really give a band a chance after listening to a 6 song ep...

[Coronary Parasite]

i don't care about their music, i don't like them. the end.

[Coronary Parasite]

and by the way, i could d/l the album if i want it i just don't...

[em0]

and by the way, i could d/l the album if i want it i just don't...

well thats your decision then. you may be one to judge a band by how they act or what kind of people they are...but i am not. it's not like i'm ever going to hang out with them or even talk to them, i could care less. their new cd sounds good so i listen to it. they can be drunk all the time for all i care or huge assholes. their decision it doesn't effect me one bit.

[Coronary Parasite]

^^it's beyond that..and you can judge a band by a six song ep..anadevine, silent majority, this years model etc...

[em0]

^^it's beyond that..and you can judge a band by a six song ep..anadevine, silent majority, this years model etc...

you can judge the ep. keep in mind this is their first release and it being only 6 songs you can't really determine if the band is worthy of listening to. the anadivine ep had like 2 good songs on it. however i wont say i don't like them until i hear a full length because i realize that was the first thing they have ever done.

maybe its not this way in every bands case. this is also my opinion only.

[Coronary Parasite]

i thought the anadevine ep was good...

i'm not gonna start a fight over this because i really don't care about them...

you like them and i don't the end.

Yeah they suck and all but check the link out first.

[ThriftWhore]

You can't force someone to like/dislike a band, so why bother.

Plus, the band is FUCKING loving this. They love any mention of their name. Any press, is good press.

you may be able to judge them, but i don't think that qualifies as a good enough chance given to them before you form a final opinion.

[KarolaBloch]

okk i agree with Brandon and Trainsaw. esp Brandon he hit the nail on the head with what he said.. but here is my two cents..
i am not a huge fan of SF but i think they make good music. i jsut think its ever so sad that people take time out of their lives to bash on something that doesn't even directly effect them. i mean seriously. stop bashing people and sticking labels on people and the music. labels are for food cans!!!! not people or music. i mean seriously. let it go. if you don't like them.. then its ok just say " i don't like them" you don't have to go off on them. alright... i think i am done.. thank you

Bingo. Somebody give this man a medal.

my opinion of their personalties is what kills them with me even if the music turns out to be amazing i will still hate them and i refuse to support them in anyway

[MaybeOneDay]

Fair enough, thats your opinion. But personally, I don't think personalities should affect the way a person views the band. You can dislike the members in the band all you want, but I think your views of the band has made you dislike the music more than you probably would of if you knew nothing about them. But thats just my take on it.

[Coronary Parasite]

you're right. but as for me, if i can't connect with the person writing the music, then it's hollow and i'm disinterested.

[MaybeOneDay]

you're right. but as for me, if i can't connect with the person writing the music, then it's hollow and i'm disinterested.
Fair enough.

[KarolaBloch]

you deserve a medal too Brandon. i think me and you are the only ones with such lodgic.

[SilverStar89]

Senses Fail isnt the best band that is out there and I think that is fair enough to say. But there are bands that are a lot worse than they are and they deserve some credit just for putting themselves out there even if their personalities suck. If they have crappy rhyming lyrics who really cares. Its just their form of self expression and everyone has a right to do that in there individual way. I dont think they are that bad. But they arent my favorites. Everyone has an opnion about them, good or bad. So whatever, I dont think they are worth arguing over.

[MaybeOneDay]

you deserve a medal too Brandon. i think me and you are the only ones with such lodgic.
I wouldn't doubt it. But, thanks.

[em0]

I wouldn't doubt it. But, thanks.

...you guys are just supporting what i said in the first place...

[still_life]

This band brings teh suck.

[MaybeOneDay]

...you guys are just supporting what i said in the first place...
In a way, yes. In a different sense though.

[boysdontcry]

This band brings teh suck.
that's putting it mildly.

[SonnyPunk]

The only thing they have going for them is the drummer...he has talent. But whose gonna listen to something just for the drumming? The music is laughable...if they were assholes who wrote good music thats different...but they arent. They actually punched someone who bought a ticket to one of their shows in the face...wtf. I dont care how much of a prick the kid was...you dont fight your fans.

[13th hour]

^^^^
I agree.

[babyblue]

That fan jumped on stage and stole some equipment. That's all I know wasn't there.

[Trainsaw]

i don't agree with punching fans but i guess if someone is trying to steal your shit you have to stop them somehow.

[babyblue]

He didn't try, he did steal it, I don't think they got it back. About a 100.00 worth

[SonnyPunk]

That fan jumped on stage and stole some equipment. That's all I know wasn't there.

Thats not true...I read the statement Buddy made about it. He said some kid was throwing water at their guitar tech or something like that. The fan was just being a prick...and after the show Dave saw the kid and he punched him in the face.

[babyblue]

Trust me on this one that's partly what happened. It was Dave's equipment, I beleive he had to buy a new one.

[SonnyPunk]

He didn't try, he did steal it, I don't think they got it back. About a 100.00 worth

That makes no sense...if you steal equipment you'd be arrested. How the hell would he get away with it in a packed show like that? Especially if the band saw the kid afterwards and attacked him. Would he hide the music equipment up his rectum? I doubt it

[babyblue]

Maybe can not answer that one. Sorry.

[Trainsaw]

if he was just throwing water on the guitar tech then they shouldn't have beat his ass, the guitar tech guy should have beat his ass since the guy was throwing water on him.

[13th hour]

From what I heard, the kid was just throwing water. But if the kid did steal something, they had every right to beat his ass. If some kid started fucking with my bass at one of my shows... imminent ass beating.

[ThriftWhore]

He was throwing water at the tech, and then when Dave went over to check out what was happening, he got punched in the face by the fan. He kept playing though.

After the show, Dave beat the kid down.

[Trainsaw]

There's 3 stories, don't know which to believe.

[maybe_mayhem]

Ok here's my take on the band. When their ep came out, I loved them. They were easily one of my favorite bands and I supported them all the way. But today my friend burned me their full length and after listening to it, i wondered what happened to the band i so loved. Let it enfold you is by far one of the worst attempts at emo core or whatever you want to call it. It just sounds like they are trying way too hard, especially with the screaming. Not only that but the screaming sounds misplaced on pretty much every song. To say the least i was very VERY dissapointed and let down.

[martini kisses]

ThriftWhore is absolutely right, the fan throw the first punch and Dave waited until after the show to punch him back. Give the CD another listen to it will grow on you and don't categorize it, it's just music.

[The Bled 13]

AND this is how rumors get started..

[Coronary Parasite]

AND this is how rumors get started..
oh my god i just read all that and you are dead on..."i heard this" "no! i was there!". wow.

[Trainsaw]

AND this is how rumors get started..

exactly

[OctoberNights]

okay, this is all i have to say...

DTR is over rated...they may treat their bands well but in the end they "sell them out" or what ever you want to call it, which makes those bands lose true fans that were there from the beginning...maybe thats just my opinion...

and this has been said before but senses fail are assholes...at shows they just walk around like theyre better than everyone there and should be considered royalty...theyre not down to earth with their fans...atleast from my experiences

[MaybeOneDay]

Drive-Thru doesn't "sell" any bands out. If the band wants to "sell out" (and that is the stupidest fucking term ever) they choose to do it on their own free will.

[richter915]

all I have to say is...when a band sings about shooting five year old kids at country clubs...they are clearly the most talented writers in the world (note the sarcasm)

[Coronary Parasite]

Oh right, and Blink 182 talking about Fucking Dogs in the ass is PURE genious.

Asshole.

(ps. i found out he liked blink in his profile)

[Coronary Parasite]

please don't be mean to richter :(

Did he ever say that Blink 182 were lyrical genius? Good try though.

[aurora]

please don't be mean to richter :(
Haha. Yeah! I <3 Richter.

[richter915]

oh don't get me wrong...I KNOW blink have some of the worst lyrics out there...I do not enjoy much of it...but I like how they bring in humor to their music cause they advocate just having fun...sorry they're not serious enough to "eat your heart out"...hah....

[Coronary Parasite]

and come on, you're defending SF...come on.
haha that's all you need to say

[richter915]

ya I edited my post big time...heh...:: dance dance::

Yeah, like....fuck, couldn't they of just made that a joke song or something ?

Oh wait, it is a joke song. Understand ? Good. Now shut up.

[The Bled 13]

What the fuck is selling out? And if your going to bash Blink 182 your going to have to bash almost ever single band you probably listen to moron because almost every band was / is some way influenced from Blink 182. Fucking bash Good Charlotte if you have to, beacause THEY deserve it.

[The Bled 13]

And your icon is Famous Stars and Straps or whatever .. Now why would you have that, when Blink 182 wears that clothing, that doesn't make ANY sense..

[neverselected]

Where can i download their full length?

[MaybeOneDay]

Haha, not only do they wear it, but their drummer owns the company.

[Trainsaw]

what the hell went on in here while i was gone?

[13th hour]

this is getting ridiculous.

[The Bled 13]

Haha, not only do they wear it, but their drummer owns the company.

Yeah well that is how it usually works, the kid is also so claimed "middle man" in the political section and but feeds biased information and claims that biased is wrong. It .. makes .. no .. sense.

[Alex Djaferis]

Where can i download their full length?

id like to know too...

[Trainsaw]

i got it off mIRC, its not as bad as everyone's making it out to be, i think its just the whole AP vs SF thing got overblown and people are trashing them because of that. The lyrics are better than on the e.p.

[young@hopeless]

kazaa...everything can be acquired at kazaa...or winmax

[Trainsaw]

kazaa...everything can be acquired at kazaa...or winmax

wrong, wrong, wrong. Limewire is where its at. If you get pro (which i have FREE) you can directly connect and get an insane dl rate. But they don't have "broken mp3's" on limewire. Its also catching on so its getting bigger

[Love As Arson]

Such a horrible band. They are music for kids who want to be hardcore but don't like hardcore at all. Listen to the real music instead of this band that is doing a horrible job trying to emulate it.

[saosinteam]

okay, my opinions:

- senses fail sucks horribly.
- not only is the EP shit, and no matter what previous kids have said, the full length is JUST AS SHITTY.
- they try to be hardcore. they're not. their lame attempts are just laughable.
- they are cocks. who like to brag about how much merch they sell.
- buddy is one of the worst "writers", with a horrible voice.

[The Bled 13]

Senses Fail ARE hardcore and your just a fucking idiot if you don't believe it. They are influenced by Linkin Park who are Experimental Noise / Hardcore / Grindcore - Emo with Metal Riffs. MWAHAHAHA, now you can't disagree becasue I know more than you do!!!


No I'm just kidding, but who do I remind you all of... come on, you know who it is!
