The release has been eagerly awaited by Matchbox Twenty's enormous fan base, composed of American record buyers who have a limited interest in music but enjoy the act of shopping

"Finally, after running them through about two dozen filters, we managed to get that 'plastic spork hitting mashed potatoes' sound we were after."

that's great[/quote]

"There was a similar problem, band members said, with the guitar solos, some of which contained trace elements of what musicians call "passion."

haha :lol:

Fucking great :lol:

Although I still think DMB beats them for blandness.

DMB acutally has a Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavour.

I bet it tastes like taupe.

Bahahahahaha!

Actually, the DMB ice cream's really good. :lol:

I agree entirely about the band, though.

But, anyway... this article rocks. :lol:

Ahh, The Onion.

Thanks for posting, that was great! I actually liked their first album a lot. However, their second was fair at best and (although those are the only two I own) I think they've gone downhill from there.

I like em. I can see how some would call them bland. But so are alot of bands.

I had their first CD, Yourself or Someone Like You, and I thought it was really good! But then again, I was 12. I think I still have it somewhere. i liked that album, but I haven't heard any of their others, so I can't really say.
That article seems to describe a lot of bands though. sad.

Anybody heard "I Can't Stand The Dave Matthews Band" by Donkey Punch? :lol:

fuckin' awesome. Lyrics:

I can't stand listening to the Dave Matthews Band
I think they're bland
But everyone else thinks they're the fucking shit!

I can't stand listening to the Dave Matthews Band
I can't understand
Why everyone likes them more than they like my band

:lol:

Better anti-DMB song...

Burn Kate - This Is Why I Hate Dave Matthews

:mrgreen:

Though, it's not so much anti-DMB in the musical sense. :lol:

But still.

yeah Matchbox got really boring, and i agree i never got what was so cool about Dave Mathews Band, sure he can write some above par lyrics, and it's good folky music. But there's thosands of people that shit their pants every time Dave farts into a microphone. Can someone explain, maybe i'm not hearing the right stuff.
