It was more a comment on how utterly generic and banal the songs are, not in specific sounds/melodies, etc.

"Elsewhere, Our Lady Peace spend Burn Burn aping Coldplay and U2. "Never Get Over You" and "The End Is Where We Being" sound particularly like Chris Martin and company. "

I wouldn't take a review serious from people who can;t spell.

aping? The end is where we being?

I don't know if OLP has a legitimately bad song on any of their first four albums.

Burn, Burn has two: White Flags is awful and All You Did is their worst song ever.

And I still can't tell the difference between ...

So I'm a longtime OLP fan that really expanded my musical tastes in the last five or so years, and of course I had to listen to the new album anyway. I haven't read any of the reviews or general impressions here, so these are pretty unaffected by anything but my own ears.

I'm not going to go in ...

Ducking my head in for news.

I wish I hadn't. Ugh.

I think the rickroll song is legitimately a better song than The Right Stuff.

Well, forget about OLP playing "Whatever" as a tribute to Benoit, if the news that he murdered his family turns out to be true.

Amazing how I went from very sad to outrageously disgusted in 30 seconds.

What songs were aired from this broadcast? I should grab it.

I'd like to relive some of OLP live. Last time I watched or saw anything of the sort was when I saw them in Philly in September, and I had a fucking great time at that show. The boys owned.

This just got me thinking:

Remember when the ancient 2003 (!) Christmas greeting came out and the then titled "Don't Ask Why" was on it, and how excited we were for the song, that we wouldn't hear for another two years?

OSNAP!

I do like what OLP did with some of HIPT, and I think it does show that they are "evolving" in sorts. OLP has always been a pop-alt band that's easy and fun to listen to without being boring and trite, and I respect them for that. They aren't revolutionary or music-scene-changing, just fun and ...

What do you think of HIPT after letting it sink in a little bit?

Do you think OLP's back? Do you think they never left? Do you think they aren't quite back yet but optimistic for the next album/tour?

Me personally, I like it quite a bit more than Gravity but it still feels a little distant from ...

I still think OLP should do like a "documenta-video" detailing the crisis in Darfur with Al Genina playing. It could kinda be like the Thief video, for a good cause.

I personally think that could work really, really nicely.

I think HIPT can pick up some major steam if they start touring soon.

Christ, no wonder HIPT isn't selling well.

What the hell ARE they doing?

Wow, that setlist is much better than the other DVD we have

They should have done Al Genina.

But this confirms to me that A/L/S is the best damned song this band has written since TWF.

Sorry or Annie

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH. Slow down people.

Annie.

I'll repost mine:
"Made of Steel" or "Where Are You".

Where Are You by far.

Starseed (Turner) or Starseed (Mazur)?

If You Believe.

World on a String or All For You?

I always associated Naveed with coping with a suicide, even if that's not what it's about.

It's cool to get your own meanings out of songs.
