(Starpulse) Sad Staind ready to inflict us with the aptly-named new album "The Illusion of Progress." Also set to open for Nickelback this summer, it should prove to be a double-bill sadder than staring at a baby's coffin for an hour and a half   (starpulse.com) divider line 33

It's been awhile, since I've gone and f*cked things up just like you knew I would.

Wow. That's a terrible bill.

They're going to sell out. Again.

Great headline, shame about the Reality.

It's like a Doppler Effect of suck, you can hear coming and going.

White, vacuous, rich, whiny pieces of shiat with nothing whatsoever to say... where can i get a ticket?

That's pretty f*cking sad, when all is said and done.

/thoroughly enjoyed Break the Cycle

throw in Disturbed and it was the only concert ive ever walked out of

Especially a Juggalo baby's coffin.

I saw them once. At a festival, they were in between the Disturbed, and the headliner Velvet Revolver.

VR? Great live band. Plenty of energy, and watching Slash play is awesome.
Disturbed? Farking INCREDIBLE. Draimin has so much energy.

Staind? Flat. No emotion. Bland. I could have napped through it and not missed anything interesting.

If a coma had a soundtrack, it would sound like Staind.

If I were Staind, I'd want to open for Proteen Gets Out Proteen or Steamin' Mad @ Dirt.

That would be edgy and spingtime frizesh at the same time.

Oh lordy, +1 all the way around.

I hate that rock ballads make money. Mudshovel was actually a good song. After that...

Came here to say that.

Staring at a baby's coffin just makes me hungry.

You wanna know what the problem with nu-metal is, both lyrically and musically? Take the song "Angry Chair" by Alice in Chains, and then take out the chorus. Nu-metal leaves out the "I don't mind", and that's what made the whole thing work in the first place.

 
mediaho 2008-06-24 10:02:03 PM  
I kinda liked Staind's first album. Then they hit on that "It's Been a While" formula and never came back.

 
EL_FABREZ 2008-06-24 10:04:01 PM  
Staind and Nickelback are still recording?! I hope Limp Bizkit doesn't get any ideas.

 
grim_and_frostbitten 2008-06-24 10:16:49 PM  
oh gee! is this one of those threads where we all get to look cool and act all "counter-culture" and say "Nickelback sucks"?!?!

nickelback is to music what donkey-on-orangutan rape is to sex. yeah, i know what you're thinking. it sounds AWESOME. well, it isn't. it just isn't.

Seriously. Because this is what happens when they get ideas. Not good. (new window)

Nice headline, subby. It's funny because it's true.

 
Captbookbag 2008-06-24 11:56:39 PM  
From wikipedia: "The band's name originates from the nickel in change that band member Mike Kroeger gave customers at his Starbucks job- he would frequently say, "Here's your nickel back"."

...

 
luckybastard 2008-06-25 12:23:00 AM  
I really laughed at the headline.

/dead baby jokes are awesomely bad

 
destitute college kid 2008-06-25 12:51:55 AM  
Every band mentioned in this thread so far is pretty terrible.

Yes, including Alice in Chains.

 
cubsfan07 2008-06-25 12:58:32 AM  
Aaron Lewis should have killed himself a long time ago, but it's probably a good thing he didn't because he'd be like some poor man's version of Kurt Cobain.

GAhahah! I read the description and totally thought it was serious. Then it sounded like my friend playing in his bedroom when we were in 8th grade. That was awesome.

You're dead to me.

 
MetalGator 2008-06-25 07:07:35 AM  
Staind were good when they played angry music, god damn Fred Durst. Met the band way back in 2001, pretty cool guys.

Oh yea and college kid is just resident Music tab douche bag. Never seen him contribute anything to a conversation, just always says the band(s) being discussed suck. I'm sure he gets a real rush out of doing that while posting from Starbucks.

Best comment. EVAR.

murphy_31: I hate that rock ballads make money. Mudshovel was actually a good song. After that...

Dysfunction was a great album for it's time. Listening to it now, though, makes my ears bleed more than the "Rejected" video's cloud's anus.

Now, now. I'm a son of a biatch, not a douchebag. And I'm a son of a biatch on a lot of other tabs, too.

 
noheadphones 2008-06-25 10:54:38 AM  
oh Christ, Staind sucks.

 
Jedekai 2008-06-25 02:01:24 PM  
That is the first headline I ACTUALLY laughed at in three months.

/If I could give you a +1 you would have it by now, but I don't have a credit card, so very sorry.

I like some of Aaron Lewis's acoustic covers. There, I said it.
