<{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->I couldn't believe my eyes when I got an e-mail saying they were playing the Bradley Center in Milwaukee. Seems like they went from a band playing clubs to playing arenas almost overnight.
I loved their first two albums, the 3rd one was ok, and the last one was pretty bad.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Their 3rd was definitely a major shift for them, but I thought it was still a solid rock album. This last one could have been written and recorded by Daughtry. Fucking terrible arena pop music.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I don't know, they kind of lost me on the 3rd album, which got too far away from the southern, bluesy stuff that I really liked on the first two.
Now they are trying to sound too much like a bad version (or recent version) of U2.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
yeah the first song on the third album turned me off right away.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Insanity. I fucking LOVE that song.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
totally agree. "knocked up" was the song that got me listening to them. i actually like the newest one, but i admit to not being familiar with their earlier stuff.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I like that song and the album as well, and I've been a fan for years. It was different for me, but still good. My only problem with some of the songs on their 3rd album is that they're drag a little. With a little editing, those songs would be every bit as good as their previous material.
