It would explain the similarities in their fanatical fanboyism. Besides, it has to be true. Neither of them yet have to dispute the claim! banana.gif banana.gif banana.gif

They don't want to consider it an album because it's a cocksucking embarrassment. The two outtakes are catchy but not nearly as good as Live's other outtakes, and the concert tracks are not only not good but they'd already been formally released.


Agreed.

What I laugh about even more is Ed doing interviews saying he's making the music for the fans, it's what THEY want to hear apparently.

To be quite honest, if he believes in what he's saying truthfully, this band is finished. I'm appalled that a band like this can write 3 minute fluff tunes, void of bridges, valid guitar work or anything else musically relevant, and actually believe it's even half way decent.

BOP and SFBM indicate to me one of three things. They've gotten lazy, just don't care or they just haven't a clue anymore. I'm just indisbelief that a band as good as this, could make V, Bop and SFBM in succession after makking TC, SS and TDTH right beforehand. Utterly mind boggling.

Yeah, it is mind boggling. Four fucking epic albums, and then three fucking embarrassments. At least Ed can still write a catchy tune, but the last three albums' melodies would have been much better off as commercial jingles.

As for writing "what the fans want," I have to say I actually think he's right. Unfortunately, the fans he's referring to number about 500 globally and they're all approaching menopause faster than Hoodie approaches tranny hookers. The fan base now really is a joke. I'm sincerely embarrassed to go to their shows anymore because at 23 years old I feel like the youngest person in the crowd, and I am. They're washed up.
