Excellent!

Ya know, it doesn't surprise me that CC would dig SC. Something about his song structures is a bit of a similar sensibility. (betcha can't say that six times fast ;))

I'll save EQ the trouble:

CC: I'm a huge Beatles fan, so I gravitate toward heavily textured songs where it's clear there was careful attention paid to production. I'm a sucker for an amazing winding guitar line and a killer rhythm section with a drummer that suddenly makes you bounce. As a sidenote, there's never been a better time to be an amazing drummer. Drum loops are cool, but there are limitations. Nothing can replace a great live drummer. I've been listening to a lot of Police albums lately, and Stewart Copeland will blow your mind. He's one of the last superstar drummers. If you hear one piece of his kit — a hi-hat, a snare, whatever — you know it's him. And there's just not a lot of guys like that out there today.



I freakin' love Chris Cornell's voice. One of the best singers out there.
READY THE BLADE!

Thanks for posting this, TOWOS.

Superstar drummer indeed.
SC-There are a few crazy people on this planet. Sure sign of that is that they kinda like my music

I have nver been a huge CC fan but enjoy listening to his stuff.
But when I have heard and read interviews he seems like a very cool guy.

Thanks for posting!

Oh god. Do I have CC stories! He's awesome. Truly truly awesome.

However, I have to say, I HATE this newest album. HATE it. Worse than nails on a chalkboard!

And no, his appreciation of SC doesn't surprise me AT ALL.

Meg, are you actually Trent Reznor in disguise? :lol:

*explanation - Trent has Twittered that CC's album is so bad it made him (Trent) uncomfortable (or was it embarassed)*

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

No, I didn't go from drugs to 'roids!

*no explanation required*

Have you heard that timbaland mess EQ? If you have, I think you'd have to agree. I was embarassed for him.
Though I think it may have been the greatest commercial success so far.

UH, I understand dislike for his last album (Euphoria Morning was amazing, though), but if there is one person who STFU is Trent Reznor.... :twisted:

New album peaked on the Billboard 200 at #10 on March 28, 2009, higher than his other two solo albums peaked :shock:
Should have said earlier enjoy listening to him except the new stuff.

Guess Hot Producer + Buzz and Press because you are working with Hot Producer = Album Sales!

Maybe his next project he could get the Maestro and maybe Tom Morello on guitar?

Meg, can you put this together? :wink: :wink: :lol:

Gotta say that Silversun Pickup's new CD "Swoon" is currently one of my favorite CD's released this year (it's in a close race with "Kingdom of Rust" from Doves who I'll be seeing at the 9:30 club in DC in a few weeks WOOOOO!!!!) and Panic Switch is one of my favorite songs of that CD.

I gotta agree with you Conroy. I HATED Silversun Pickup previously. I thought Lazy Eye was the most monotonous song ever. But Panic Switch really rocks. WHOOOOOO!!!

Mrs. EQ was stunned when she found out the lead singer is a guy, though.

Hope his betrothed doesn't plan on wearing high heels to the ceremony....

You guys convinced me. I was debating getting the new Silversun Pickups since I was never over the top about them but LOVE the new song. I will have to get their new album.
