Members p00n Posted February 1, 2007 Members Share Posted February 1, 2007 Borrowed Beautiful Letdown, Nothing is Sound, and Oh! Gravity from a friend. IMO this band has some gems, especially on Nothing is Sound. People bash mainstream rock, I personally dislike most radio hits but once in a while a mainstream band makes pretty awesome music. Thumbs up Switchfoot. Great tone too, and laden with tasteful use of effects. Any idea what amps they're using? I'm thinking Rectifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of all the mainstream bull{censored}, they are definitely okay. I don't love them, though. My sister does, so I hear them often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mistersuperfly Posted February 1, 2007 Members Share Posted February 1, 2007 Good stuff, the singer uses an AC30, the lead an Orange, and the rhythm uses a London 65. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably for the oh gravity album, tones are quite different from their harder rock stuff on the other albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple weeks ago I went to church after having not gone for a while; they were trying to illustrate a point about racism and played a Montgomery Gentry video... I stood up and walked out...

Members gorebuc Posted February 1, 2007 Members Share Posted February 1, 2007 The thing with Switchfoot is this: the albums are alot of fun for about 5 days, then you get so sick of them and their catchy hooks you never listen to them again. That and I'm extremely bitter towards almost anything produced by America's Christian subculture because of my youth group experience and the Baptist college I go to.
