A couple of my local 80's band mates went too hit it in Cali in the late 80's and hooked up with Tony Palermo whom just so happens too play drums for Roach.

i think they are a godd band; they can play. i bet they are really into 80s metal.

 

but their desire to hold on to the current trend is amazingly revolting. that instant switch from a reserved, "bare bones", almost suicidal nu metal image to make up, nail polish and all the flamboyant {censored} is.. laughable.

Is the second album the one with the Forever song? They went from angry to emo to what after that?


I don't have the M+ channel anymore.
:o

 

No, it's the one with the song She loves me not. And yes, it's after that album that they (mainly the singer and guitar player) adopted a more effeminate look and started to write mellow songs. They still remain a good live band nonetheless. I saw them when The Paramour Sessions came out and, although I was bored during half the set, they still gave a solid performance.

the breakthrough disc for them with the singer who ODed sounded OK for the genre at that time. This new stuff sounds like linkin park WTF. Never my fave type of rock but at least it has guitars in it even if it lacks nuts.

I saw them in the early 90's at a frickin community center filled with pre-teens. You could tell that they had stage presence, but I was weirded out by all the little kids and left for the bar down the street. I went on the recommendation of one of their friends. I wasn't real thrilled with the whole thing at the time, but about a year later they had their first big single so it was kind of cool. I never see young up and coming talent.
