2/1/2007 6:18:31 PM

madman

2/1/2007 6:25:03 PM

Frogstomp was a good album

2/1/2007 6:25:32 PM

both neon ballroom and diorama are incredible....new single sounds pretty good.

2/1/2007 6:29:42 PM

Young Modern is amazing...which is the new album.

2/1/2007 9:16:58 PM

leak!

i miss mid 90s Silverchair. They're like an entirely different band now.

I loved Neon Ballroom when I was younger, but this is weird.

2/2/2007 12:59:30 AM

yea this shit is def. not at all like their old stuff (ie neon ballroom) seems like they made something radio ready that the general public would like, def has nothing on anna's song or anthem

2/2/2007 1:50:10 AM

theyre like the u2 of australia

biggest band ever there so of course they got to the point of playing mainstream radio stuff

2/2/2007 2:45:14 AM

It's mainstream for Australia, but not for the U.S. ...Anthem and Ana's Song were played on the radio/MTV here ridiculously... The last album Diorama was lucky to even get heard on the background music of HBO commercials... So this album is a lot different and I think that it sounds really awesome. Their music has changed and matured throughout each album they've made. It's all lead up to this.

2/2/2007 6:49:41 AM

this kinda makes me feel really old to have people talking about thier "old stuff" as Neon Ballroom, and "when they were younger"..

what about freakshow or frogstomp?

thats the old stuff.

2/2/2007 7:15:13 AM

Okay gramps, don't blame me for not listening to every one of their albums.

2/2/2007 7:37:53 AM

2/2/2007 8:32:04 AM

of course they're different now.... they were freaking 15 and 16 when frogstomp came out.

2/2/2007 10:40:28 AM

Frogstomp rocked

i could never get into any of their stuff after that

glad to see they are still around

2/2/2007 1:20:53 PM

2/2/2007 1:23:41 PM

I was never really into them. I have frogstomp somewhere...but never listen to it anymore.

2/2/2007 3:01:11 PM

'tomorrow' was a guilty pleasure of mine, and i even bought the album because of it, but i've always thought they were a pretty terrible band. i just couldn't get into them.

Stucky I can forgive you for this...

2/2/2007 4:18:57 PM

i cant believe this is them.

this sounds like some shit my dad would love



p.s. i love this song. im buying beer right now so i can play it on repeat drunk.

2/2/2007 4:28:13 PM

2/2/2007 4:34:46 PM

Good god, they suck. Why do we have a thread about this band again?

YOURE GOING TEH WAY TOOOO FATTBOY

FATTTBOYYY!

EEEEEUAAAAAUH Haaaaaa- ah. *duhh duhh duhh dun duhh duhh duh dun duh duh*

2/2/2007 4:44:44 PM

This song makes me want to go paint a fence or something productive

agreed

2/2/2007 7:52:19 PM

not even the next cd?

as far as rocking out, i think theyve gone downhill every cd since the 2nd. i still love them but its a different type of music than what they did in the 90s

2/2/2007 8:48:46 PM

who cares. you have to be insecure as hell not to love this song.

2/2/2007 9:14:56 PM

this shit was cool for a couple hours in high school

2/2/2007 9:34:55 PM

when did neon ballroom become their "old stuff"? hah. it's kinda funny that people think this is "weird" and not like their "old stuff" (neon hah). this song is not that big of a departure from diorama or neon ballroom. this song is decent enough for me to check out the rest of the album.

i wish they would reissue Live from Faraway Stables. i hate that i didn't get that when i had the chance.

2/2/2007 10:56:20 PM

wtf happened to fucking silverchair?!?!?!

i think i need to go wash my ears out with their GOOD stuff.

2/3/2007 1:48:32 AM

you must have slept through neon ballroom and diorama

2/3/2007 1:54:04 AM

not bad

2/3/2007 3:02:31 AM

pop-y pussy rock

if this is is indicative of silverchair direction nowadays, im glad i left them behind long ago

2/3/2007 4:30:01 AM

You're so metal and that's why I dig you...

2/3/2007 6:49:52 AM

2/3/2007 5:06:26 PM

the doods facial hair is beyond lame

2/3/2007 5:19:53 PM

he's so hot... you stop that!

2/3/2007 7:43:47 PM

i bet you like Savage Garden too.

2/3/2007 7:47:08 PM

ew no...

2/3/2007 7:52:53 PM

ITS THE SAME BAND
