deaths_friend Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 i've spent much of my christmas day watching episodes of Seinfeld and i saw that episode about Festivus, which is a way of celebrating the holidays without the usual gift giving and family commitments that come with it. Part of the celebration includes the "Airing of Grievances" where you tell everyone things and people who have disappointed you that year. i thought we could celebrate the day (which is typically december 23) world of music style by listing the bands/artists who have let you down this year. now i hate to create any negativity around here but i thought this would be interesting. maybe their new album wasnt as good as you expected or you saw them live and they were crap or they collaborated with an artist you really hate. here is my list Klaxons John Butler Trio Birds of Tokyo The Dead Weather MGMT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh42 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Turn on the Bright Lights is just amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Surfer Blood. There was a bit of hype for them here, and I checked them out. I actually found it to be a bit boring. :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauiwi Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Are you kiddin me jamie? klaxons is amazing. MGMT non-conformist. I'd say Interpol were poor, as well as the courteeners, Paul smith (Maximo park lead singer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Who in this thread said Klaxons wasn't amazing? :wtf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh42 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Oh hahaha sorry I'm just retarded and I barely read the first post. Klaxons' new album is amazing! Perhaps the best album of the year for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMagpie Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 i thought interpol's 4th album wasnt too bad but it is easily their worst. I was hoping it would at least be better than our love to admire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the best album of the year for me. i think the klaxons and mgmt let me down for the same reasons. both produced incredible indie anthems on their debuts and i expected more of them on their follow ups. instead the new albums felt a little drawn out with the odd great moment. im not saying they were bad albums, i enjoyed both but they both paled in comparisons to their debut efforts.

Pretty hard to produce another mercury-prize winning masterpiece lol but I understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crests Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I thought I would like Hurts cause everyone was raving on about them and it sounded like something I would love and such, but I'm listening to them now and I don't. :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WUT. D: Nah, it's fine. It's just that I'm one of those people that love them. :tongue: In my mind, they're one of the most legit pop groups I've ever heard. oh i forgot Linkin Park. their new album is probably the worst album i have heard this year. It seems that their post-Meteora stuff keeps spiralling downward. I liked them a lot better when they weren't so pop-ish. We did the feats of strength at my house.
