================================================ Subject: Re: Bullets? From: "Tara" To: Date: Sat 20 Oct 2001 14:51:47 -0400 ================================================ Okay, here are my thoughts... The beginning of the song, I thought the streaming was messing up at first because of the background... distortion? (First word that came to mind was "noise" though). Upon further listening, at a higher volume, I noticed that the background goes from one side to the other (speakers), and that's kind of neat... bet it'd be really "trippy" (as my younger sister says) to listen to it in my car. Then when the talking stops, it reminds me of Rage (or even Beastie Boys, or a group like that) because it's yelling, not singing (imo), plus with the heavy guitar playing right then... I personally don't really care for the "yelling and screaming" style of music. It just doesn't seem like Creed at all, with the exception of a couple of parts. That's probably why I don't care for it much - it's just so different from anything I would have expected from Creed. I like the part that starts at 2:30... where Scott is actually singing, not yelling. I don't know what I think of the lyrics themselves yet, but overall, I don't care much for the sound of the song. (When they said "heavier", I was thinking more along the lines of "What If", which I really like the sound of). My 15 year old sister, who's also a fan, doesn't really like this song either. Her exact words were "it sounds like it came from a first album or something... inexperienced, amateurish". (For reference, she also likes MOP better than HC). Anyway, that's just my (and my sister's) opinion... I'm hoping the next release will be something more to my liking (though also not a clone of prior work, though that doesn't seem like it'll be a problem).
