Bands that can never reach their peak again
Bands that can never reach their peak again
What peak exactly did they ever reach?
You're right, having one decent song was indeed a huge peak for FTP.
I disagree, while broken jaw is clearly on another level some of their other tracks are still alright
arcade fire
rip in peace
sorry amigo I was trying to be edgy and contrarian.
I actually quite enjoyed that album.
Supermodel was a great album. Hopefully the current album is just some sort writer's block the band went through.
It really sound like they're trying to copy new Maroon 5
ono
MGMT
that being Congratulations, right?
...
new album was great though...
SHC is in the top 3 songs of their discography
Wilco obviously
What is the appeal of this album? (Honest question)
Any band where the main talent dies and they keep making albums
this
I'm not But yeah
Great songwriting and great production, imo. Like any of the greatest songwriting-focused albums, they manage to extract a lot out of relatively simple chord progressions. What happens in the background is often just as interesting if not more than what's happening in the foreground in a lot of tracks.
Phoenix and Franz Ferdinand
I agree that's their best by far, but I think they can hit that peak again. They're obviously very talented songwriters, it will just take a similar circumstance and environment to the one Congratulations was created in.
Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix had some fucking top notch pop songwriting in it.
...
Megadeth
Just pretty much every band/artist from that time
As much as I love Metallica, they won't ever reach their peak again
Blur (peak album - 13); they peaked before Gorillaz started (peak album - Demon Days)
...
...
...
Nothing he's done before or after has come close
...
the peak being Chapel of the Chimes, Knife Play and A Promise
Metallica
Yes
No
Yes
Very wrong
Franz Ferdinand arguably reached their peak twice since their debut, I can see they doing it again desu
Yes but that's not their peak
Yeah, probably. They haven't got much left to prove anyway.
...
Fabulous Muscles and La Foret are also really good. La Foret may actually be my favorite among those. Don't care for much after that besides Always, but Wondering was really good and gives me hope.
i thought that supermodel was fucking amazing. almost makes torches look weak in comparison. but yeah, sacred hearts club can go fuck off.
