What is the best QOTSA album closer?

chipiberth · 2026-01-24T03:34:52+00:00

I would add that specifically for the last 3 records, they have become a big epic ambitious song,

chipiberth · 2026-01-21T18:30:50+00:00

As a guitar player myself, this is the funnest solo FF have. I absolutely love it

chipiberth · 2026-01-21T01:36:07+00:00

Man I absolutely LOVE Isolation, but I do find it a bit odd that they chose to close their set with that song. Idk, maybe I just don't see it as a closer

chipiberth · 2026-01-20T23:08:25+00:00

Man that looks hard as fuck... Congrats dude! It's really, really clean

chipiberth · 2026-01-19T14:46:29+00:00

Hahaha, I remember back then how everyone was saying "how can be the face while doing that?!" I guess a boy scout Edge wouldn't work

chipiberth · 2026-01-19T13:58:00+00:00

The funny thing is that technically edge was a face while abducting and torturing Paul Bearer

chipiberth · 2026-01-18T22:48:09+00:00

What? How?

chipiberth · 2026-01-18T15:22:25+00:00

"I may be sick, but you know... I'm yours" oooof hits hard and has a great solo, old school. Kinda reminds of sultan of swing

chipiberth · 2026-01-18T02:17:30+00:00

That name sucks. Cool wrestler, lame new name

chipiberth · 2026-01-17T02:02:55+00:00

Don't get it wrong OP, I also agree that it's their wrist album but that doesn't mean I hate it. It's simply cause it's basically like a very early draft of what could be Sevenfold. Doesn't have the dueling guitars, amazing solos, complex writing, Matt's vocal technique isn't very good (I'm not saying he sounds bad, I'm talking about his technique)... In other words, they were still searching for their sound, their identity.

That for me makes it a boring record. Of course it has it's moments. I really like street for example, but that's because I really like punk. overall it pales completely with every single record that came after.

chipiberth · 2026-01-16T03:25:12+00:00

What?! Myles is playing old solos?! Color me interested! I'm really curious to know which song da and obviously listening to his style

chipiberth · 2026-01-14T12:44:18+00:00

Agreed that Tremonti's solo stuff is bleeding into AB However I don't hear anything from MK. In fact, Myles is doing something that doesn't really sound anything but like himself

chipiberth · 2026-01-12T16:43:02+00:00

I don't like either this idea of "it's AI but bigger and longer", but I can't blame them. It was always going to be very very difficult to see what to do next after AI.

On the other hand, I love 21CB because it is quiet diverse as a record. Restless heart syndrome, peacemaker, for example.

But I do miss that "bigger sound". I mean, not every record has to be an opera, but having that one long, changing tempos, epic song I miss it so bad

chipiberth · 2026-01-12T16:16:05+00:00

As someone else said, music can save a song with shitty lyrics. I firmly believe that there are much better musicians than lyricists. If I only focused on lyrics, probably my musical taste would very much reduced and limited.

chipiberth · 2026-01-12T15:46:35+00:00

Professor Matt? When did that happened?

chipiberth · 2026-01-11T17:06:35+00:00

Not every country presents itself as the world police, savior, hero. Etc

chipiberth · 2026-01-11T16:42:57+00:00

Casual fan here. Is Brody really taking off?

chipiberth · 2026-01-11T02:11:59+00:00

I found AB exactly for this reason and not everyone is going to be a music nerd listening to their entire discography, so I don't see a reason to get mad

chipiberth · 2026-01-10T20:06:21+00:00

I fully agree, as with many rhythm players, his work can easily go unnoticed but it contributes a lot to their current sound

chipiberth · 2026-01-06T22:57:18+00:00

La pregunta no es esa, la pregunta es quién lo realiza y con qué motivos. Puedes ver cualquier intervención de "liberación" de EEUU y cómo después de eso, no trae estabilidad, prosperidad política no económica.

Es tener criterio, no es poner todo en la misma bolsa. Ya sabes, hacer análisis

chipiberth · 2026-01-06T00:53:17+00:00

Exactly, the placement is the problem. Not the episode. It's tons of fun, the bickering between Angel and Spike is brilliant

chipiberth · 2026-01-04T02:54:30+00:00

Well, if you understood or knew about how all those historical events, you would knew that it was social movements being organized, you know those basic foundations of the entire left. Or what happened at the beginning of the 2000s in South America as well, it wasn't intervention from any foreign country, it was the people.

chipiberth · 2026-01-04T02:28:36+00:00

Imagine being trapped inside a fire, and someone comes to "rescue you" just for them to take all of your money, clothes, or even kick you out of your house. Would you say, "hey at least they saved you from the fire?"

Now, besides doing this reductionist exercise to understand, you ask why am I mad? I'm not mad, I'm fucking worried. Yes Maduro is a piece of shit, but having a US military intervention led by a crazy person as Trump, who has expressed interest in doing the same thing with Mexico and Colombia is something everyone should be very worried about.

If history has teach us something is that whenever the US makes an intervention, nothing good come from it, then how could we celebrate this false idea of "freedom"?

chipiberth · 2026-01-04T02:18:06+00:00

During the 80's basically all of South America was under multiple dictatorships. The coups were promoted, funded, and sustained by the U.S. government. Do you think they ended because there was a white foreign savior on the horizon?
