Alexisonfire

Watch Out

511 reviews

Sing scream sing scream (overplayed melodic guitar part) sing scream sing scream (pseudo breakdown) screeeeeeaaaam.

There, I summed this Cd up in less than one paragraph. Nothing about this crap kept me interested. I only made it through one whole song and about 40 seconds each of all the rest. All the songs sound about the same, this isn't worth the plastic it's pressed on. But apparently everyone else in the world loves them, so this review will probably get a buttload of replies like "OMG yer an idiiot who obviously knows nothing about music, Alexonfire rulez dude!" Well fuck you, you're wrong, this thing fuckin sucks.

And, somehow at the same time, he gives them what is likely too little credit by incorrectly spelling the band's name.

i liked alexisonfire's first cd, but if the rest of watch out sounds like the new song they put up on their website awhile ago then this review is probably dead on.

this album sucks, the old one was was better but all i can say about this one is you're right, scream, sing, scream/singing, sing, scream (guitar guitar guitar guitar guitar) scream. and the vocals suck on this cd too.

O.K. First off I have never heard this album and probably never will, but here is what I think of the reviews on this site, they suck. Anything that gets a good review is usually a typical hardcore band that only knows how to play open chords. I take it that whoever reviews these albums has no guitar playing sense at all. What's up with all of the 100s? Perfect albums are hard to come by in my opinion, but I guess you guys aren't picky at all.

i knew about this band years ago before they got their whole record deal (sort of hometown pride for them i guess), and their first CD was amazing, but this one dosen't make the cut. I bought it without listening to it first, it was a bad mistake.

by the way, this band DOES throw on an amazing live show though. the new shit might suck, but the old stuff is still awesome.

Umm, I took another look at the most recent reviews on the site, and the ones I have looked at are not hardcore at all. Where are you getting all of this?

MobCity

7/2/2004 11:51:00 AM

I can't believe anyone thinks that their self titled album was good. To say this album isn't as good as their first is saying that this album definately deserves a 1.
The lyrics on the preceeding album were preschoolish, boring, misspelled in the eaflet, the music was repetative, boring, every song sounded the same, and just horrible.
I blame Canada.

labelsaves

Most of the reviews on this site are hardcore. There are a few that aren't. I have never heard Alexisonfire, but they probably suck. It is kind of weak to give an album a 1 though. That probably means that you didn't really even listen to the album. You just didn't like the band. Here are some of the best bands though. Blood for Blood, Coalesce, the Dillinger Escape Plan, and C.O.C.

If you like the CD, then go listen to it. Attempting to defend it against someone who is obviously more intelligent and knowledgable than you seems pointless.

yes another one of brickhouses dick suckers...yeah i think i will listen to it but it doesn't matter, no matter how bad a cd is, it never deserves a 1, i think brickhouse should start rating pop and rap music just so i can see what he would give Chingy or Justin Timberlake

If you look at the reviews page, you'll see that many different genres of music are covered. Just because he doesn't like one of your favorite bands does not mean you should insult him on his own site. Go to a different site, one that gives it a positive review, and be happy with that. There's no need for this.

I think they definitely have a sound of their own. It's not the heaviest sound, or even the best sound. The clean vocals are good. But it's just a little too soft for me. They're talented though. I think they deserve a little bit more credit than they were given.

what a shitty review. whether you like the band or not, you should at least write a review that actually "reviews" the cd. says something more than, "this band fuckin' sucks 'cause they scream AND sing and if you don't agree with me, you're fuckin' lame." that doesn't at all help me decide if i should listen to the cd or not.

Wow worst review I've ever read in my entire life. Seems like this person has no interest in the genre at all. I'm not a huge fan of screamo, because some bands are a bit repetitive and boring. But I think Alexisonfire is one that stands out more than the rest with the george and dallas do an excellent contrast of screaming and singing.

i just have to throw something in here. All the bands are in this "genre", and any other "genre" because they sound the same, that is the point of a "genre", grouping the bands that have the same sound into one pile to sort them.

i agree with you on this cd, but the first release was good. these guys don't really try too hard in a "i want to be unique" way, they are just the "let's party" guys. there's a bit of hometown pride in here though, same as with any decent band from your hometown.

Why would you even bother reviewing a CD that belongs to a genre you have no respect for in the first place? Reviews are sposed to give an unbiased opinion of the CD and you certainly didn't give that. Not everyone shares your disdain for alexisonfire.
