gabrielomachado Posted April 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 really bored by the Metallica album, and i was already not digging it since the last two singles (first two were pretty good) they really should have stopped at Hardwired, nobody was expecting them to release anything new. imagine if they ended their studio run with Spit Out The Bone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all just goes at the same pace and so becomes one long homogenous slog. Also they forgot to write any choruses. Almost every ‘chorus’ is just the exact same pace as the verse, concluding with the track title being said once or twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Blink-182 sounded really good at Coachella, the best they’ve been since their initial reunion in 2009. They would be an amazing headline booking for DL 2024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like they’d be more likely to do Reading/Leeds again, but given Download’s need for headliners, you’d certainly hope that’s where they end up. They’d also be much better received there given the state of R/L these days. Good to hear they’re sounding good though, gonna give that a watch later.

Haven’t been able to find the full thing so just watched the couple of videos on Coachella’s YouTube page. They sound… alright. About what I expected really. I remember being really impressed with Mark’s vocals when I saw them at Leeds 2010 but tbh neither of them sound very good on these videos. Tom always sounds like he’s realllly trying to sing in his old voice but it just isn’t there anymore. But tbh, fuck it, I doubt anybody watching cared and the setlist looked great.

Jallen Posted April 17, 2023 Report Share Posted April 17, 2023 From this, I think we can assume LB are definitely not going to be added to the lineup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenG92 Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Distillers probably out as spotted on the official forums, no longer on the A-Z, same as Seether before they pulled out - Dead Sara also missing a while ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be far away either way, the festival's only like 70 days away, they haven't announced Puscifer yet and now have a big hole to fill - could be why it feels a bit late if they're scrambling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only space left for QOTSA is potentially Saturday under Metallica, can't see that happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see Download just not bothering to try booking them again now after two dropouts on the trot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

49Lawson Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Would be stunned if a band of QOTSA’s size at this stage when it’s sold out. If The Distillers had a biggish slot what about Incubus as a replacement? Around at that time (looks like they’re at Croatia on the 9th and I don’t think I’ve missed anything else) Could be a good addition at this stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see them there, when they got added to Mad Cool last year I was surprised by how much I actually enjoyed them considering I only knew a couple of songs, would love to see them again now I’m more familiar with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows. Be a great last minute add if they do but I see a lot of people talking about Amon Amarth or whatever instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
