olivia Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 i can't get my head around the support though. i don't see how oceansize, the receiving end of sirens and the blackout can all be supporting? i hope when i see them it's the later two.

starscollide Posted October 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 yeah it is a bit confusing... i thought it was oceansize, receiving end of sirens and scary kids scaring kids though?? mabye i'm wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olivia Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 scary kids scaring kids pulled out, i believe, because of transportation problems. they're not on the new tour advertisement either. but yeah, i really, really adore 'sleep well tonight'.

Of course they were not manufactured Nah we stood there and hurled abuse when they tried to get a crowd excited when they were up our end of the country.....he tried to be abusive so he deserved it.

Hiroki Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Like every band they are manufactured to a degree in order to make them marketable but with Fightstar their whole sound was chosen for them because of it gaining in popularity. In the end you like them and im sure Kerrang! will tell you when to jump ship to the next band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end you like them and im sure Kerrang! will tell you when to jump ship to the next band you have no idea do you? Fightstar were on a major record deal, but they tried to make them poppier to be more marketable, and their singer, charlie, ripped up the contract. now they are on an indie label in the UK, and trustkill in the US. Fightstar do whatever the hell they want. do you really think charlie would leave busted, to just join another manufactured band that is told everything by a label? He abandoned potential millions of $$$ to play the music he was passionate about, and if you knew ANYTHING about fightstar, you would know that they dont deserve the shit they get. And also the kerrang comment was uncalled for, the irony is incredible seeing how we are on a fanforum for a band who are constantly in kerrang.

Hiroki Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 And like Fightstar, Paramore have been manufactured in certain ways. I know they are on Gut and they are just as bad as the majors in the way they control bands direction and style (just look at the what they tried to do to Sikth and The Wildhearts). In the end whatever I say you will say otherwise so how about we agree to disagree to stop anymore conflict? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the1 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 how the fuck are they manafactured?? They left a major label and tbh aren't exactly big. Compared to shit like Elliot Minor I'd say they are extremely respectable. And Charlie is a class singer. If your gonna base your opinions on how much support Kerrang! give them then that's ridiculous. You're on a Paramore board for christs sake, not many bands have a glossier image than modern day Paramore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the1 Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 And if you throw shit at bands then frankly you're fucking pathetic. How about doing something constructive rather than wasting your time? No wonder the UK gets a bad name with idiot like you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiroki Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Now now princess I didn't mean to offend you I base my opinion on fact and what I know but hey you think otherwise and that's your opinion. Btw Charlie is a shite singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
