Darkness better then jovi..
 

this isn't made to offend abybody but as this is a message board i'm gonna say how i feel.. i really think that the darkness are better then what jovi are bringing out thses days. i think the the old jovi stuff is better then darkness but the new stuff is alor worse. if they had carried on making proper rock music and not gone pop then i wouldnt be saying this. but at the mo darkness are kicking they arses.

Loser...

the darkness is a fake-band with an ugly singer, who sounds as a man who is kicked in his balls.

Re: Darkness better then jovi..
 

to enable a comparison, the bands actually have to be in the same genre and the same league. bon jovi are way out of the darkness' league for the moment, as well as massively different in musical style.

but, an opinion is an opinion. the darkness are falvour of the month at the moment. i'm waiting for a sufficiently differentiated second album or i think they'll dive.

fake band?? haha and bon jovi aren't? what has being ugly got to do with it, oh so he hasn't got fake gleaming teeth like mr jovi. maybe he actually likes making music :roll:

and jon bon jovi doesn't?! you sound like an immature little boy incapable of any rational thought. you are unable to back up any of the points you make with a valid argument and every post you make makes me feel more sorry for your poor brain.

As someone else said a few days ago Bon Jovi has always had a pop side - even "back in the good old days :roll: " Example - Born to Be My Baby, Never Say goodbye - these are not heavy metal rockin songs. Geeze - this band is not as big a traitor to it's past as some would like to think.

first of all I didn´t say which band is better, but ok without a doubt Bon jovi is better also on this moment

with fake I mean, they´re just a showband. they care more about show than music

but ok that´s my opinion
8)

I don't see how that is a bad thing wanting to put on a good show. like i said i love the old BJ. noone can touch those songs, prayer, wanted, bad medicine ect and never probably will. but come on you put on the darkness album and then all about loving you.. :roll: . it is a shame that jovi can't be rock nomore :mad:

I think that these days the Darkness is better than Bon Jovi, especially after BJ released that TLFR crap. But the Darkness is not really that good. Maybe Bon Jovi will turn rock again. We have to have faith.

the darkness can´t give me an emotion. they are not the band for me. I just don´t like them.

we´ve just a different opinion, but that´s ok

Re: Darkness better then jovi..
 

maybe u have a point there but they shouldnt even be compared to jovi, 2 completelly different carrears and styles

When Bon Jovi's debut album came out everybody dug the bubblegumrocksound of the mid 80's and it wasn't such a big deal, it was just a fun record. A lot of people forget the word 'fun' too often, that pretty much describes the whole Darkness album. Oh yeah, and it rocks too! No more meaningless comparisons please! :D

The Darkness are a joke. I can't believe that people take them seriously. I want to puke anytime I hear that eunuch try to sing. Or play guitar for that matter. The Darkeness is not a band, it's a sad, sad joke.

The darkness are great and can deffiently sing and play guitar. I understand wot your saying cos its ahrd to class jovi as rock anymore sadly :? But to say darkness are better maybe goign abit far.. i dunno.. if BJ get anymore poppy and darkness carry being on this good then yeah they will end up being better BUT i will still like jovi better cos of the old stuff. Im not sayin i dont like the new stuff cos i do but its not as rock is it. :? hmm i always find it hard to explain wot im trying to say :lol:

Re: Darkness better then jovi..
 

THANK GOD!! I am not alone. Kathleen, you are my new best friend!!

Ditto!!!!

Comming from somebody who says they like kylie minouge :lol:

I said she was very pretty, not that I am a fan of her music. :wink: As a formal model, you should appreciate that. :D

In the other thread you said Jovi are posers. What the hell are The Darkness then?

I do like The Darkness for what I think they are - fun!

But like in the other thread I don't get your point. If you believe an one-album-band could be in any way better than what Bon Jovi are (though there is not much to compare), I'm fine with it. But I don't have to agree. Go listen to The Darkness, I won't stop you, but I don't see why you always have to bitch on Bon Jovi.

Maybe you have to think about your attitude.
Duh. :roll:

Is it a serious post? If it is then

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

that's what I think about it.

He does have a point i dont think its that much of a silly post i mean TD are like how BJ were in the early days and now they arent so good, I get wos hes saying. And it is just opinions..

Methinks Darkness are far from Bon Jovi in early days. Bon Jovi in early days actually wrote good music ...

TD do write good music! I dont understand how a rock fan can not like them..

Re: Darkness better then jovi..
 

Ah - it must have been you that I was quoting then :D I knew that someone had pointed that out recently but I forgot who. It really struck a chord with me - so many people put these guys down as having "sold out". I think that they are doing what they have always done well - making music that appeals to a wide variety of people.

Re: Darkness better then jovi..
 

AMEN!! You took the words right out of my mouth.

Re: Darkness better then jovi..
 

Bj sold out to whom?

for me, they rock as much now as they always have done...i think alice cooper summed TD up when he goes 'i just dunno whether to take them seriously or not'...

TD are an ok band nothing special, and whoever it was whom compared a whole album to BJ worst song on bounce(IMO) is just a flawed comparison.

Justin Hawkins is a complete d***head!!! I like their guitar sound but his voice drives me up the wall.

by that reasoning i could say baby one more time (britney spears or not its a ****ign astounding pop song) is better than soem half arsed beatles track therefore Britney must be better than the beatles.

i dont actually work like that tho.

I think that she meant people always comment that BJ have sold out by becoming more of a pop band. Not her feelings in particular, but the general consensus.

im not part of that general consensus... 8)

Me neither. I don't think that they have sold out at all. They are doing what they have always done, except changing a bit with the times.

yes i agree, what they write baout is more 'mature' then the past but i dont think it has hampened who they are at all...for example we would never have got a its my life or just older song if they had....also the story tellers in joey/RSOW woudl never exist...

Maybe I agree with this. I believe that Island is doing poor job with them (picking wrong singles and such) that's why the band's efforts don't seem to be as good as they used to be.

singles arent a big deal and i dont think they do much anymore.

Singles form public opinion, give airplay and basically sell records.

If Hook me up/The Distance/Bounce were released from Bounce, sales would have been totally different.

how so?

hook me up wouldnt have sold more then everyday i doubt. bounce is good for radio as is the distance too...but for me its just about the music, im never too concerned for singles or sales cos ive realised they are nothing important.

I think The Darkness are Led Zep wannabes. Justin Hawkins is anyway.

I haven't listened to The Darkness (not that I feel the need now after reading this thread :lol: ) but I don't see the point in comparing bands that obviously have little in common apart from both belonging to the music business. I think that's unfair to BOTH of them.

They are bloody good and i cant believe who ever said they cant play guitar!
