I've been open minded, and have tried to give the band several chances. But I still can't stand this. The Locust is to music what dogshit is to shoes. basically everyone who cums on here to rip the piss and say how shit the locust are. these people are sad as they have nuthin better to do than cum on websites and say shit bout a band that are different. everyone fukin says all the shit but the locust are not afraid to make music that sum people may not like. respect to them cus they are fukin amazin. the new album is gona rule after listenin to safety second body last. xkrissx the locust make music to piss off people like punkrocker810 and i am thankful for it. u are a douche great show in switzerland! they are sooo ill! but great! yeahh, keep rocking hahhaaa. the locust!!! bunch of skinny little bitches who wear masks and suits so that they can pretend to be superheroes or whatever else they read in comic books. the need to get lives. oh my god, the fact that people like this shit shows how pathetic the world is. to the guy who mentioned the casualties, please stfu who wants to listen to those fking idiots who sing about sinffing glue al day? The Locust will fucking rape you. OMG!!! where's the chorus! i can't make out the words. Why doesn't the beat go duhduhduhduh... this sounds exactly like DEP. no talent involved in it... listen to the casualties. I'd go see these guys if they weren't against the Circle Jerks & GBH. Damn people and booking things on the same night "This band is dumb and pointless. Gimmick band for kids who are too afraid to get into grindcore, so they settle for this goofy sendoff." I saw these guys play Philly last year or the year before, I forget when. Their drummer kept puking between songs (little too much H before the show?), and their songs just aren't that long. This band is dumb and pointless. Gimmick band for kids who are too afraid to get into grindcore, so they settle for this goofy sendoff. I think music is music and if you don't like it fine if you do fine! I on the other hand like the Locust only because it sounds a lot different then stuff thats been coming out lately. Also my favorite color is bowling and my other favorite color is porkloaf!! sass-core? i think the only band that i'd put in that (fake) genre is the blood brothers, there isn't really anything 'sassy' about the locust. plus, the locust doesn't sound much like any of the bands mentioned here. maybe a little bit like DEP, but they're far from similar. the locust is the weirdest and most interesting of the bunch. that guy from the last comment is total sasscore. I really hate the term "sass core" that shit is really lame. How bout just rock music, why "sass-core?" What makes the locust, blood brothers, etc. any sassier than any number of bands. I fashion myself to be quite sassy yet I don't think I'm "sass-core." Point is its fucking lame that a portion of people write off a band because of stupid fucking genre names that really have nothing to do with the music that is being played. yeah that guy is a dumb ass, the locust sound just like the blood brothers and vaux and dep and other stuff Well, we be knowin' how to be speakin' mo betta than you. no of you know anything about music, fuck you next up, melt banana...holy god yes I was just thinking the same thing actually......but DEP is MUCH harder, and, well, much better. They kinda remind me of DEP. Maybe I'm crazy! The Locust [at least on this album] is just like the most insane, spastic parts of Blood Brothers multiplied exponentially. vaux sounds nothing like blood brothers and the locust and the locust is way more psycho and weird than the blood brothers This is good, but why the hell did they stop screaming for? better. how does this compare to the self-titled album? Bah, overrated noise. I lump em with the Blood Brothers, Vaux, and all this other "sass-core" nonsense. The backlash will come when people start to realize that other people like this album. yeah and if you get the crimson curse discography cd, there's some pretty kickass video footage. this album is god "what do swing kids and crimson curse sound like? comparisons?" The Dillinger Escape Plan is far from random noise, but I won't rant, because I'm too tired. Also DEP and The Locust don't really sound alike at all. I'm not going to bash this cd..if you like it great...but I dont...It reminds me of dillinger escape plan. I didnt like them either.I just dont understand the hype...for me I need more than just random noise for entertainment....on a different subject I found the new Me First album today..not to bad at all what do swing kids and crimson curse sound like? comparisons? why would i need this when i have dillinger escape plan, who's music is just as chaotic and simply more talented? i like the swing kids but if i had to pick a pre-locust Justin Pearson band, i'd go with the Crimson Curse. that's probably the most vicious stuff he's done. i hate my computer. signed out again. but if you haven't listened to swing kids listen to them. i enjoy them more than the locust. i want to listen to swing kids. i think i will. i don't think charles bronson is as much power violence as they are a band that has ALOT of sarcastic songs. i agree with the reviewer's prior opinion...Locust? they fucking suck dude!!!!!!!!!!!! these no talent ass clowns (like bolton gettin ripped in office space) need to never record another song Great album but I still think "flight of the wounded locust" was better. "Gluing Carpet To Your Genitals Does Not Make You A Cantoloupe" and "Wet Nurse Syndrome Hand Me Down Display Case" are such fucking great tunes. "charles bronson is better" On the last POR tour, both Nerf Herder [Honest Don's] and Authority Zero [Lava] were on it. It's not exactly a label showcase. I don't think they'll be on Punk-o-rama, aren't they technically signed to Anti? blood brothers are slightly better charles bronson is better amazing at times, but sometimes i just can't take how spazzy and nuts this is, it's like a tornado going through the room , rudiculous energy. my biggest problem though is that some of the lyrics come off as just plain screaming. i would love to be able to scream along to this shit. i need to listen to these guys more. boy do i ever. i missed the boat years ago. i know that. i missed out on a lot. This has always been a band I said I'd listen to more but I never got around to it. But then my friend got a promo of this CD, and holy shit does it ever slay Taking Blood Brothers to the next level.... |
