Hinder

[GNRslave]

i think this band should have their own thread. i have extreme behavior and i cant stop listening to it, it kicks ass!! i think hinder's a very 'under the radar' band and should get more recognition, but anyway, i heard they recently released a walmart cd with a cover of bon jovi's "bed of roses" and eddie money's "take me home tonight." Since i have the album already, i was wondering if anyone knew where i could download those 2 covers. i have no problem buying them but i cant find them on itunes, if anyone knows i'd appreciate it!!

[mrlee]

hinder piss me off.

i saw them on TV, claiming to be all rock n roll and how they think the modern music scene is boring blah blah bomb loads of bands have said this before them this decade, except those bands do play party anthems and good time rock n roll, hinder claim to play that, i checked them out they sound like bloody nickleback!

[Catcher]

If i hear that fucking 'lips of an angel' song once more i have a mind to execute the whole band.... pathetic trash....
Sorry...just had to be said. They are as talented as an earthworm...

[metallex78]

I usually try to avoid posting negative stuff about bands I don't care for, as I'd much rather spend my energy discussing stuff about bands I do like, but I agree, if I hear that godawful 'lips of an angel' song one more time...

I suppose I should say good on them for supposedly trying to be a rock n roll band or whatever they claim to be, but they just look and sound like they're trying waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too hard.

[GNRslave]

ok, while i respect your opinions, this was not intended to be a  hinder bashing thread. i just wanted to know where i could find the two covers lol! if anyone LIKES hinder and could help me out, i'd appreciate it, thanks!!

I like Lips of an angel and Get Stoned I wont lie but other then that I dont listen to them

[Bill 213]

They're basically Nickelback on Red Bull.  Horrible, crappy, sappy douchebag rock at it's finest.  "I love you girl, I love you so much, but all these problems we have, I don't understand why you don't love me, because I want to hold you and I miss you....yadda yadda yadda"

To quote the MSNBC story entitled "Songs we wish we could leave in 2006":

"Lips of an Angel," Hinder
This song sounds like it was scooped from Nickelback?s septic tank.

They may not be great, but I would sure as hell rather listen to them than all of todays emo bands like Fall Out Douches (or is it boy?)

I certainly agree with you, there.  But, I think we (meaning lovers of REAL rock n' roll) have a tendency to overrate any band that comes along and attempts to play the music we love.  Examples abound:

Jet
---they're from Australia, and they have some good rock songs, so they're the NEXT AC/DC! 

Wolfmother
---they try to mimic Zeppelin, but really lack the songwriting skills to do so effectively

And so on...

[Dr. Blutarsky]

Hinder seems to be the record industry's latest fresh rock band.

They are OK, but we've had a lot of ok bands lately, It would be nice to hear something great for a change.

Nobody can ever match what AC/DC did   Wolfmother are better than Jet IMO.
As for hinder they aren't what they claim to be but maybe they can improve and finally start playing some rock n' roll

Heard the full album a few days ago and thought it was pretty poor.

Ok so i am like a huge GNR fan.  Im not too crazy about their new stuff, its missing something.  Obviously the guitar riffs that slash has and velvet revolver obviously misses melody that axl has.  But if any one is a GNR fan, Im telling you to listen to HINDER.  This song they have almost sounds like sweet child o' mine.  Listen for yourself.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdQwOICv5fE

And the lyrics remind me of Izzy's writing.  Why can't guns get back to sounding like this.  BTW Hinder said they were heavily influenced by Guns!  Go Figure!!!!

Check it out

Yeah then listen to Hinders album and they sound more like a post grunge band than a feelgood rock band.

[axlrosegnr]

I like Hinder, and I don't mind some Nickleback (the older stuff was better) But, and this isn't meant to be offensive to anyone, but I beleive peoplt that say they just hate these bands (and I mean really hate, like some of your comments) are just trying to sound cool and intellegent. Are they a great, groundbreaking band? hell no, just take them for what it's worth, a rock band making tunes that are sure a hell of a lot better than most of the crap out today. Hell, anyone hear AC/DC's new tune?  I LOVE AC/DC....but thats one lame ass boring song.

[mrlee]

fool.
Lets get something straight, i like Nickelback, including the new stuff.
My issue with the band (Hinder) is.
When they first broke through in the UK charts. They were interviewed, they were cocky and had big egos and claimed how they were doing the party rock thing with the influence from all the old bands.

So i listen to the album, and it sounds like a Post Grunge album. Thats not me trying to sound intelligent or cool, thats me stating the facts. The album was shit it wasnt rock n roll at all, and wasnt even good post grunge sounding stuff like Nickelback.

BUT

The new single (use me), is what i expected from them originally, that is an improvement

[GNR4L]

Hinder,seether, daughtry they all suck that ain't rock n roll.  Labels will sign the shittiest artist just to make a quick buck.

[mrlee]

seether are so fucking crap.

They are like Nirvana...only far worse...and THAT IS BAD.
