How long until people are constantly bitching about AFTW

[dtv001]

You know its only a matter of time. So how long do you think it will be?

[Bluewater21]

It's already started, people are all ready crying about the lyrics. Idiots

[BigEyedUofLFish]

If saying Dave has gotten lazy lyrically is bitching then I guess throw me in the group. Musically, AFTW is a masterpiece but lyrically it's Everyday.

3-6 months. Nothing this band could do will satisfy most of this part of the fanbase

It haaaaaas beguuuuuuuuun

I think if you don't like this album, it is about to a point where you just need to give up. And I don't mean that as a ball washer knocking the haters. I just feel this is the first album since tLWS that sounds like a true DMB album. Almost like this is where you would expect them to be in a sense. I am more excited than I have been in a while. There are a few songs on here that can become live gems. That being said, we have to rely on Dave and the band to actually play them.... But musically, this is easily the best album since tLWS in my opinion. I'm not going "Big 4" or anything here, but this collection of songs is a HUGE leap from anything over the past 10 years, not counting a few unreleased songs... IMO

How long until these threads about the new album is put to rest? I swear half the people on here just want to create a thread to see how many people will post in it.

Do you think that this CD has anything to do with Dave's life?
Will this album be big?
Will this album play in a CD player?
What percentage of songs will now be from AFTW in the 2013 tour?
If Sept 11 is a sunny day, do you think that will affect how many copies this CD sells?

STFU and enjoy the CD, no one cares about the pointless things you think about becuase you smoked a cheap ass joint before listening to the album. This site right now is like a car with 9000 bumper stickers... NO ONE GIVE A FLYING FVCK WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY OR ASK

with that being said... i don't know, everyone will always bitch, it has already started

Right now I'm just basking in the general feeling of happiness.

Yup, it has. And it is really unfortunate.

I love the album but a lot of the lyrics kind of suck. That's ok though, no reason to get mad at me for expressing that opinion, and I'm not going to continue to post it all the time. Musically it's an 8.5/10 and lyrically it's a 6/10.
If you don't agree that is fine, I'm not trying to ruin anyone's day. I'm still wonderfully surprised by how much I enjoy listening to it and I'm absolutely happy with the product as a whole.

[OneSweetMonkey]

Kittens already started, surprisingly enough. So not long.

Nothing better than being a smarmy little prick on a messageboard.

Really, idiot? Did I say that?

Kittens just got reported for being an idiot.

I'm curious about the album's staying power as well. Obviously right now the vast majority is thrilled, and rightfully so, the album is great. I hope that the general feeling stays positive forever, and I think if they don't oversaturate it in the live venue, then I think this message board can and will accept it as one of the great DMB albums. I'm not saying it's the best, or even top 3, but it's without a doubt the best product in over ten years, and it's miles ahead of the three albums that preceded it.

I don't expect everyone to love everything about AFTW forever, but I do sincerely hope the overall feeling stays positive, because it's really an excellent album.

[chadizzy1]

I'm loving the quote on that main page.

"Over on the boards, commonly known as the place with more negative energy than New York during the Ghostbusters 2 era, AFTW is sitting at around 93% approval."

OnSweetMonkey you should probably refrain from name-calling while the rest of us are sharing our thoughts of the band's latest album.

I think Everyday is incredibly strong lyrically.

The day that putting words into my mouth is the same thing as you sharing your thoughts on the Band's latest album is the day that you're not an idiot.

And that day is not today.

Under The Table and Dreaming
Crash
Before These Crowded Streets
The Lillywhite Sessions/The Summer So Far

You sound like him now, dude. Why would you want to sound like him?

And I'm sorry... but he is an idiot. He makes himself come across that way for a reason. I don't know why... but he does it.

And it's true... if he's going to put words in my mouth and say that I said things that I never said, I'm going to (rightfully) call him an idiot.
