MADBALL

SAAAAARS - 2-19-2006 at 01:52 PM

god i love this band so much it hurts. saw them again last night and i think i could watch them everyday and still enjoy myself. they played everything i wanted to hear and it was one of (if not) the best reactions i've ever seen from kids in maine. i'm so happy.

i don't know if you will all feel my love for madball and some of you are picky about your shows nowadays, but are there any bands that you are always just so thrilled after seeing?

beaner - 2-19-2006 at 01:58 PM

madball are awesome. seen them 9 times. cant wait to see them play here with the stuff off 'legacy'.

the only other band's that have made me feel so good about goin to their gig's are biohazard and iron maiden.

nuff said me thinks. :cool:

XHonusWagnerX - 2-19-2006 at 02:07 PM

Im not huge fan of Madball. I dont hate them, but to me they are not as good as the hype they get. Bands that I always leave feeling thrilled after a show....

Slapshot
Murphys Law
Blood for Blood

Not sure who else.

SAAAAARS - 2-19-2006 at 02:41 PM

paint it black is also one i'm always extremely happy after. but FUCK madball was so fun. they played hardcore pride twice and they picked the perfect songs off legacy even though i love the whole thing.

Discipline - 2-19-2006 at 04:38 PM

I love Madball.

Bands that never disappoint:

Madball
Agnostic Front
Blood For Blood
Dayglo Abortions
Murphy's Law
Motorhead

ive seen them a buncha buncha times, and most have been good...theyre playin the TLA in philly on the 16th of march, but i dont know if i really care to go to that at all. theyre playin with a buncha bands off thier label (ferret) that i think suck, plus i just dont like the TLA as it is....besides,,2 days later theres a show happenin on second street with some better bands....i think we know who they are....

SAAAAARS - 2-20-2006 at 09:22 AM

just go see them. show up late or something to avoid the awfulness that goes beforehand. they could play with the worst bands in the entire world and i'd still go in a heartbeat.

XHonusWagnerX - 2-20-2006 at 09:33 AM

I wish I could have seen them when Ball of Destruction came out.

DAK - 2-20-2006 at 10:35 AM

MAd love for Madball.

CR83 - 2-20-2006 at 12:51 PM

Madball are total pros too. They really get shit going when they are playing. They are great.

JawnDiablo - 2-20-2006 at 01:38 PM

yet i will probably go to it anyway, as my best friend, whom is the only cat whom i go to shows with these days really wants to go to it.
plus the next day is sait pattys day, and as tradition follows he will be drinking starting the next morning. pluss maybe its an excuse for a philly triple header if you will. maybe ill get to see my pal tommy down in that area. madball on thursday, st pattys day massacare of my liver on friday, badvibes/ joe coffee for saturday. ,,i usually dont partake in st pattys day antics, but the way things have been latley, i think i could stand o get totally incoherent and get in a fight or something....

oooohh man, Madball is the pioneer of today's hardcore. I mean, I really enjoy almost every album Madball have made (except the two first ones), at first I hated 'em because of the shitty sounds, but when I bought Legacy, I was sold! GODDAMN! And nowadays bands who claim to play Old School Hardcore or whatever, is in my opinion, playing hardcore music that sounds awfull lot like Madball did 'bout 10 years ago, with a little twist of hip hop-attitude, don't get me wrong, this isn't a bad thing at all!

How can you say you you like Madball but NOT like Ball Of Destruction. Yer nuts bud.

JawnDiablo - 2-20-2006 at 05:55 PM

i prefer the old stuff....legacy...didnt really like it

JawnDiablo - 2-20-2006 at 05:56 PM

im sorry same goes for AF
call me a dick, but how many songs really need to be written about hardcore pride / unity / whatever dms this dms that
who cares
try something new

ENDERA.x - 2-20-2006 at 07:00 PM

well given that none of the bands i like the most are either, a) broken up b) overseas c) just dont tour to canada at all or enough or cant get across the border i havent found that many that I can maintain the option of thinking about seeing all the time and still enjoying

but, madball. yeah, what more do I need to say? wow.

off topic:

i saw this ridiculous skinhead/kkk documentary on A&E last night... theres another wow.
fuckin hicks!
none of the people in it were from the city i swear... if they were to walk around a major city as they do in the sticks, swastikas and kkk tatoos and white power shirts they wouldnt last very long I'm sure. but since all they do is talk shit and say white power and seig heil even though probably 90% of them are not german or speak german and do this in the bush while burning american flags and crosses they are fine.

what the hell.
one of the morons said to the ATF:

"its not when im in the open and you're watching me that you have to worry, it's when you can't see me that you have to worry that I'm doing something illegal" - (HAHA)

Discipline - 2-20-2006 at 07:06 PM

Saw that. Hillbilly idiots.

ENDERA.x - 2-20-2006 at 07:14 PM

yeah =/
but like, that shit puts a bad name on any white person really.. especially if they decide to wear something like Slayer like they were in the video

Well put, seriously, enough is enough write something new or focus on a new band. I love Roger Miret and the Disasters and I think it is so much better than new AF. The new Stigma solo project sounds promising as well and I cant wait to hear more.

DaveMoral - 2-21-2006 at 12:23 AM

I love Madball... and to be honest, Legacy is treading some new ground for Freddy lyrically. It's certainly more about hindsight than about being a thug... which is every Madball album up to Hold It Down. Legacy, in my humble opinion, is their crowning glory. I mean, sure they've got the cliches... hardcore unity/pride and shit... but they still feel that way and don't seem to be all jaded and shit. It wouldn't be a Madball record without something like that would it?

I don't like the Disasters as much as AF in general, including the new shit. I think Another Voice can get boring, but I'm still into it. There are a few parts where Roger's voice just sounds weak and forced. Of course, I think there are alot of instances where his voice sucks with the Disasters too.

About that WP doc, I saw that. You know, I watch shit like that and I just want to go find a Nazi and kick his head in. Shit, I watched Romper Stomper a couple weeks ago and wanted to kick in Nazi heads... and American History X. Gaaaa, I just want to kick in Nazi heads. Who's up for it?

I also felt bad for Slayer that those bonehead/rednecks were reppin' their shit so hard. T-Shirts, banners... annoying.

SAAAAARS - 2-21-2006 at 10:28 PM

legacy is painfully good.

tireironsaint - 2-21-2006 at 10:41 PM

I seriously have not been able to get into any Madball since the first 7 inch. That was great, everything else has been so cliche, so cornball thug, so fucking cheesy I can't even sit through the painful metal they play behind all the attitude. I did try to give them a chance live since some bands I'm not into can turn me around with their live performance, but with Madball all I could do was laugh. I tried again a few years later thinking they might have been caught up in some kind of stupid gangsta trend and I was hoping they had outgrown it but, if anything, the second show I saw was even worse. I know this band is sacred to tons of people into HC, but I've never been able to figure out why.

as gay as anyone thingks any of this shit is, it is not nearly as gay as, or will ever be as gay as:

I dunno man, that's like comparing two totally different kinds of the gay. Can anyone really say whether the leather fag is gayer than the gay cowboy? I think not.

so whats real then..
hahah

eh guys

Voodoobillyman - 2-22-2006 at 08:58 AM

I don't hate Madball, I just don't like em much. They are coming to the Norva with a ton ass of gay fucking crap and I have no desire to see this parade of assclownship.

In my opinion, not much with the "hardcore" label these days, I like digging for new stuff that isnt so in the spotlight of trends (which hardcore has become) and there are alot of good bands out there doing what I would call "real" music. The internet helps a shitload considering all we had before was word of mouth from independant record store clercks and people who had travelled and discovered new bands. It can be overwhelming at times the amount of bands able to record and get there stuff out there more, so many good bands and only so long to live and not enough money.
