That isn't what I said nor do I think it should be that way. However, I do think it's ridiculous that people who obviously have no respect for anything Sawao has done over the past few years still post on pillows boards so frequently. If you don't like what the pillows do anymore than let it go and move on.

No, I understand what you meant.

Simple rock it is. I don't think it's fun. Bakuon Drop is the only thing so far, from what I have heard, that sounds "fun." And jomei is right in regards to what he said.

[quote="clouds drive monster"]exactly. you can't have the predators without the pillows. If it's inferior to the pillows, so be it. When I think of fun music I think of O.P. King, and that was brilliant.[/quote]

I just got some OP King from kurisu. Oh man. This shit rocks. This is fun music.

OP king tears the fucking predators a part. O.P. King is incredible.
A mash of power chords over and over is not fun music - sometimes it's catchy.. in this case it most certainly is nooot.

they're holding out for a miraculous turn around in which the pillows revert to their pre-please mr. lostman style. or something.

but, if you really love something, then you're going to criticize it. as long as people aren't making totally pointless comments (which will be happily deleted), let's all just [i]relaaaaax[/i].

maybe for the next new release, we should have two topics. one for griping, one for praising.

I love eveyrthing about the pillows - I love penalty life when so many others choose to bash it. I can't help but dislike the predators though - they just sound that bad.

[quote="Mellie"]some of us are tired of hearing this "Sawao sucks mentality." If people hate him so much, WTF are they doing here?[/quote]

this is why:

Yeah, that'll happen.

It's not a pre-PML style as much as the "or something."

They change their style frequently enough that, even though the recent style has left a bitter taste in some peoples' mouths, the next release could be in a different, more pleasing direction.

JUN WORKS FOR THE INTERNET

No wonder he doesn't practice.

I just love how everyone bashes (and sometimes, it IS warrented... okay and sometimes I agree) that the Pillows don't kick as much ass anymore... and then Sawao puts out a no frills punk/garage rock mini album that basically says screw you. And some of you can't handle/appreciate it. That's the best part. Haha.

Sawao wins.

You're not Sawao's b*tch. Mellie is.

that's not the point, jedi.

Jesus Christ. I think the music sucks and that's all that matters to me. Stop being so god damn superficial and realize that the stupid excuses you make up have no effect on anyone who is smart enough to judge the music on how it sounds rather than the attitude that you say is its driving force.

If you like The Predators because you enjoy their sound, I have no problem with you. But if you have to make up idiotic reasons why you like them and force them in our faces, then I think you should just shut up.
