those blindspott fans don't seem to understand, that there are people who dislike/hate blindspott.
"get out of this forum"
"this is for us to say how great blindspott are"
"why don't u support NZ music, instead of dissin it"
and so on and so on, well im sick of people telling me i can't criticise blindspott, hitler said u couldn't criticise him, every1's happy to criticise him.
so im starting an anti-blindspott forum. and if anyone wants to ctiticise the fact i don't like blindspott then go away, if u can do it we can too.
i would like to say, i like blindspott, but slowly i got pissed off at the illiterate, homie blindspott fans, with their weak posts and nothign to back up what they say.
in short i've listened to blindspott, they are unoriginal, remind me of linkin park and have never put on a good show ever.

sorry jimi but you are absolutly wrong, what is so diverse about a stupid no win argument being endlessly repeated.... your comments lower down make more sense.

i don't mind people who like them, i don't mind people who dislike them..... all i want is for people not to be twats about it.

Ok. First of all. It's fucking weird Jon Jr. that you've actually bothered to start an anti-blindspott forum.
I have no problem with people dissing blindspott. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and may express it freely but when there's a forum there for the blindspott fans to post how much they love the band and talk about upcoming shows or whatever, you've got to expect everyone to get all agro at ya for some of the bullshit I've seen posted, dissing the band. To me, it's cool if you're going to say you don't like a band, making valid points and giving reasonable reasons for your opinion. But if you're going to state your opinion, aimed to fuck people off then shit.. find a hobby? And get over people bitching at you for mocking the band.
Then again, if you're that bored and you're going to mock a band. Here would be the place to do it.. and leave the blindspott fans alone!

Ok i don't think it's a question of how the band doesn't suck. People like them for personal reasons.
I didn't think this forum was the place for me to say why the band is a good band in my eyes.
There's nothing wrong with arguements such as this. I quite like the education, learning about people who think the way you do.
JON JR you are the biggest hypocritical ...
JON JR you are the biggest hypocritical wank ever! noone said you couldnt criticize blindspott, but you have nothing new to say. nothing you have said is constructive, all you are saying is that blindspott suck. well done ass face.
// i'd be fine if u explained why blindspott DON'T suck, gave some reasonable arguments.
but here is your great fucking reasonable argument.......... // i've listened to blindspott, they are unoriginal, remind me of linkin park and have never put on a good show ever.
do you think pacifiers new album is original? how do you know they have never put on a good show ever? what a fucked thing to say.
there may be people who have a genuine beef with what or the way blindspott play, and could put up a constructive argument. you however are not one of them.

I'm getting sick of seeing posts about them here,prasing & dissing them , why can't you just keep it in the Blindspott forum??
Blindspott#1 is guilty for this.
I know the forum takes ages to load, but if your a fan of their's, you'll wait
For me I reckon they suck, but if you like them great, but stop saying they're the best NZ band ever, cause they're not!!

MY SWEEPING GENERALISATION AND DISRESPECT FOR OTHER BLINDSPOTT FANS:
I'd love to see a Blindspott fan's english exam/essay. Or that of a K'Lee/Rubicon fan...
"wat? 'u' really has THREE lettaz?! wat da f*k?!"
That's not english...that's called TAKING PHONICS TOO FAR or BEING FUCKING LAZY!

That's all for now, kids.

people that write like that get really annoying. sometimes its sooooo bad that i have to TRANSLATE it.
but i'm a blindspott fan (and proud) and i don't write like that.

im with Jon Jr. Blindspott can suck my small shriveled white arse. They suck. I went and listened to the album the other day at the CD Store, and i skipped most tracks, they all start with that wishy-washy sample shite. As far as im concearned they are West Dorkland trash like what was on Havoc and News the other day. Aye cuzz

blindspott are the dumbest! i hate blindspott! they're so fake, and bad and limp bizkit/linkin parkish....they have real cliche lyrics and then half the time the singer sounds like the guy off westlife, the other half of the time a screaming lil boy. i support the anti-blindspott forum....im glad to know theres more of us out there

Avril lavigne is Fake, not blindspott, avril trying to look all rock'n'roll, smashing up guitars and shit...that is fake, blindspott ARE nu-mettalers, they are not trying to be something they are not.

*shudder* Avril Lavigne is worse than Britney Spears. 'Sk8er boi' = worst song ever!!!

im not a big fan of blindspott but I wouldn't go so low to saying the singer sounds like Westlife. Why? Because he doesn't and its the truth. "Nil by Mouth" is their only good song in my opinion and as for Avril Lavigne I'd put her in class with Blink 182, that "Sk8ter Boi" is an awful power-pop racket! But shes nothing great either and Britneys definitely far from it.

ah well, a generation of rock'n'roll wannabes who think they are tough is better then a generation of skanks.
I remember reading an article in rollingstone about avril, how she wrote all her own songs (yeah right), and was really tough and got thrown out of nightclubs cause she got in fights and stuff. fucking funny shit. man I'd love to be a highly paid US PR dude, spinning shit to make these people sound cool.

i feel sad for the people who's parents think avril is too "out there" and ban it from their households.
but ain't try-hards better than skanks??? in my opinon she makes better music, not that its any good.
all her song is about is mockin someone who dumped her BF, ummmm ive seen her two videos, and can she actually play a guitar??? just wondering, or is it an accesory like elvis's???
at my progressive place of work (formerly pac n save) my work-mates were astounded by the fact pink was a prostitute b4 she was famous!!! isn't that so scandalous!!!
Karma police arrest this man, he talks in maths, he buzzes like a fridge

You have wonder how the fuck 'Complicated' had made it to no.1 and remained there for other 2 months, let alone Avril Lavigne making to Aotearoa.
It's all a fuckin' conspiracy in the radio world (cue Twilight Zone theme music) and why is the media dubbing Avril Lavigne as a punk rocker when she's a guitar power pop whore?
But then again, Britney's just as bad, she can not only claim that she can sing but she also claims that her ex didn't try to bend her over once, and she's a skank too!

i'm personally not a fan but blindspott's popularity, at least on their first entry into mainstream shows that they're not talentless and they _do_ make music people can relate to, which can't be a bad thing.

worse things to bitch about?
how about mc shit/kfc/starbucks/subway

rather than food out lets
it also kills any local business (kinda like being swamped with shit american music and t.v)
which fucking sucks
and yet people just say yeah i know its bad but it taste nice,
some bands even sell there songs to them in order to make money
(datsuns/kfc) makeing money from selling your songs to tv isnt that band but when you support multi national juggernaughts it just encourges the fuckers,
but no i cant think of anything worse than a musical band sounding like everything else on tv/radio even if they have a great "live" show with lights and people and clothes and sponsership and touring and record co and merchendise with witty logos on it,
if the music doesnt matter then its the age old story
of record companys throwing shit on the wall and see what sticks,
but good luck to blindspot they have an amazeing oppertunity to inspire a mass group of people with there music,
im working on doing the same thing,

hmmmmmmmmm
my problem with blindspott is
a) the fact they the have gained all their support off boppers hearing the songs on the radio, having never seen blindspott live, and not likely to
b) the fact that many of the fans of limp bizkit, finding it was now "uncool" to like an overseas band, found out about blindspott, a NZ version, they say fuck, have a trendy dj and you hardly ever see them live, u hear them over the radio.
c) the fact these "fans" get pissed off when people insult them (there are always exceptions), the cling to the notion
"support all NZ music, don't diss it"
well what pisses me off is that there is crap NZ music out there, i believe blindspott is one of those crap bands and it it wouldn't bother me if they didn't go on and on as if everyone here likes them.
this has been seen in the rubicon and shihad forums, we've all grown up. why can't u???

sorry dude, but i know a lot of people who aren't like that at all.
a) None of them are boppers. You can meet them if you like.
b) They all can't stand Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit.
c) It's a human reaction. Are you not human? I'm sure you'd get pissed off if we called your girl friend fat and ugly.
You seem to have more of a problem with the people who like blindspott than the band. But not all people are like that. It would be stupid to say those people exist.

// the fact that many of the fans of limp bizkit, finding it was now "uncool" to like an overseas band
It is uncool to like overseas bands now? When did that happen? God... I must be out of touch with the kiddies...

i dont really have a problem with blindspott, im not much of a fan. i just cant agree with most of the fans in the forum because all they seem to do, is bring up the same shit when someone happens to have a different opinion to theirs, although some people who criticise blindspott dont do it very constructively, instead they just say they " suck" and that could mean anything.
blindspott sound nothing like limp bizkit or linkin park, the singer of blindspott doesnt have a whiny voice like fred durst and he has a different way of 'rapping', the same with linkin park.
there may be crap nz music out there but it doesnt mean you have to go rub it in the fan's and their faces.

the sad thing is trixie has just shown my point as true...
she isn't even a fan of blindspott and yet she has given the best argument on their behalf...
fred durst mite not sound like him, but its just the general sound they make sounds the same, there are differences but tto my uneducated ear they are indestinguishable to me
im pissed off at the fact the fans rub the fact i don't like blindspott in my face
//im pissed off at the fact the fans ...
//im pissed off at the fact the fans rub the fact i don't like blindspott in my face
thats only cause you give them reason to. I don't like blindspott - but i don't see any fans rubbing it in my face. piece of advise jon jr - get the fuck out of the blindspott forum if you don't like it.
U know i used to be just like trixie.. ...
U know i used to be just like trixie.. blindspott were just a band that everyone liked and there were a lot of hard out blindspott fans getting angry at every person who mocked the band.
It doesn't even matter whether I like the band or not. Your arguement sux Jon Jr. and it always has. What exactly is it that you don't like?
I completely dissagree with you. How does the overal sound that blindspott 'makes' sound the same as Linkin Park ad Fred Durst? Yes, they're all heavy mainstream bands. Is that all it is? Cause that's what it sounds like is your problem with the band.
U know, it's ok to like something that everyone else likes too. You don't have to pay attention to the hype, and the amount of times the songs are played on the radio.. you don't have to buy in to that. But all I can see from any statement you have made is that that is the only problem with the band.
Say you became famous, Jon Jr. and you had a forum for your fans to talk about your album, or the book you wrote... and all people did was bitched about why you were good, and why you sucked.
Not everyone gets on with everyone. Not everyone can be expected to. We're all different people with different thoughts and opinions. I'm sure the majority of all blindspott fans DON'T expect you to like the band. But, unless you want to turn out to be a bitter old man.... LEAVE THEM THE FUCK ALONE!
Their forum doesn't effect you in any way personally... well it didn't before you posted the crap you posted in there. If they mocked you in the forum, it'd be fair enough.

the strange thing is, angsty, that you would think that people would have taken your message in by now.
not to demean you in any way, but what you said has become a 'forum cliche' on this site.... it's sad that people have to keep on saying it, as you would think/hope everyone would have realised meaningless bitching gets ya nowhere.

hey yeah not trying to stop you or anything. its great that youre adding a voice of reason to all this.

well said trixie i agree that blindspott does not sound anything like linkin park or limp bizkit
finally some one agrees with me on that point!!

I am a blindspott fan, and i have no problem with people that don't like them... we are all entitled to our own opinion. But i get pissed of with the army of faggots who come in to the blindspott forum and tell us all that they sound like Linkin park and limp bizkit. This is absolute shit. If that is true then 8 foot sativa ripped off slipknot because they both scream and play evil chords. Rubicon ripped of greenday because they play happy chords and sing happy melodies. Ben Harper ripped off Bob marley because they are both black reggae musicians who smoke pot. Its a fucking stupid arguement. A band can have its on style within a genre. If you can think an intelligent reason to diss blindspott then i have no problems you posting your comment in the forum

Perhaps we should be naming unique sounding bands here, cause the majority of all music is a rip off of another band or sounds like something else in some way or another.
Who gives a shit if something sounds like another band. If it sounds good, then great! It's what's behind the music that makes it deep.

Well said, UncleBob. "Music is art - art is imitation"
I dont take myself completely serious when thinking that, but hey, how shit would it be if EVERYONE was absolutely original in the music world, there would be a different genre for every artist ... and it'd be kinda sad if there was only one band you liked, cause they were the only ones who made 'their' type of music, and you didnt like any other kind... youd only have one group's albums/material ti listen to or enjoy...
That was a bit cryptic but never mind!
