Buck Cherry

I hate Buck Cherry. Crazy Bitch is up there with the new Kid Rock as the most horrible music being played. (BTW, I listen to the radio in the morning to wake me up, and the only station that comes in clear plays these songs every day.)

"Why would they come to our concert just to boo us?" -Lisa Simpson
Seriously?
Welcome to last year. Population: YOU
have since 1999.
They are just straight ahead sleazy rock n roll with no appologies.
the only song i like of theirs is the new one
there's no time to cry
soon i will be leavin'
look me in the eye
no matter what's in front of me
it's your face that i'll see
EV Solo: 7/11/11 11/12/12 11/13/12
actually they broke up because there was a big fight within the band and 3 of them quit.
he was actually THE singer. And Keith Nelson (the other guy that didn't quit) was in the band too. They wrote an entire album with those guys. In fact if you look at the liner notes, Keith Nelson is actually given a writer's credit on Suckertrain Blues.
But in the end they decided to go with the big name instead and write new stuff.
This shit is real. This album kicks ass and just oozes sleazy rock and roll. If you remember "All Lit Up Again" from the first album, you know what you're getting here, which is a great thing IMO.
It's more straight ahead than the first album, and just as good, maybe even better. This is straight Hollywood sleaze, literally directly right out of LA. Think Black Crowes type vocals, GNR lyrics, and the Crue's to hell and back attitude. You will NOT want to play this around your mom. This is NOT music for the feint of heart, these are songs about running around LA being awesome instead of middle-aged crap like what's on riot act with its songs about "thumbing my way to some place" and taking 2 years off of touring to push around a baby stroller and go to bed early on Fri night b/c he has a pretty big Saturday planned at Home Depot. Rock and Roll.
It's 1047am and Buckcherry probably just went to bed half an hour ago. They probably don't support anyone for the election, because they don't know who's running. They're reckless, which I dig about them.
I wouldn't wanna hear it everyday, but it takes all kinds. If you have a day at work where your cube makes you feel like an animal in a cage, throw in "15" and let the first track play. Your wife or mother won't like the song at all, but you will.
If the band members live to see a 4th album, I look forward to seeing what they put out next.
Standout tracks: Next 2 You (love the "2" in the title!), Out of Line (a beer-thrower), Everything (straight out of 1989), Sorry, Crazy Bitch (a sa-weet tune!), Sunshine
That fanch is crazy and has no idea what the hell he's talking about...

not too keen on "Crazy Bitch".
There's a huge difference between generic shit like Buck Cherry and band's like QOTSA or Oasis who have attitude and are cool, not trying to be cool.
Do you like JET?
no not really...but compared to buck cherry they are like the beatles.
"15" (the newest album) was recorded after their record label dropped them. They went out, made a cd, and went platinum. They put on a great live show and are incredibly happy to be back out. I'd recommend listening to "Carousel" before "Crazy Bitch."
Josh Todd was supposed to be the singer for Velvet Revolver...I'm not sure what happened, but I know the VR guys don't like him now.
And as for these guys trying to be cool...they lived the crazy drugged fueled LA life for so long, it gave them writing material. They're not trying, they did it. If you ever get to see Josh Todd close up, you can tell he spent too much time living hard.
but rock n roll will live forever! - ray davies

1. the band ahd the tattoos long before they formed a band. they all met becos they had the same tattoo artist.
2. deliberate? these guys lived it while you were still sucklin your momma's titty, and they were probly gang banging her while you did. there's no act in the band.
3. who said anything about rebellion? they write about their party lifestyle. nothings rebellious about it.
4. originality is fucking over-rated. radiohead went original and they blew. since axl's ego exploded guns'n'roses, somebody needed to put some ass-kicking back into rock. i dont know about you, but im tired of pussy rock. queens of the stone age can kiss my ass. oasis is excellent, but they're mellowing with age. i for one am glad we've still got a band that i can see kicking the shit out of fallout boy in a bar brawl. we need more of that.
Look at these weakass bands that keep putting out records - "Modest Mouse" for example. Sounds like a band that some whiney 16 year old would listen to, complaining about how he's misunderstood and how it angers him that people stare at him when he wears all black and eyeliner at the friggin mall. Spending his time thinking about the eeeeevils of capitalism as he plays video games and listens to his iPod for hours on end.
We need bands like Buckcherry & JET to balance it out....
This is a PJ board so some wienies on here will probably cry about this, but here is a great quote by Zakk Wylde. I am posting it b/c he probably thinks there is too much weak music on the radio right now, too.
"That's the difference between the lyrics I write and a band like Pearl Jam. For example: Let's say you save up enough dough to buy a fucking case of Raw Ass - it's the worst tasting beer we can buy, but that's all we got the money for - you're out in front of the liquor store, and some guy puts it in the back of his truck and fucking takes off. "Motherfucker! We just lost our beer and the dough!" Eddie Vedder will fucking whine about it, being a pussy, and write a song about being a wuss and how it's crushed his fucking life now cause this asshole drove off with his beer. Come to Black Label, man! What we do is, we get his license plate number, find out where he fuckin' lives, go down, smash his truck with a cinder blocks through the windshield, get the beer, then light his house on fire, get drunk, and write a song about it. That's the way Black Label handles it, man! It's pure fucking comedy at it's best!!"
No shit. People want to think there has to be some cosmic shit going on for a band to make music. No. Buckcherry had the same tattoo artist, met each other, and said hey, let's write songs about getting all lit up again and put out a record. Everything doesn't have to be about being misunderstood or about global warming to be valid.
That was great! That some funny shit.
Buckcherry still sucks though.
If I wanna rock I go for the real stuff. AC/DC.
i think you'll find this is pretty unpopular here. music HAS to be about very serious topics to be legit. it has to be about heartbreak or politics. then it is art. music as celebration and having a good time is frowned upon because it is shallow.
for instance, jailhouse rock by elvis was not a song that was about elvis dancing in the movies. it was a pointed critique of our prison society. that's why he's the king. there was nothing fun about his music.
AC/DC'S FUN! What about Have a Drink On Me!
Motley Crue is rumored to be teaming up with several other acts from the
Tenth Street Entertainment management stable - Buckcherry, Papa Roach, and Drowning Pool - for a U.S. tour that will kick off in early July.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that the trek will go out under the moniker
Cruefest - which is not to be confused with the association that organizes
concerts at various locations around the world throughout the year to raise
money for the various Crue-affiliated charities (including Skylar Neil
Memorial Fund, Nikki Sixx's Running Wild in the Night foundation, Tommy
Lee's charity of choice St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Mick Mars'
charity Spondylitis Association of America).
Crue will officially announce its touring plans on April 15 in Los Angeles,
according to a press release. All four members of the group will be present
at a location yet to be determined for what the release hyped as "by
far...one of the biggest music announcements of the year!!" The band is also
launching a contest in which one grand prize winner from each major city in
the country will be flown to Los Angeles to cover the announcement, complete with a chance to interview the band and have the interview broadcast live. Details can be found at the official Crue site.
The band is currently working on its ninth studio album and first featuring
all four original members since 1997's "Generation Swine". Bassist Nikki
Sixx said in an online posting, "Tommy's (Lee, drums) kickin' ass, Vince
(Neil, vocals) sounds insane and (Mick) Mars is shredding on guitars. It
doesn't feel like one song is better or worse than any other. It feels so
good to be excited about something you've worked on so hard...I'm so excited
for you all to hear it."
The album, titled "The Dirt" after the group's memoir of the same name, is
tentatively due out on July 8.
That ranks amongst the worst tours ever
