Sounds familiar?
If not, that's the name of their first album. That's right, it's Angels and Airwaves and I have to at least have them in one of my posts. Now I'm not all obsessive about em, but I'm here to declare their upcoming and second album, "I-Empire".
Believe me, blogging bands stuff is so random but I'm here to prove you wrong about this one. Why? Because Angels and Airwaves is not just another ordinary rock band. They're not all completely rock, and that's what makes it so special.
First of all, Tom so has two sides of himself. The crazy a**hole don't give a f*ck singer/guitarist for Blink and BCR, and the very much toned down fatherly guy in AVA. Now putting his new band aside, I still think he sorta made the right decision by leaving the band. I know, it's sad but he left the band because he said he couldn't go on being the person he wants to be with his daughter, Ava and also making music with Blink. Imagine, being the crazy funny piss in my pants punk and going home being all good daddy with his daughter. I still vote for family first. Way to go, Tom!
About the music, I think it's way beyond indescribable because it's extremely melodic compared to what Blink and BCR was. It's so easy to be a loud and hardcore band, but how many bands actually played with good musicality and not jamming the shit out of themselves? If you think those guys rock, I think these guys rock even more because coming from different bands (Blink, BCR, The Distillers, The Offsprings) these guys set the same goals of wanting to make music that will change the world. Music that will make people look at the world at a different way, and also with the same priorities of friendship, respect and responsibility for their families. Lots of war, politics, God, airplanes, spacesuits and planets. NOBODY EVER MAKES SOUNDS LIKE THEM EVER BEFORE!
If you guys don't buy what I just said, buy the first album, "We Don't Need To Whisper" and hear it for yourselves. But please, don't expect anything like other rock emo crap ass bands.
On the other side, Pam just came back from Singapore and bought me a Macbeth Tee! Thank you thank youu! Apparently, there's this place called Image2001 that sells tees like Macbeth, FSAS, Atticus and again, all other crap bands. The good thing is, these babies are originals, and you can't find ONE original Macbeth tee here in Malaysia. Hell, I've never even seen a fake one before!. Well, correct me if I'm wrong, please do inform me if any of you has seen them. Plus, the same store sells bloody Macbeth shoesss. Holy shmoly!! And yeah by the way, the Macbeth company is founded by Tom too!
Thanks to Pam again that I knew about AVA. Man, she's one Tom lover!
