whosnotwo Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 you guys seriously are excited about this? These guys suck balls and were considered absolute garbage in the 90s. But hey, why let quality get in the way of a little nostalgia. NorrisNuts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oblivions Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 They have little credibility outside of their fan base and people who enjoy that specific slice of mid-90s cheesy ska but, for me, outside of We're Not Happy, every full length delivers a sarcastic, guitar-heavy dose of dumb, entertaining fun for those looking for it. There's a place for culturally relevant, well-reviewed, important bands and there's also a place for bands that just play guitar and toot some horns and have fun without worrying about being the former. RBF are also very fun live, although I haven't seen them in maybe 10 years so someone would have to let me know if that's changed. All that said, it totally makes sense why someone would not like them and ignore them but God bless and have fun using your own time to proclaim it to people who dig them.

museummouth Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Agree on how fun they are/were live. Same boat haven’t seen them in around a decade but they were always great live. Hopefully Cheer Up! And Our Live Album get pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oblivions Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 (edited) Overall, RBF fans are some of the dumbest, worst people but one good thing about them is that they will always make time for people who need someone with which to talk. If you ever feel like connecting, whether it's in person or online, I recommend hitting up a RBF thread or meetup and they'll give you their attention and time and do it with a sense of humor.

I don't really care. I was just sharing my opinion about their live show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyregret Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 As much as I still love ska, I feel like RBF is just a band I'm not really interested in anymore. That being said, every summer I will listen to Turn The Radio Off and WDTRSH a few times. I will also say that I think Cheer Up is their best album and Aaron Barrett can take a huge dump on 95% of the guitarists in the world.

Oblivions Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 As far as "is this still entertaining to me today?", here is my ranking: 1. Why Do They Rock So Hard? 2. Candy Coated Fury 3. Everything Sucks 4. Monkeys For Nothing 5. Turn the Radio Off 6. Cheer Up 7. We're Not Happy... I don't count the covers LP or any EPs, as I listen to those the least by far. Turn the Radio Off, for some reason, doesn't do much for me anymore but the rest of the stuff has aged better, IMO. We're Not Happy will always be the sound of a fun band not having fun on recordings that were ruined but had to be used anyway because they had no money to re-record.

MyEnemy Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 (edited) Understand what @whosnotwo says. But coming from someone who either only talks shit or comments sincerely on DMB threads, you might wanna keep your shitty opinions to yourself. That being said, bummed I don’t own this record.
