scottheisel Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I love love love OnGuard's cover of "Give My Love To Rose." I think it's the best song on the disc. I also think the Flatliners did a great job with "Cry, Cry, Cry." Gaslight totally dropped the ball with "God's Gonna Cut You Down." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riddle350 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I'm actually pretty dissapointed with it overall. There's a few tracks I enjoy but overall it's kind of meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadetapplesauce Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 hahahaha wow the loved ones cover is fucking AWFUL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlock Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 EDIT. on a second listen, it's not as bad as i thought. defnitely some crap though. the loved ones totally killed one of my favorite cash songs, assholes. i have all the colors coming for the gaslight collection but i'm wondering how often i'll be listening. and that's kinda saddening. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddle350 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I'm glad I didn't order the vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadetapplesauce Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 ben nichols, jay shevchuk, the dude from L=D and russ rankin have the best songs. the smoke or fire guy cover is pretty alright too. the rest: thumbs down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 sounds pretty damn good to me Agreed. Overall it's pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtz Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I'm glad I didn't order this. The OnGuard and Russ Rankin tracks are good, and the Mxpx one is okay. The rest of it I was not into at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Overall I really like it. Joe Mcmahon's cover of Let The Train Whistle Blow is awesome. Also, fairly disappointed with the Gaslight Anthem cover. Flatliners take the cake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddieruckus Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 the fallen from the sky cover is great, my roommate just started playing guitar for those guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtw88 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 What a tribute to mediocrity. The only good songs were Chuck Ragan, Jason Shevchuk, Russ Rankin, Chon Travis, and the Flatliners. The rest bordered from bad to terrible to unlistenable. The Gaslight Anthem song is second worst behind the Dresden Dolls. It's a shame that some of you felt you had drop drop $50 to secure 4 of these turds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smailtronic Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Yeah, glad I didn't drop money on this one. The acts that stayed truer to the original song form sound much better. The folks that tried to "make it theirs" failed. If they released a 7" with the MxPx and Flatliners tracks, I'd buy that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaggle Von Swift Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I'm actually pretty dissapointed with it overall. There's a few tracks I enjoy but overall it's kind of meh. agreed. it's really not that good at all. maybe it'll grow on me at some point reallllly disappointed with the Loved Ones cover.

AlexH. Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I was really expecting more out of this comp. Most were too faithful to the source material, and the Dresden Dolls cover was just sort of WTF. I will probably sell my VC exclusive.
