kriss Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 ^ in a nutshell, yeah. Also, I've never actually looked at that poster before for longer than a few seconds to notice the people at the bottom. If taken out of context, this could be taken as advertising a romantic comedy/zombie movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yancey47 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Take a dump on your record player, turn it on, put the needle down and violá that familiar Goo Goo Dolls sound is now blasting from your speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almightyseancore Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 the first three albums are all you need, dude.boy named goo, maybe. but jud and car wash are where it's at. Superstar Car Wash was their fourth album. oh? so what am i missing. jud, carwash, selftitled...and then goo, no? guess i'm about to wiki me some pedia. edit: i had mistaken hold me up for self titled, and assumed jed was their first. well, their 2nd - 4th albums are decent, imo. i should check out their debut s/t.

All joking aside, I really do wonder exactly how this would sound but have no desire to attempt it. Probably just like the needle dragging across a label or something.

joshnotgood Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I'm a fan but there's no denying they have some weak stuff. Best thing recently was that song on one of those Transformers soundtracks. That was good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appendicitis Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Thought some Brendan Kelly fans may find this relevant to the thread - his quote.. "Goo Goo Dolls Hold me Up- I’m dead serious when I say that this is the record that the Lawrence Arms entire program is based on. Listen to it and you’ll see. The bassist sings faster, raspier more aggressive songs and the guitar player sings the more melancholy or thoughtful jammers with a clean voice that dampens panties up to 2 miles away. I actually sing the way I do based on just trying to imitate the bass player dude’s voice when I was younger. Yes, they’ve gone on to be this toxic avenger version of Bon Jovi that makes the soundtrack to middle aged moms masturbating by candlelight in their jaccuzzis, but man…this record killed me when it came out. Great prince cover too, and I tend to hate shit like that." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Loyd Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I'm not a big fan of their last few, but I'd love to own Superstar Car Wash, Boy Named Goo and Dizzy up the Girl on vinyl. Those records are pretty damn great IMO. Surprised none of those have ever been pressed on Vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxmartinxx Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I'm really surprised with all these major labels going through their back catalogs and reissuing things on vinyl that the Goo Goo Dolls catalog has gone overlooked. I'd love to own "Super Star Carwash" and I'd probably buy "Boy Named Goo", too. Damn you Warner Brothers. chiefwahoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking that since they released the last record on vinyl that their eyes are at least open to it now. First time ever on vinyl for those 2 at least would seemingly be a decent money maker for WB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinylfilmaholic Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 They should do a boxset of all the WB albums like the Disturbed, Deftones and Flaming Lips. I would pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filthyrich Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 you must not have heard the 80s albums No way man... Hold Your Fire might be terrible, but Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures, and Signals are up there with the best albums they ever made. (I'm also partial to Grace Under Pressure and Presto.) That said, everything after Roll The Bones and before Snakes & Arrows is super hit-and-miss... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filthyrich Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I'll admit that Superstar Car Wash and A Boy Named Good are great, scuzzy pop-rock records... The songs where Johnny is trying his hardest to be Paul Westerberg are top-notch. Dizzy starts to get over-produced but the songwriting is strong enough to power through. (Still can't listen to Iris tho.) After that the albums become indistinguishable for me. So basically, I'd buy SCW and ABNG and DUTG if/when WB and Metal Blade decide to those those right. C'mon, if the SPIN DOCTORS can get a vinyl issue.... chiefwahoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Stand Still being on that record alone makes Hold Your Fire a keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
