Everyday is so so so so so (count em' 5) much tighter than many (?) of their albums. Tico you may be right but musically superior - NO. they're mediocre songs. some of the licks are kinda catchy but shit, the instruments are used sparingly to say the least. the drums are pretty phat though. I like Everyday. did I mention that? its a good cd to pop in while your driving down the highway. ya know. its not terribly good music. its a great production, just that the songs are pretty weak. did I mention I liked it?
good, and you?

everyday as an album is better than busted stuff, not that the songs are better, but it was more adventurous, put together better, and tight, busted stuff lacked that.

i would just like to say that i had no clue everyday was written in 10 days, and that if dave can come up with that many lyrics/riffs in that short amount of time, then that dave deserves a lot more credit for that cd. :oops:

There are certainly valid objections to the manner in which the songs were arranged and recorded, and I do not like every song on the album by a long shot (check my response in the "worst song" thread).

However, ever since the album came out, it's been "cool" to rag on Everyday, for whatever reason. Whether people were upset simply because Lillywhite wasn't involved, or that Ballard was (due to his "pop" background), people rag on it a lot of times for emotional reasons, not musical ones.

If you just don't feel the album; the lyrics and music don't fit your ear; you dislike the smaller role played by Roi and Boyd; I say, rock on. You've evaluated the disc, and you have presented some reasoning behind your opinion.

But when you discredit every song on the album, simply because it's Everyday, you're missing the boat. It's the purely emotional tantrums thrown by some supposed "adults" that piss me off.

Sorry for the rant. :shock: :)

No apology required...I agree completely.

Peace,

P.S. - I like Everyday

Every song on the album was writen in 10 days!?

Or is it that he was playing around with the songs/lyrics and it was just produced and recorded in 10 days...

Boy, it is alot easier to write music when you lead your own band...

Actually I think it was 11 days but Dave and Ballard sat down in a studio and wrote songs and then later that day recorded them... the entire album minus mixing was completely done in 11 days... thats it....

i *love* everyday. i bought it the same day i bought Aenimia by Tool... and listened to them consecutively... great cd(s) :) everyday isnt a cd like before these crowded streets... that i listen to for inspiration or recording advice... but it is a cd that i find very solid, just not as interesting as utad and b4.. . the energy is there thuogh,dave has the passion :)

you cant argue with sales, everyday hit #1 faster and more aggressive then most of their cds.

probably because more people knew about them.. i think they were getting a lot more publicity than what i had seen of them when everyday came out.
