Gonna stay young forever? The Subways reckon so...

............don't buy this album. You know how it will encourage them.

but seriously....'oh yeah' was okay - is that what it was called?
but the new single - like - why are people buying this, theres no craft in it.

cocky little fuckers as well

bands like this give me arseache

I can't believe they were recording their album in Liverpool and I couldn't be bothered to go down and firebomb the studio.

Harlow Square Harlow Square

anyone else think these sound exactly the same as the vines ?

NO!
i love them, and i will profess my love now. if you see them live then you would probably fall in love with them too.
and the singer isn't annoying he's a sweetie.

Sorry, but the Vines comparison extremely annoys me.


When I first read about 'the new Vines', I got my hopes up, seeing as Vines aren't doing anything. When I heard 'oh yeah', I was disappointed to say the least.

I don't think they're dreadful, but they aren't good either. They sound like Jet to me, and will probably have the same kind of career:
NME hyped, supporting big act, debut gets an average rating, release an annoying, over-played single, get in the top ten and then just buggar off. Oh and, through the process, DiS users will begin to despise them.

i saw a video on mtv once and it was the most generic thing id ever seen, makes sense that they're supporting Weezer in Brum tonite.

i've seen them live and i thought they were cocky -tho energetic so two stars for that- but with all this 'rock star' attitude that they really shouldnt have cos the music wasnt that inspiring. and half the blokes who were there just seemed to be drooling over the blond one in a short skirt who looked about 12.

oh come on there not that bad. altho having said the jonathan ross style lryical stylings in the chorus are pretty funny

oh come on they really are that bad!! I swear they played the same song approx 4 times in Norwich last week, I honestly don't believe they're even trying&it's actually insulting they have got this far.

I've seen them a couple of times: their much vaunted glastonbury appearance on the other stage last year, and on their recent tour in cambridge, where they were supported by the chalets (my reason for going).

Both times i've been underwhelmed. They play ok garage rock by numbers, but its nothing special and a lot of the songs sound very similar. Personally I prefer the von bondies take on this sort of stuff.

Livvy1 it doesnt make me a 'loser' to criticise a band who i just dont think are very good. Sure, i may not be able to do any better myself, or even as good. But equally that doesnt make their music good, nor does it invalidate my opinion. Furthermore, i dont just criticse bands, i also praise the ones that i like. If you're interested in checking this, then how about looking at my comments on the review of the subways and chalets gig in cambridge.

I was a bit harsh to be fair, i'm an old weezer fan tho, ican't listen past Pinkerton, although some of those demos that they put on their site a few years back were wicked, 'hey domingo' was one of them, that was brilliant. :)

Holy shit, the subways and oasis on the same night? Poor fucker

All you lot... grow up? They're a cracking live band. I work as a sound engineer and seen over 1000 bands in the last 2 years alone - and these guys stand up well to any other band I've seen.

They are young peeps and they have a swagger on stage, but off stage they are lovely, and they spent more time with the fans after the show than any other band I can think of.

If you don't like them, fine. Just don't slate them for no other reason than the fact that you don't like their music,

the subways rule.. saw them live and absolutely lurrrved them!

I think people should stop trying to over analyse this band, its just fun simple music stop trying to look for something more cause you wont find it. If you dont get the concept of fun music you will never like the subways.
