Marc Colombo is getting better. Their new album will be coming out in November.

Not bad at all.

Not bad at all.

Major improvement from some of the other stuff I heard.

And that's not a great copy of it either.

 

[Kevinicus]

Not bad at all.

How can you tell with all the distortion?

Is there a decent quality version anywhere?

It is ok but then again I do not have high hopes they will be any good.

The group or the O-Line?

 

[adbutcher]

I can see getting hype to this before a game. Not bad at all.

If it weren't for their big names this would be no better than your neighborhood teenage metal band. I'm glad they're multi-talented though.

 

[Kilyin]

I dunno, that's pretty terrible. It's almost as bad as watching Procter play football for this team.

agreed.
You can tell with the trained ear that any inkling of sounding good is the direct result of "studio magic" and the one guy who actually is a guitarist and not a football player.

These guys are pretty bad but I don't have anything against them having fun and having lives outside of football. I just hope they don't get it twisted that they're being featured and growing popular because of who they are (NFL players) and not what they are (a wannabe heavy metal band).

When they can do this, call me.

YEah right. A lot of "professionals" can't do that. Still, the Free Reign song isn't too bad... kinda liked it even.

There is nothing you can do, haters are going to hate.

Actually, Procter is very good at drums.

You can hear their less polished material elsewhere and they are very clearly talented musicians (at least at drums and guitar, which is all that matters in metal music).

Bass is bass, you could teach a monkey to play it well enough to not be a distraction.

Colombo can't really sing, but on the whole this is a good bit beyond "teenagers in a garage band" material. In addition to be talented musicians, they have a knack for writing music.

 

[Kilyin]

Not hating to hate, that just sounds really bad. I don't know if it's supposed to sound all distorted, but whatever. The singing is totally off key as well.

 

[fannypack]

Skilled? yes.
sound good? no.

Fixed the first part. The second part is opinion. Let's face it, the amount of skill these guys have pretty much lies within every average metal band in your local neighborhood. They've got the limelight due to their names alone.
