There is a reason they were chosen as the opening act for Live Aid. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea but they know how to work a crowd

Yep. As has been said above, they’re a cash juggernaut and will continue to be so until the next one comes along.

I will just leave this here, a singer who actually sings in the same style as Britney, until she doesn’t.

I will say I feel disrespected

I’d say you and their millions of other fans are in a good spot to laugh at criticism :slight_smile:

BTW, they are running this video ad on a billboard near my office advertising their new album “The other one”. So it sounds like they are teasing a third singer again.

They aren’t really my bag but I love love love the backing band, as always. World class.

Interesting reaction to a song about bullying :rofl:

John Taylor is a fantastic and underrated bass player.

I wasn’t criticising the lyrics; I have to be honest here, I have no idea what the song is about, I didn’t get that far. It’s the racket they were making, I ran out of my office screaming until it stopped.

He’s one of my favourites :+1:

Maria Brink meets Til Lindermann with a side of Marilyn Manson. Me like.

Um, why do you feel disrespected?

After 10 years of experiencing this and worse you think I would get used to it. Usually the call me a pedophile along with the rest. Hit me wrong yesterday, probably didn’t expect it here.

When they were starting out, the crowd would laugh at them on stage. Su says that made her smile to herself, it was working. It’s never bothered them. I don’t have their equanimity. I want to punch back, so I just didn’t.

Yes, if we read the portents from the Fox God, we get a new member on 4/1. And hopefully it’s Momoko. The girls have refused a third member from Koba for a few years now. Seems they are finally ready to move on. Contrary to popular opinion, the girls pretty much run the show. They choose the songs, mix, choreography.

Their new album dropped yesterday

@John_E I’ve had this for years, it’s a great album. Guns of Brixton, another one of my favourite bass lines.

Fun Fact: Whilst Paul Simonon played the bass on the studio recording of this song, when performing it live, him and Joe Strummer used to swap bass and rhythm guitar. Paul Simonon apparently couldn’t play the bass line and sing the song at the same time.

Understand, this just isn’t a friendly forum to me anymore

Wow, I really dig that. The music is super cool, her voice is really nice on the ears, and then they drop the hard stuff. I’m going to have to check them out more.

These songs perfectly highlights Tatiana’s abilities as a metal vocalist. She moves back and forth voice wise effortlessly. This was done in one take. I “discovered” Jinjer about 3-4 years ago and they are on rotation in my Android Auto.
