Upcoming Bullshit

DEPSWA’S RETURN FINALLY IMMINENT

 Monday, January 4th, 2010 at 3:30pm by

Vince got stranded while on his way back from vacation (thus my egregious amount of posting today), but I’m sure he’d be happy to know that it looks like Depswa are about to finally release a new album. And it only took them six or seven years! Having apparently now forgone the label route altogether, the band will release Distorted American Dream on their own label, Tears & Smiles Recordings, sometime in February. SMN reports that the band has hired Toby Wright and Logan Mader to mix the thing, which means they ain’t dicking around. You hire dudes like that ’cause, at the very least, you’d like to be taken seriously.

I was never as big a Depswa fan as Vince is, but I do think their song “This Time” is a ridiculously catchy piece of pop metal. Seriously, I can’t even listen to it as I embed this video, for fear it will get stuck in my head and ruin the rest of my day.

    dammit, I should have listened to the warning about the catchiness

    More bizarre contradictions on Metal Sucks – this and Skunk Anansie are championed but you single a band like Cold out for ridicule on the grounds of being terrible. Quelle difference?

  • thethingonthesingerforportalshead

    i dont think its catchy at all

    over emotive nu metal incubus influenced rock that doesnt even rock,its that beat that doesnt go up tempo or too slow,its just enough for radio rock

    but to each their own

    Shinedown called, they would love to have Depswa open for them!

  • Joshie

    Depswa and Necro are the only two bands that I’ve ever witnessed being booed off stage. Just sayin’.

  • thethingonthesingerforportalshead

    this band is just whatever,theyre a band…but theres some serious over exaggerating on the authors part about the catchiness…i watched the whole thing,and when i was done,none of it stuck in my head

    and fucked up things can stick in your head you know?

    This sucks.

    Why would you put this song and video up, they even admitted to being forced to put this song out by the record labe. it being a thorn in there side and it was co-written by a writer they were coerced to collaborate with by the label and Howard Benson, the band has a lot more to offer than this and is completely different band at now in terms of style.
