Aria Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 A lot of my friends refer to them as one hit wonders, but jumper, how's it gonna be, graduate, never let you go... just to name a few debunk that right away. I'm gonna go over the must listen to songs on each record, that aren't singles.THIRD EYE BLINDhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ8wVKPUN_g - MOTORCYCLE DRIVE BY (holy shit) >https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yroFsBCuMxw - NARCOLEPSY https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RQqpjtWG9EQ - I WANT YOU (I have a tattoo for this track) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vz2tL6Xavhg - GOD OF WINE BLUEhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XTKM4EEfb68 - WOUNDED https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GxHmgvAei_Q - THE RED SUMMER SUN https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3MTbYve31BA - SLOW MOTION (Come on. Art.) OUT OF THE VEINhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KdTnN_qrfeM - FASTER (I always blast the bridge and sing along on point and it's fucking awesome. ) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OTe1uSrzyh8 - GOOD MAN (Every moment overflows with power, 66,000 miles an hour) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_xk-nKh3t2Y - MY HIT AND RUN (So many memories with this one) URSA MAJORhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgb7vsyF92Q - ABOUT TO BREAK (One of my favorite songs they've ever made. "When I see your face I wanna be in the human race. You're beautiful, it's true. I want to be beautiful like you.") https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r-PEJcU8UY4 - SHARP KNIFE https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4FqOPCj0Wp8 - SUMMER TOWN I honestly love everything they've put out and I wish more people listened to their deeper cuts, cause I view them the same way I do Blink, where pretty much their entire catalogue is a 'single' in my eyes. And their new single:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lyRzEoGfuZc 1 Quote
Jon Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 I don't think I've ever given them a listen tbh. Hopefully I find some stuff I like. Quote
Chewy030 Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 These guys were the first Rock concert i ever went to. Amazing show. Quote
decisions Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Love this band's first three albums. Not really sure if I care about anything after that considering the lineup changes...But hey, I'll give the new album a listen when it comes out. Quote
_Kyle_ Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Wasn't there a second 3rd eye blind with two or three original members minus Jenkins? Quote
Patient #48273 Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Yeah, I think Kevin Cadogan and Arion Salazar played a few shows or something under the name XEB. Stephan Jenkins' douchebaggery cannot be understated. He'd make Delonge look like a good guy. Quote
_Kyle_ Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 I like he said he wrote Never Let You Go about Charlize Theron. Quote
Patient #48273 Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Probably 80%+ of OOTV is about Charlize Theron. 1 Quote
Aria Posted May 8, 2015 Author Posted May 8, 2015 I always felt like faster was the one about her. Quote
decisions Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Can someone educate me on why Jenkins is such a dick? Obviously the Cadogan split has douchebag written all over it but I never felt like I knew why everyone hates him so much... Quote
Patient #48273 Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 The guitarist who replaced Cadogan, Tony Fredianelli, was also kicked out. And the whole situation was very conniving. You can read about it here. This is a pretty good story. Their former manager, Eric Godtland, ghostwrote some/a lot of the early work. (This doesn't necessarily make Jenkins a douche, it's just that people like to praise him for his lyrics and it's maybe not warranted.) I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff, but should be a good start. He's just a giant narcissist. Quote
decisions Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Interesting. Love his voice though.Now I really don't think I would ever care for this band's newer music... Quote
Aria Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 I love Jenkins.And this is one of the funniest interviews I've ever seen: >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BG_HwQbES0 Interviewer: Favorite pickup lineJenkins: "Would you and your friend like to go down on me?" Quote
Aria Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 and the whole XEB thing is fucking hilarious and pretty sad. Quote
_Kyle_ Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Guy seems a little off to me. Like he's notoriously been shitty to his band mates, but who knows. Quote
Knapppers Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Have got two songs off their new album and im really liking them Quote
allsystemsgo Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 I've become a big fan of this band after seeing Aria mention them. The same for Unwritten Law. Quote
