I'm sure the preorders for new AVA release will include a $200 donation to TTS or something crooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had an AVA album in 2014, pipe down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knapppers Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 I think David used to have some input on the music. If you watch start the machine, it looks like he gets to have some say. Atleast back then he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it was an official release I think they mean - the first release as a 4 piece unit since 2011. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes sweetie, I know that. But it’s also a fact that it’s been 7 years since AVA released an album as a band with David and Matt. So.. @The Dog From Frasier Exactly!

And please, stop calling me sweetie when we disagree. It makes you sound like a condescending sexist twat. I know you only do it to rile me up but as a tip, women in general hate that - if you ever want to get laid in the future I'd drop that bullshit. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 matt was responsible for all the modular synth work on the love albums. they definately had a lot of impact on the love albums... dream walker is still the best ava album so i dont really care if matt and david are onboard. i dont't think itd gonna happen anyway. tom should just shut his mouth about stuff, record the actual record. and when its done start anouncing it. promoting a record thats not even written, that is shit teenage bands starting out do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feeling_This_1 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Tom's a very busy man. That's why he has to schedule a studio day 6 weeks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also don’t you call people sweetie or honey when you’re trying to make a point? It’s one of those words along those lines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only uses it at me when we're arguing, he's using it specifically to undermine me. I use it both positively and negatively in any manner of situations and variety of people, it's not the same. Also, if that's the shining example of David's input I'm really not sure why anyones jumping up and down - that song is bloody awful.

Kay Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 It just seems that their input was incredibly minimal, I'm not exactly sure why everyones getting offended - were ya'll secret giant AVA fans during all this Tom bashing? The only AVA members input I ever rated was Atom's, because he's a solid drummer. the majority of AVA just sounds like Tom doing what Tom does. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 I have no idea who came and went in AVA throughout the years, I've always understood it to be Tom + backing musicians. But then again I think I've only ever heard 2 of their albums or so, so I can't really be much help here I guess haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 i always enjoyed ava, yes. Prefer the Tom/Rubin stuff by a mile though.. Not getting offended, just correcting your claim they had no input to the music. it was rather small, yes. but no way tom delonge knows how to operate a modular synth all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's mostly Tom, yes, but I feel like the earlier releases were so much better because they did have some semblance of a normal functioning band. The more independent Tom is allowed to be, the worse the music imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's pretty safe to say Mark and Tom balance eachother out a bit. That contrast was a pretty big part of the formula. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think another reason why the earlier AvA albums were better was because Tom was still in his prime at that point. 2010-2012 is when he began slipping - his voice starting going, his lyrics started becoming lame, his guitar riffs weren't that great, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
