Anybody heard the new Flobots single "White Flag Warrior (Feat Tim McIlrath of Rise Against)" ? [YOUTUBE]Lsgbb23z27w[/YOUTUBE] i LOVE it
Can't stand these guys, their entire catalog is like a band doing an awful Cake impression using Rise Againsts (hey hey imagine that) "Hero of War" as the only source of lyrical inspiration. It's beyond me how these guys are so popular. Though Rise Against themselves are fucking superb and I do like Tims parts on this.
They're more like Cake instrumentally, "Handlesbars" specifically. Not just because of the horns, the entire song sounds like a Cake tribute. Haven't listened to this album, but most of Fight With Tools and what little I heard from the EP sounded like that to me. And despite the name, the Flobots have no sense of flow.
Love them. Planning on seeing them in May. And as a fan of Cake and Flobots, I really don't see how they sound anything alike.
