Title: not as cool as american idol but...
Post by: bignewt on May 16, 2008, 05:05 PM
Maxim magazine reviewed Evil Urges , gave it 3 1/2 stars. Pretty cool review too in typical sarcastic Maxim speak. Referred to Remnants as a back room Meth lab explosion or something to that effect. I would transcribe but its Friday afternoon and there is Wild Turkey to attend to. Cheers!

And can we please stop with the American Idol threads on the board? i dont care if Paula Abdul sings Honest Man while chopping angel dust on the judging table, just having that show's name on our board disgraces all we stand for here. Those of you who watch should all be ashamed of yourselves. Seriously.

....and scene.

Maxim probably hasn't even heard it.

I was flipping through the new issue of Mix and there was a blurb about Joe Chiccarelli doing work at Blackbird Studio in Nashville, and mentions that they did overdubs for Evil Urges there.

Don't pay any attention to Maxim.  They gave My Chemical Romance 5 stars and heralded it as an instant classic.  Thumbs down.
