Good god, that canadian bumfluff Bovril Lavigne (or whatever she's called) is playing here soon. Whats the world coming too? About the only skater boys she's going to find are the sad-acts who hang around the Central Bank in the big schmoke!!! But on the upside, Raging Speedhorn are playing at the end of january. Yaaayyyyy!!!!!

Rolo Tomasi · 10-01-2003 5:49pm

I dont think its even worth mentioning her name on the Rock/Metal board!! Its pop music, you've heard of that before, right?

eth0_ · 10-01-2003 5:57pm

Guys guys. Haven't you heard her cover of SOAD's 'Chop suey'?
The girl is metal though and through.

bahahah!

As for Raging Speedhorn....in the _tivoli_? Hopefully the sound will be better there than the last time I saw them play Ireland.

Its not that we hate her music or nething (yeah right) its just that she goes around sayin "pop sucks" "i am a rocker" "dont call me pop princess , i am a rocker chick"
NOW who the hell goes around labeling themselves that much ? no one , not even manky temple bar kids , check out the review on her anyway (link posted above)

Funky · 10-01-2003 8:03pm

she's the prettiest thing in pop atm so she's forgiven

[used pretty instead of hot because hot might make you think that i actually like her music :rolleyes ]

Gordon · 10-01-2003 8:08pm

I thought her name was Bovril Lasagne

eth0_ · 10-01-2003 8:11pm

Actually i'd forgotten about that placebo, the fact she's an out and out liar, she says she wrote the guitars on her album herself, and play guitar but it's well known she's not a guitar player. When have you ever seen her play guitar on tv for instance.

Also, she claimed to have written most of the songs on her album when she was 15. Yet apparently she has least songwriting credits on the CD :-D

I dont' hate her for her music...If she didn't claim to be something she is so obviously NOT (a punk) then I would have no beef with her at all.

Robbo · 10-01-2003 8:26pm

Those pre-stylist days in full...

Also, so what if she doesn't write all the songs? Given modern super producers in the vein of Dr Dre, Rick Rubin and Ross Robinson, there's not many who can still claim "complete control" whilst enjoying success.

Robbo · 10-01-2003 8:53pm

I've just listened to it. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. It makes Kittie seem worthwhile.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 10-01-2003 8:59pm

where did you find it!
i want¬!

nothing can make kittie seem worthwhile

D-Generate · 11-01-2003 12:04am

The song is only a recording from a concert, it's clearly a pisstake and not serious. I got it from Kazaa. Search "Avril Chop"

Placebo · 11-01-2003 5:26pm

Some one explain to me why she is pop and Nirvana aren't?

Nirvana are grunge , they started a whole new era and their lyrics dont include "he was a skater boy" they never claimed themseleves GRUNGE , NON POP , i remember in an interview they said , "we are who you think we are , pop , grunge whatever"

where as avril say " i am a rocker " "my music is not pop"

DiscoStu · 11-01-2003 5:29pm

she now has a computer virus named after her.
what an honour.

eth0_ · 11-01-2003 5:51pm

I'd call Nirvana pop...pop as in POPULAR but they're by no means in the same bracket as 'pop music'....like uh...the **** they play on MTV hits et all.

As I said, i've no problems with Avril's music per se, it's the fact she's such a liar....I mean that 'complicated' song is about how sad it is to try and be someone you're not...hmm is that autobiographical Avril? heh.

Placebo · 11-01-2003 6:38pm

i've no problems with Avril's music

thats true , i find her songs catchy and all , but shes full of **** .

Saying Nirvana can't be pop because it is grunge is incorrect because 'Pop' is not a genre in the first place. Pop is simply a measure of how much a musical product has entered popular culture. Hence the name. People who use the term 'pop music' to describe the term 'manufactured music' are misusing the term and should really stop before they find themselves at cross purposes.

Let me assure you that Nirvana is 'pop' as much as Atomic Kitten is pop. What distinguishes the two is that Atomic Kitten have been deliberately and unashamedly constructed to fill an established market for a particular type of music. Bands like Nirvana on the other hand just happen to take an existing musical form and present it in an accessible way that may or may not appeal to the masses at large. I'm not saying that one way is more legitimate than the other but clearly 'cool' people 'in the know' seem to prefer the latter method.

Stuff like Avril Benign, Scum 41 and the rest are a kind of cross fertilisation of the previous two because whilst they sell themselves on the image of 'so called' credible bands like Nirvana when it is patently obvious that they are as pre-constructed as any boy or girl band (if not more-so).

As such I'd find Bovril Lavigne to be even less worthy than, say for example, Westlife.

Of what? Bands who wanted to look and sound like Nirvana? That's sounds like a bold concept that even Pete Waterman or Louis Walsh could have come up with ... had they been bothered.

Sample Nirvana Lyrics :
'Gotta find a way To find a way When I'm there
Gotta find a way, A better way. I had better wait.
Never met a wise man, If so it's a woman.
Just because you're paranoid Don't mean they're not after you.'

I'm sure Shakespeares glad he didn't have to compete with that! Plus the last line's not even original.

Placebo · 11-01-2003 7:15pm

bleh , anti nirvana , eh /

Of what? Bands who wanted to sound like Nirvana? That's sounds like a bold concept that even Pete Waterman or Louis Walsh could have come up with had they been bothered.

They started a whole new era meaning , whole new style of music and thats how they got famous .

I dont know much about Nirvana but they are usually categorised under the Grunge category , where as Atomic kitten would be under the Pop category , i didnt make up the rules so dont kill the messenger

Stuff like Avril Benign, Scum 41 and the rest are a kind of cross fertilisation

lol

Sample Nirvana Lyrics :

They have other worse lyrics like.

i quoted "skater boy" cause shes bragging on about how shes this ROCK/PUNK chick.

I admit i was probabaly wrong here "Nirvana are grunge , they started a whole new era and their lyrics dont include "he was a skater boy" "

fisty · 11-01-2003 7:39pm

i would like to get avril and **** her while slapping her arse and screaming "he was a sk8ter boi i said see you later boi" and then punch her in the back of the head.

Er... somehow I don't think Kharn runs that site.

I can't imagine him calling himself "BiZkiTrOacH" and saying things like "...msg me on AIM and I'll always reply unless youre lame LOL!"

^CwAzY^ · 11-01-2003 9:17pm

God those pics really opened my eyes. I couldn't see through all the eyeshadow to reveal her true.......... beauty? Haha
Saying that though some of her songs are catchy.
