I agree with RMadd. I think it'd be awesome to see Myles write more of the lyrics for the next AB album. He did such an awesome job with the lyrics for MF4, so I'm sure he'd write some great lyrics for the next AB album.

I also agree with all the songs you listed as five star songs, RMadd. Those are all my favorites by MF4.

I do, Broken Wings, Open Your Eyes and Down to My Last really sound Creedish to me, but there are other songs that have a non-Creedish feel. I think some of these songs were written on the Weathered tour, so it's natural for them to have a Creed flavor. I don't think MF4 is all that mellow, but it does have its ballads and slower songs, like Summergirl, which I just love. As long as it's honest music, I'll always give it a chance.

But BW is dark and moody, with no hope... DTML doesn't have a catchy chorus as well... I think...

Imo, the most Creedish lyrics is One Day Remains. Maybe it's just a coincidence but I love this song, it's my fav.

I'm talking sound-wise more than lyrically, I guess. Those three songs sound Creedish to me. ODR sort of does, but not as much. I do love that one, too.

soundwise? OYE uses the same tone as My Sacrifice, but I wouldn't say Creedish... I'd say Markish!!! :D

LOL....My Sacrifice -- Creed, hence Creedish :D. That's no slight or anything :)

The lyrics definitely aren't Creedish at all, in my opinion. The music....yeah, I can see the resemblence on some of the songs. OYE and DTML being the main songs I can hear the similarities, but I think that comes from the fact that it is the same guys who wrote the music for Creed, so of course it's going to sound a bit similar.

I'm hoping Myles has a greater input in the next album 'cause the guy is a very good songwriter. Not much point having that talent there and just being Mark's voicebox.

In my opinion AB will always have a Creed flavor. We had 3 members of Creed there and the sound that they know to do is this sound, not Creedish, but Markish, Phillipish and Marshallish.

Of course, Myles can bring something new to the scene, but we still have the three guys there. And I think this is not bad. In my opinion is amazing, cause I being in love with their music when they were Creed.

Peace.

very true.... ILM was a good song, but it was kinda weird thinking "Myles is singing it so passionately, but it's for Mark & his memory of his mother"

MWAHAHAHAHA!!!

I'm back!

lol, ummm... yeah, not sure where that came from... strangely enough, I'm not even REALLY back since I am still gone and have only got a ten minute chance to get on the internet... oh well. I'm ALMOST back.

Either way... I hate to say this but I think... *looks around furtively*

I might like MF4 more than AB

WHOA. Did I just say that? I might have. I think MF4 had reached a level of originality that AB hasn't yet.

However, I am DEFINITELY hopeful that AB is going in that direction. If Myles gets more input (especially in lyrics... I was so dissapointed by AB lyrics), AB will just be... awesome-er. I know that isn't a word, but, oh well.

As for AB sounding Creedish... The songs that sound creedish are:

OYE
BW
ILM
DTML
SMS
TEIH

Only OYE and BW sound creedish THROUGHOUT but all of them have very creed moments. But apparently the next album will be heavier and hopefully we will be rid of all these Creedisms... I mean, before you all jump on me, I know there will always be a CERTAIN amount of Creedishness in AB. But If we could have more RIFFS instead of chord progressions... Then I will be in heaven.

But really, I am really happy right now with both AB and all the MF4 stuff I have been hearing... It all rocks. It's all good. Now if we can just put the best of both together, the world's greatest band will emerge...

ROCK ON!!! (yeah I'm hyper)

:laugh: That made me laughish out loudish. Sorry. :laugh:

No problemo Terry, you're always welcome! And I've been inspired by Marcos! :D

I think I feel the same way. The lyrics and sound that the MF4 has is much more original than AB. They kind of blend blues with rock, especially on the Fallout album. The lyrics are also more complex than AB's.

With that being said, Mark is incredible with writing music to fit the lyrics. If Myles writes the majority of the lyrics on the next album, and Mark does his thing with the music, AB will put out one hell of an album.

Exactly. If we could just get Myles to write his awesome lyrics and Mark to write his awesome riffs...

*drools*

Yeah, I agree, that would be pretty awesome.

me too
:rockout:
:pant:
:tremonti:

Myles rules...

hey keep that in the proper thread buster! ;)

oops...sorry, AC, I'll keep it on topic...the Mayfield Four rules!!!!

Same here. And I love White flag- it is awesome!!!!!


Yes. Perfect.

pS: Maybe Im late to saying that -that thread was dead, but only now I could download MF4 songs and Im absolutey loving this... ;)

Awesome, Ana!!

I still haven't heard Fallout. I actually DLed Second Skin and haven't officially bought that yet(mainly because I haven't found it at a decent price on Ebay). I can't find the whole Fallout album, just four of the tracks: Always, Don't Walk Away, Suckerpunch, and Forfeit. I plan on buying both CDs soon(I love Second Skin and love what I've heard of Fallout), even though I may end up paying more than I would like to pay for a CD. It's worth it because of the quality of musicianship on both CDs.

Titan, try half.com. That's where I found both Second Skin and Fallout, for pretty cheap, too. I don't think I paid more than $10 for either CD.

Te falei Ana...the guys had an amazing band! It's the prove that Myles can give some really good ideas on AB in the future.

Peace

Myles..he's fantastic on MF4- hope he can show his amazing abilities (sing/play guitar and LYRICS!) on AB next album. ;)

I think if he's able to do the majority of the lyrics for AB's next CD, then the lyrics will show a significant improvement from those on ODR. Mark's a decent lyricist, but I think Myles can write some really amazing lyrics for AB. I'm a huge fan of the work he did while with MF4. There are only a couple of songs that I do not like from a lyrical aspect on SS.

Ahhh just downloaded about 5 tracks off SS before user went offline. Am pleasantly suprised, didnt expect them to be this good. Really enjoying it. Loving White Flag, Sick and Wrong, Eden and Mars Hotel. Hopefully can get the rest sometime in future.

I mirror other peoples thoughts that Myles should have bigger part in the lyrics/music for the next album. AB lyrics are pretty average, a bigger improvement is definetely needed.

Cool, Muad'Dib! I think Sick and Wrong is a cool opener. I love listening to that one in the car, with the windows rolled down.

Have you already listen to Overflow? Its an absolute AMAZING song and the lyrics...wow!!!!!

but my favorite MF4 is still white flag -cause WF is... everything!!!!!! lol;)

Sick and wrong rocks... ;)

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

never liked them.

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

must be a waste of time to go here to put it...:rolleyes:

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

i didint make u read it.

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

actually I was kidding ...so dont be so negative...right?:rolleyes:

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

i am after all the most negative poster on creedfeed.

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

No, but that doesn't answer the fact that it was a waste of time to post it.

Re: Mayfield 4...suprised how i sounds good
 

Sorry to jump into this discussion a little late,but I've only just started to listen to some of mayfield four's music' and from what I have heard so far, I have to say that I am impressed.

Sadly, I've only come across a handful of there songs while looking on some fansites. -(Eden, always ,don't walk away' and sucker punch), are the only one's I've heard so far. There good, but I'm looking for more. (Any links?)

Also,is that really myles leading in sucker punch?....The download I've got is of poor quality, and doesn't really sound like him.
