Wow, another “supergroup” destined for obscurity.

Interesting.

Ironic. Just earlier today I was thinking, “There are way too many bands with forgettable, overly-simplistic names.” Not even kidding.

No problem

Silent Season is changing their name to Resume

If you had former members of well-respected bands that they were in “hanging around” and “itching to go”, Lukas Rossi “jumped in” at the opportunity. He had a project known as ‘Stars Down’ on the go but didn’t pan out in Rossi’s own liking according to his wikipedia page.

Obscure names? Cleavage, Rock Star Supernova, and Stars Down. Pretty much so, but I don’t mind the “supergroup” thing anyway. Just depends on the material “raring to go” that goes along with the name like ‘Interview’.

What happened to original band names? If you are in a decent band and start a ’super group’ you have to open the dictionary and point at a random word and that’s your new band name? On a side note, I am interested to see what will come of this, but super groups are normally doomed or don’t live up to the hype.

I don’t care if the band is named ShitHead as long as they drop the hammer.

i’ll wait until i hear music from them to pass judgement. Marcos is a decent guitarist though. should be interesting to see how he fits into a group thats not rap-rock

This could prove to be very good. Hopefully it lives up to my expectations.

Dark New Day Version 2.0. It’ll be interesting to hear what they sound like.

jman3000 what makes you call it “Dark New Day Version 2.0″?
i’m jst wondering beacuse frankly Dark New Day is the only supergroup i like

I’m sick of awful band names.

I still remember listening to Theory Of A Deadman for the first time (it was the spiderman OST), and it thought to myself: “Man, with a name like that, they don’t sound THAT hard”.

I remember listening to TOAD and thinking, man, this is crap.

Hardly a “supergroup” if its full of rejected band members. Does anyone think a group of 4 musicians who pissed off their former bands are going to get along any better w/ each other? Oh yeah, horrid band name too.

Dark New Day was a good super group, but Violent Plan has promise as does Society Red. Chickenfoot had too much potential and wasted it. ALSO, Marcos was in another band while Truby filled in for him in P.O.D., that was not rap rock, The Accident Experiment.

I remember listening to TOAD and thinking, man, does his voice sound like that all the time? For every song?

“Hard rock” is becoming a staple on mainstream radio these days. Lukas Rossi (hearing how his pipes sound raspy) is the next ‘poster’ boy to embody the metal/rock hybrid. Two of the three bandmemebers took part in the rap phase, in the metal/rock hybrid. It’ll be interesting that the band Chevelle that Joe Loeffler was formerly in had NO rap in their music as it was Tool/Helmet influenced. Based on the material that’s “raring to go” in this musical project, that will be the ONLY, only way to pass judgment

Why all the stupid speculation “this guy does rap, this guy does hip-hop, this guy sucks cock”, who cares? I want to hear some tunes, then let the talk begin.

Was wondering what happened to Joey. I don’t think it will be good only due to the Singer.

relic, are you insane. Rossi is the only one who will make this the band bigger than Elvis.

EvilAngel, I’m calling it that because all these band members are from different hard rock bands much like the Dark New Day members as opposed to just having a lead singer aka Scott Weiland join a band thats already there. But again, it’ll be interesting to see if they keep the hard rock roots intact. Speaking of which, will we ever see the new Dark New Day album? hmmmm

Not a fan of Rossi but I do love Loeffler and Buckner Curious to hear what this will sound like.

If your looking for a cookie cutter band look elsewhere. The singer of this band knows how to write lyrics.

I’m anxious to hear their music.

Buckner can kick some ass. I’ve also heard some good music from Lukas Rossi, P.O.D. and Papa Roach, but haven’t followed Chevelle. Curious to see how they all sound together.

I like all these guys from their other projects….Lukas can sing and the players are all good…I am dying to see what the music is like…..

Looking forward to hearing this new band – I think we may be pleasantly surprised – this could be something totally different from their “standard”.. I know Lukas is a hell of a songwriter and I’ve seen him perform a few times and it’s always a great show. I say keep an open mind and see what transforms – heard they are in the studio recording now.

I hope we do get the hear them live
sounds like a good time : )
