Cool that they're still carrying on (and the song isn't bad), but I miss Matt already or at least it would have been cool if they had made up with Justin Mauriello, that would be amazing to have him back singing in the band.
Yeah I agree. This song is pretty solid regardless. Even though they had a few singer changes over the years, they have consistently been making solid new music for 25 years which is pretty impressive.
Agreed; I would assume Justin has some sort of life where he's settled and would have no interest on going on the road ever again because otherwise it's been about 20 years and I don't see how any crap from back in the day could keep you from patching things up and reuniting. I have enjoyed the odd single I've heard since he left but the band was never the same for me after MFZB.
Dig some of the stuff with Matt, but not to disrespect, Justin Mauriello just has that memorable Zebrahead voice to me. Playmate of the year to MFZB to their even earlier stuff, he has such a goofy, but good voice.
Such an interesting journey for this band over the years... who could have imagined from Playmate Of The Year and MFZB that they'd win over and become huge in a more underground punk scene capacity AND have a scene guitar virtuoso legend like Dan Palmer join and become an integral part of the band! I haven't been mad on the newer stuff since Matt left but more power to them and great to see them still thriving and getting big crowds at festivals.
Last I heard of Matty he was hawking NFTs, lol. Very weird career arc for him. Love Adrian, he's really settled in well and kills it live. Their lead-off singles never really do it for me and this is no exception but I expect there will be more to come.
Enjoy every era of this band and have really liked almost all the songs with Adrian to date. Happy this band are still going and having fun doing what they do. Really wish they’d get on a proper North American tour though. Been a bucket list band for me for an eternity now and never had a chance to see them live
I hope you get to see them, they are so fun live. I hear you on the touring, they are huge over seas and it seems like they only play one off shows in the US. Hopefully they do a full US tour. i saw them a couple times at smaller venues and for one song, they asked everyone in the crowd to come up on stage and dance during one of the songs, it was absolute madness, in a good way.
Jealous! That’s so much fun. They seem like such a fun live band. I’ve watched so many different live videos of them over the years, from the beginning of the Justin era, to Matty, all the way to the recent stuff with Adrian, and I always just keep telling myself “someday” lol The last time they played here (Toronto) was 2014, but unfortunately I was away and couldn’t make it. The most recent time before that was 2003, which physically pains me to type haha
Yeah MFZB was where it was at for me. I liked the album with Matty after but everything else since has been mostly miss for me. Still throw on MFZB every now and again. I honestly thought Justin was going to come back after Matty left.
Broadcast to the World is a really solid album from Matty. Can listen front to back without skipping any songs.
Looked him up just to see what he's been doing all these years, seems happy. Also guy is like 50 and looks 30 so that's also probably a plus ha.
