It's BS like that that makes me feel justified in downloading your tunes for free.

JackNd registered: 7/16/2004 00:00 posts: 48	My CD is 39 min... But then again I've added 4 tracks to it. The two tracks from the WIW single, and the two bonus tracks from the T-Hives-UK album... Would have been soooo easy for them to do this by themself, but oh well...

bacardibabe88 registered: 4/18/2004 00:00 posts: 985	... What a load of crap, I'd never download Hives music anyway... I'm a proper fan and anyway their albums are damn good anyway... don't really need to be longer, although it would be nice.

JackNd registered: 7/16/2004 00:00 posts: 49	So... I've bought the single and the album. And don't see the big deal in me making a CD with all the new tracks on it... It's just a shame that it wasn't like that from the start... :)

UntutoredYouth registered: 7/31/2004 00:00 posts: 42	yeh. I do agree but punk music is supposed to be short (or something).

UntutoredYouth is right

The Ramones, the original punkers, had that whole "short, simple, sweet" three-chord out mentality about their music.

KISS, although not technically a punk band, is an acronym for "Keep It Simple Stupid".

True punkers know to keep it short and sweet.

bartumus, let me ask you this: would you rather have a "short" CD by the Hives that rocks your world, or would you rather have a three hour, three-CD boxed set by an artist who has all the stage prescense of a warmed-over piece of coleslaw (such as Elton John or Yanni)?
