benzo Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Have any of you heard of the band the datsuns. I was reading a paper and they are supposedly a band from New Zealand or something using that name. Interesting. I wonder if they are any good. Quote Link to comment
djlotus Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Everytime I look up Datsun on overstock.com (you never know) all sorts of The Datsuns stuff pops up. Aside from that, I know nothing about them. Quote Link to comment

littlejason Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I have footage of my son dancing around in his diapers to 'harmonic generator' come on, please don't try to tell me that that's not cool. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) they are very industrial pop sound...i have torrented a few of there things I'm sorry to disagree but industrial has been my main genre for years and there is nothing industrial about that band. It sullys the good name of industrial to say so lol. That band is just like every other pop rock band that comes out now, no heart, no originality, cookie cooker, mas production band. People can like that, its fine, catchy mindless tunes have their place. Never the less it is what it is. Edited July 13, 2009 by 72240z Quote Link to comment

HRH Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Sweet rocks! Datsuns rock! "The Datsuns" on the other hand, suck large mouse testicles. Give me Led Zeppelin or White Zombie anyday. (The first White Zombie album, arguably the best) I always wanted to remake Black Sunshine to be "...the wheels of his Datsun exploding on the highway like a slug from a .45; true death; 400 hp of maximum performance, piercing the night; this is BLACK SUNSHINE!!!" :D Quote Link to comment

67411sss Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Well,well, we are all experts on bands now! Being a New Zealander i have to point out that any band out of NZ is not some mass produced cookie cutter product. It is really hard to make it as a band over there. I personally think this constant state of consumerism is to blame for the drop in the musical quality of bands available now. Bring back grassroots bands like the datsuns ,the black seeds (another shitty NZ band, don't forget Split enz, they suck large mouse testicles:mellow: The only polished band to come out of NZ was crowded house and they didn't do very well at all.

fisch Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I am 37 and I dig um! Nothing totally unique by any means, but could have been much, much worse! The opening riff got repetitive to the point of annoyance after a while, but i'd rock the hell out of that driving my 521 down the road... uh... if it had anything but the stock Am radio.

CharlieBucket Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Flight of the Conchords is the best band from New Zealand! Quote Link to comment

Bias much? lol A person doesn't need to be an expert to hear a band then know they sound like every other band that comes out lately, hence unoriginal, cookie cutter. I honestly don't care if they are from NZ or the moon because it doesn't matter. Music is what it is regardless of where it is from. I personally blame the masses for the drop in quality. If people would stop swooning over garbage then producers would stop mas producing it, very simple. Edited July 13, 2009 by 72240z Quote Link to comment
Capital15 Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Not to fond of their music. I still like Datsun cars though!! Quote Link to comment
datsunfish Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 No :fu:When you grow up you'll understand. Just so you know,Doug aint no spring chicken. :lol: I think the Datsuns are ok. Not the best and VERY similar to alot of the rock bands from the 70s. Good groovin tunes. I almost went and saw them a few years back but couldnt make it and I heard the show was lame anyways. We all have different tastes in music and thats fine. Country music and rap make me want to puke but I like pretty much everything else though. I like grindcore and death metal. Say that sucks all you want and you are as correct as I am when i say country and rap suck. My 2 cents. Quote Link to comment

Yes we all have our own tastes that true but that doesn't mean there isn't good and bad music. I don't listen to rap but there IS good rap and bad rap regardless. For ex. Chuck Schuldiner was the greatest death metal composer ever to live, whether someone digs on death metal or not has no bearing on that :-). Quote Link to comment
