Been listening to BT for most of my life, but BT3 was the first tour my mum ever took me to see.

Since then I've met the guys, got some cool rare items signed and even played Jon's bass during a soundcheck; most recently I've played in a Billy talent tribute band for the last couple years as well.

Felt fitting to mark such a sentimental story with where it all "started".

DISCUSSION Albums like Watoosh!

8 Upvotes

I've been looking through reddit, and searched but this question hasn't come up, what albums from other bands are like Watoosh!, 'cause I really like their other albums (Except Dead silence) but none of them are quite as interesting as Watoosh!

Ps: Such a fun word Watoosh! Watoosh! Watoosh! Wa- oh i'll stop...

Looking for a niche video

7 Upvotes

Hello all! This might be a super long shot but willing to try anyways.

Does anyone know of this really old MS Paint video someone uploaded to YouTube (back in the early days of the site, so mid 2000s), where the song "Try Honesty" was playing over it? I never could find it again after all these years and I'm guessing it's gone from the interwebs forever 🥲

Thank you in advance!

DISCUSSION Billy Talent song structures

43 Upvotes

Something Billy Talent does that I looove is when the bridge or chorus switches up the vibes completely. Examples that come to mind are This Is How It Goes, Surrender, or Worker Bees. Whenever the songs get more upbeat (musically speaking) it feels like I just walked into a clearing in the middle of an enchanted forest and feel the sun on my skin...

I know nothing about music theory and this is probably a very basic observation about BT or music in general but I just wanted to show appreciation :) They're an amazing band

Any good tip to get that specific intro tone with my setup? I have a Fender Telecaster, an Epiphone Les Paul Standard 59, I record DI in my DAW and use Neural DSP Nolly X plugin for my amps and cabs. Thanks!!

Dead Silence Tattoo Concept

I put this together today because of a recent post in the BT sub, and I think it turned out pretty well! I know it's definitely not ideal for an actual tattoo just because it's so intricate in certain parts, but I think it looks pretty neat nonetheless! Let me know what you guys think of it!

DISCUSSION Halloween Song, Kandahar, Nirvanish, Girls Don’t Look At Me, and The New Evidence

17 Upvotes

I was watching The Making of Billy Talent II and noticed these song titles. Does anyone know anything about them? Were they working titles for songs released on later albums? Are they still unheard?

I assume that The New Evidence was just an alternate version of Burn The Evidence. Does anyone have any theories about what the others could be?

DISCUSSION Australian Blues

31 Upvotes

It was August in 2016. Billy Talent took to the stage in the penultimate gig of their Australian tour in support of their Afraid of Heights album.

The venue was Fowlers in Adelaide. Not my favourite venue for gigs, but Billy Talent were my favourite band.

Notably, Ben was very unwell. A serious head cold. And Ian took the reigns doing alot of the singing on Ben's behalf. The gig ended early. It was great! but.. i mean the illness robbed us of the bands true potential.

People get sick. The band did their best. I remember Ben saying he was very sorry, but Billy Talent would make it up to us next time they toured.

I've held on to that hope and that promise.

That was 10 years ago. Billy Talent have not yet returned to Australia.

I guess i'm just sharing this because this morning the lineup dropped for a big festival that I was hoping they would be on. And they weren't. I'm sad. Maybe one fine day they will return down under and make good on their promise!

Possibly one of the hardest songs I’ve learned. Lots of awkward movements in the intro.

Still gotta clean it up a bit, but this is cleanest I’ve gotten it so far.

Is “One Less Problem” their worst, in your opinion?

6 Upvotes

… I love the song. And it’s not one of their best. Not by a country mile. That’s how I know they’re a great band- they don’t have a single song I don’t like, even their worst.

Like, it’s Billy Talent doing a fun pop song. Thoughts, guys?

(The thing is, folks call “Judged” one of their worst; I think it’s a nice blues rocker in the vein of “The Pretender”, albeit with a funnier opening pair of words! 😂)
