Jim lindberg from pennywise new band the black pacific

[jacknife737]

the link wont work for me but it strikes me as odd that he has found a new group considering the apparent reasons he left pennywise, missing being away from home etc. surely if this new group are to be successful they are going to have to tour and do the usual band things!

I don't think he's going to treat it like Pennywise: it seems like it may just be a sort of "part time" thing. I suspect it's more of a way for Jim to have a musical outlet than as a way to make a living.

I like this sound. Pretty tight.

Jim: "I'm quitting Pennywise because I want more time with my children. Actually, I just start a new band instead of spending more time with my children."

The song is great though.

It kind of makes you wonder what's the REAL reason he quit Pennywise, doesn't it? I mean, he sure as hell didn't wait very long to form a new band.

well all i can assume is like someone mentioned, it wont be a fullt time group in terms of touring and recording. the pennywise schedule did include a lot of travelling so maybe he didnt want something that was as intense. he was aparently making a film or documentary around his book!

that would be cool maybe when they play kroq epicenter 2010 in september

I sorta was thinking the same thing as well.

Maybe Raptor88 had another reason to post that link

Maybe that reason was bouncingcoles's coment on the new offspring song, which apparently sounds too similar to Times Like These, while ignoring this recycled riff. It's not that much similar otherwise. Well, actually verses are a lot like verses in As Long As We Can, and this time we are indeed talking about much greater similarity than new offspring song and Times Like These. Now that i've said what i wanted to say i'll leave this matter alone.


Anyway, despite this i like the song. Though, it sounds exactly like something Pennywise would do. But Lindberg's vocals have kind of grown on me, so i'll be deffinitely checking this band out in the future.

yes this is the same recycled riff we have heard a million times but the new offspring song all around sounds like times like these. like almost every part in the song. i dont really care honestly but i think people are just in denial cause its offspring and they are afraid to criticize their own favorite band.
