Andrew WK
 
Anybody out there listen to him? I think his music kicks ass. His first CD was good and the 2nd one is even better. I just got it today and it fucking rules. long live party music

docbungle 09-11-2003 10:51 PM

I don't consider WK a good musician. He plays, imo, television commercial music. I've tried to like him, but just can't find any quality or originality.

JohnnyRock 09-12-2003 06:24 AM

good time rock and roll..nothing earth shaking or groundbreaking, but not everything needs to be.

DownwardSpiral 09-12-2003 03:31 PM

Hmm, not a big fan here.

DiffEng 09-12-2003 03:55 PM

It's good party music. It's fun, it's simple. I don't mind it at all.

QuasiMojo 09-12-2003 04:11 PM

What does WK stand for?

I've oft wondered this.

QuasiMojo 09-12-2003 04:12 PM

maybe...WORLDS KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG

h2ogo69 09-12-2003 07:04 PM

andrew wilks krieger or krier i think im not sure...

andrew wk is ok.... theres one big problem tho all his songs sound the same with the exception of "she is beautiful" but hes fun to listen to and even more fun to watch

Jeff 09-12-2003 08:27 PM

I like it, sure there's nothing really to the lyrics, but it sounds so good loud.

coke babies 09-12-2003 11:06 PM

He is awesome. I just saw him last night, it was the second time I've seen him. He is so much fun live, and absolutely amazing to his fans. He spends at least 6 hours after every show outside, just hanging out and signing stuff. The absolute nicest and down to earth 'rock star' I've ever come across or heard about.

Kaos 09-14-2003 04:24 PM

Not really a fan, but I can't say his music is total shit either...

SkanK0r 09-14-2003 07:43 PM

You know, I tried really hard to hate it. And then I got conned into one of his shows, and actually met the dude. I introduced myself, and he said, "Hey man! My name's Andrew, too! Lets go have some fun!" Nicest guy on the planet. He's insanely positive. And since then I've admitted that his songs are extremely fucking catchy and fun.

siryn 09-14-2003 07:51 PM

Andrew W.K.'s music is mediocre. But Andrew W.K. as a person...awesome. Have you ever read anything he's written? He is so amazingly in love with his fans. I was amazed by some of the great lengths he does to make fans happy. I've seen him in concert, too....it roxxored.

costello 09-15-2003 11:27 AM

i went to a show to see the casualties and them and the used (back when nobody knew em) opened for andrew wk. we were gonna leave once the casualties left, because i have no interest in commercial party music, but he said something stupid and funny so we stuck around for a few songs, very entertaining if nothing else so he gets points for that :)

Thraeryn 09-15-2003 11:31 AM

He rocks.

He doesn't have a social message or a political agenda. He isn't an artist who feels that he and his music have to grow up.

He just rocks. Hard. Here's to you, Andrew. :D

SabrinaFair 09-15-2003 12:59 PM

I enjoy Andrew W.K. Although not artistically complex, his songs are just plain catchy and fun. It's not something I listen to all the time, but when I'm getting ready to go party, hella yeah I like Andrew W.K.

DiffEng 09-15-2003 01:24 PM

Part of the reason I'm into him is that he totally reminds me of 80s hair metal. Not so much for his sound, but for his attitude. He's just out there rocking out and having fun. No serious agendas or messages. I like that.

nostalgic1 09-15-2003 02:15 PM

i never ever listen to him...

...but if he's ever in town.. i'll pay mucho money to see him live... he puts on one of the best live shows you'll ever see... and i'm completely serious about this...

i found this out when a friend of mine dragged me to one of his shows... needless to say i was pretty impressed...

Renegade 09-16-2003 09:47 PM

Not to take a shot at WK but I really hope Donald Tardy leaves the band so Obituary can reform!!! Slowly we ROT!

anleja 09-17-2003 02:36 PM

I only know a couple of his songs, but there is a good interview of his on-line at the "Onion A.V. Club."

holtmate 09-18-2003 08:26 AM

I love the fact that his music is just plain and simple rock. Nothing deep at all. Great stuff to listen to when you're burned out by all of the depressing, heavy stuff out there.

I think I'll have to go see him live now, after reading all of the rave reviews.

Seanathan03 09-18-2003 12:37 PM

she is beautiful is a good song but his stuff kinda gets old, sounds the same after a while

HLP 05-03-2004 06:37 PM

Andrew WK is one of my favorites, since his songs are simple and returning to the roots of rock. This music is just the best and I get so into it.

And his live shows... FANTASTIC! I went for the first time on Halloween and I was amazed! He invites everyone on stage and gets so happy when he sees a fan. Im about to go see him again on May 12th! If you like rock, go see a live show! BEST. SHOW. EVER!

evilbeefchan 05-04-2004 07:24 PM

My favorite artist and idol of all time!!!!! Great songs, and great person too. Did anyone catch an MTV special with him? When I believe he went to a Northern Carolina University and spent a week or so dorming with the ladies? They gave him cornrolls, and he taught them that crazy dance he does. The school marching band even played "She Is Beautiful."

evilbeefchan 05-05-2004 10:38 PM

Looks like he's getting his own show on MTV2! <a href="http://www.mtv.com/onair/mtv2/ask_andrew/index.jhtml" target="_new">Your Friend, Andrew W.K.</a> I thought the name was lame at first, but it sorta fits him. Too bad I don't get MTV2 anymore. :(

josh_s08 05-08-2004 06:46 PM

He played a show in bowing green a year or so ago. I guess it ended at one or so, and, as said before, he stayed to chat with fans and such untill like 8 in the morning.

He was suspposed to play at a show i went to a few weeks ago, with Thrusday, Head Automatica, The Bronx but he didnt for some reason, i dont really know why. Piebold played instead and they sucked. A lot. His songs are catchy, i still dont know if i like them, but he if very talanted.

buclao 05-08-2004 07:00 PM

Not really a big fan, but I remember seeing him on the Spike TV video game awards and he rocked the crowd in a wheelchair.

nicculus 06-05-2004 11:54 PM

do all of his songs sound the same, or has he created his own sound? I'm going with the latter. It's not groundbreaking, but it's so much better than any rock on the radio these days. I generally prefer music of a higher caliber, but Andrew WK is a guilty pleasure. Simple, and fucking Powerful.

KWSN 06-06-2004 06:51 AM

he needs a shower desperately.

saut 06-06-2004 10:32 AM

I dig his music, good fun it is.


I also heard he personally called the first 250 people that preordered his new album just to say thanks. What a cool guy.

bbbbbb555 06-06-2004 01:26 PM

his music is fun, and he went crazy when i saw him live, so i like him
