hell yeah.
i soooo agree :)GABE NOODZ!
THA RYLAND III
poor vicky t and her girl choice of viva la cobra XD
and viva la cobra, again.
:]
Yeah, I'm definitely buying this.
THATS NOT THE REAL COVER.
i still like it.
i dont think anyone's ever seen anything like it (originality is a plus), and its VERY cobra in my opinion.
pretty sure this is the legit cover, hun..
i have too many of them
and for the record, i love the cover.
extremely cobra and original.
What did you guys expect? Rainbows and butterflies? From a band who sings 'You can ride to the top, but you can’t ride on my cock'????
Delusional!
cuz she got really pissy about Blink182's enema of the state cover and blink spent 10 years talking about fucking dogs, incest, and god knows what else, i think this would be a relief for her to see lol
oh that is frickin' awesome
reppin' cobrahs innit
1. It's a Cobra Starship album.
2. The album is called "Hot Mess"
I actually like it.
;)
First of all, it has the necklace from the Church of Hot Addiction, awesome.
Second of all, it catches your eye. More people look, the more people get curious about what the frick is going on.
And third, controversy sells. And by the looks of it, people are stirring....
its all coming from a bunch of tweens who are calling the album disgusting, "eww"? and leaving other forms of negative feedback.
how many times do people have to say "the album is called hot mess, hense why she is hot and looks a mess" etc over and over again. the reason, why is because none of you seem to get it.
i absolutely love the cover, bim is a close friend of mines and pulled this off great, respect too her.
but for all the kids whining about the target audience and how their parents wont let them buy it because of the cover? get a grip. how can you possibly try and diss an album cover when above all the lyrics in alot of cobra starship songs are pretty explicit.
you guys need to stop being so hypocritical and face it.
the band have done great with the album, so pay them that respect.
and last time i checked.theres also a ton of great images for inside the album sleeve too.
or do you all want to have some hater bash on them too?
if you were real fans. you would all shut up. and pay respect to the music.
but the sweatiness still makes me feel incredibly sick
:D
edit: the concept and stuff has grown on me. but everytime i see the sweat and the shinyness of her due to the sweat, i don't like it all over again.
may have to edit the shinyness before i put the picture on my ipod for PWITORWF or GGGB
btw, i loved the GGGB cover. :(
another edit: just looked at your older album covers. it ties in well with viva la cobra i feel but i think it's such a leap from while the city sleeps. please say that you haven't forgotten the sounds of that album.
good concept, just a bit :/
the sweat though. ewwwww :( :(
But it does fit the title....just could have been done better me thinks :)
you can dislike an album cover but love the artist. you can hate the picture but still be a fan.
for cryin out loud. i personally don't like it that much (although it has grown on me) but that doesn't mean i'm no longer a fan, luckily i don't live by my emotions in that manner.
there's tons of singers and bands that have a cover that i wouldn't pick out...but here's the thing...I'm not in that band, I'm not that artist. I'm the listener, and if they're doing what they like instead of being bossed around by someone else...than at least I get the small chance of seeing who they are as musicians, artists, etc. and just because it might not be something that I agree with...doesn't mean I can't just like the music. Or just them as people.
shoot. I love Cobra Starship.
tyvm :)
Good work on the cover
that is all.
they haven't asked for their parents to be strict, only because your family sees things differently and reacts differently to what these other kids' parents act like, doesn't mean you should complain about the kid themselves.
But I do like that she got that tattooed on her. Thats kick ass.
&I want her necklaceeee!
I love you gabe<3
guess this is going to sell more digitally than physically, but hey here's to hoping it's as good and enjoyable as the last 2 albums.
i came out my room the other day to the sound of my mum singing along with my ipod in, when i asked her what she was listening to she yelled loudly 'I dont know, but it goes OH IM READY FOR IT! ALOT!' hahaha
shes 63....
she asked me to put yous on her mp3 player for her too haha
i love my mum
and i dont really think that 12 and 13 year old's parents would really care at this point cause there isnt anything sexually explicit or just explicit in general on the album cover..
btw: How does paying for rhapsody and putting the music on a sansa player help yall with album sales?
for 2) thats an awesome idear and fuck the people who dont like it.
for 3) if parents dont want their kids listening to your music then they have issues bc kids could be doing worse. its not like you are telling ppl to go smoke crack. mkay.
id get cobra tattooed to me anywhere on my body if i had the money. hell, id get Gabe tattooed to me anywhere on my body if i had the money. i met you and you wrote your name on my fist and i was gonna get that tattooed in place....but then my car broke down. so im holding off :(
but i like it. youre a hot mess. what else is there to say? a much hotter mess than daisy of love.
that is until she's having one of her episodes, then she will most likely ransack and trash my cd racks until she finds this cover and then somehow use it against me....should be interesting at least! :)
maybe because she's called 'Angie'... but whatever
there are worse bands for kids to be listening to lyric wise
not kidding.
and i'm like *rolls eyes* cobra starship, like always
i think he just does it cas i'm touchy ever since he told me to shut up going on about meeting cobra and being tweeted and shit aha.
XD
my dad asked me what shit i was listening to when I played Hollaback Boy.
Then again when I asked her what she was singing she said "I dunno?"
Great Mum, Great!
I can't wait to see this in my itunes cover flow!
Her nails are bitchin'.
can't wait to hear the new album!!!!
That's a pretty sweet cover :)
how terrible is it that because the first section of the image to show up on my screen was the bottom, my first reaction was why the fack are there pubes on the front cover?!? O_O
also, boy i have bad timing when it comes to being in nyc/nj. whenever i'm there, you're not and vice versa. lame :( have fun at the show tonight!
X,D
But I'm so freaking ready to listen to this thing, it's not even funny.
Well, maybe it is, but who cares.
Where do I live? In a bloody small town in Colorado. Do I get to see and do cool things. I need to blow this town and go to NYC.
&& yess! yurr in NY! im gonnaa pass by afterr thee showw. hang out ? [:
IT IS AMAZINGGGGG!!!!
CANNOT WAIT :)
i am like 99.69% sure it was on another post of his..
damn her nails are fuckin sweet, not gonna lie.
kisses for you and for all
<3
(Seriously it is)
Anyways, I cant wait for the new album! I've heard that the album comes out some time in August, but wether that's true or not, I can't wait!
defiantly gonna preorder this hoe!
congrats on making the top 40 charts btw!!
btw, i loved that video by plastiscines. they're french, aren't they?
around a pac sun today and the cashier saw my shirt, and freaked
out and started talking to me and asking me all about cobra starship
and how long you've guys have been a band, because she first heard
you on the radio with the new song and then I got to tell her all about
Cobra, I felt like such the good fan! It was fun explaining Cobra to someone
that has only heard the new song, and making fans out of them as well. :]
Gabe you guys rocked it out when you came to play the Fillmore in San Francisco back in october... me and my friends and an awesome time!!!
I'm mucho excited for the new album... and I'm bummed you guys aer going to the NYC show for Nylon's Summer Music Tour... and not the DC show tomorrow [I'll be at that one]
Have A Blast tonight!!!!
its 2 completely differetn types of music, but..
I CANT FREAKIN WAIT FOR THEM TO COME OUT! <333
even though i dont really like either cover that much, but oh well haha
and the song is called barcelona btw.
like hello, i'm in there like swimwear.
it's no secret that i'm a huge gossip girl fan.
i got to do a song with queen B!!!!!
i go coco!
and so talented!
and so gorgeous!
and an amazing actress!
and the best blair waldorf ever!
:o)
though, tbh, having "HOT MESS" on my
lip wouldn't be too bad...
can't wait to buy the album and listen to it for eight weeks straight.
;D
the cover deff makes sense tho *:]
excited for the cd, but i'm turning over the cover
I cannot wait until the album is out!!!!
Cobra music is always awesome!
same!
I have no idea what half the people are saying on here!
I'm just assuming :|
Still can't wait :]
It also looks kind of...messy. Cheap, I guess.
I'd prefer something more structured, esp. with the name.
It looks like a 10 year old put it together :/
/rant done.
I find it really akward im being texted and good girls go bad is my ringtone.
But yeah, I strongly dislike it. It sends bad vibes across. Deffintely gets rid of the people who buy it cause it has a cool cover. i'v seen quite a few of those kind of people/
so stoked for this album now, keep hyping it up =]
Uh, i thought the cover was going to be... different. Looks cool though
:D
CHECK OUT THESE KIDS THEY'RE LIKE 11 & 17 AND THEY MAKE SUCH SICK MUSIC!!! IT'S KINDA LIKE YOU GUYS YOU'D LOVE THEM U SHOULD TOUR TOGETHER!
http://myspace.com/rockindogbus
THEY MAKE CRAZY DANCE RAP MUSIC AND SING ABOUT ROBOTS IT'S SO AWESOME!!!! PLEASE !?
P.S. That dog bus band is hilarious hahaaa cobra starship + dog bus would be AMAZING lol
the robot song is pretty catchy
& gabe are u freaking serious!??? IF U DO STUFF WITH MILLIONAIRES U SHOULD DO STUFF WITH THAT DOG BUS BAND!!! robot ownsss
and yeah sorry but I 2nd that u should do stuff with Dog Bus!!! haha 4real
They should def. open for you guys I'd love it!!! They're myspace has hilarious and awesome songs on it!!!
and the album looks cool 2!!!
love the new cover,
but Plasticines =/ ...
seriously cannot wait for new music!
the girl looks familiar...did she come to slam dunk festival with you by any cahnce, im sure iv seen her before, just not too sure where :S haha
i love her nails though.
except it would say gabes sass,
once i get it i shall show you
:D
D:
didnt notice until you said that.
pretty much everything i've come to expect with cobra starship.
well definitely catch people's eye in the stores, though whether it's negatively or positively is debatable.
cheers for that!
STOKED XD
I like her nails, they are so colorfull
I love the artwork, its so colourful; I can't wait to hear this.
Well done on the top40 by the way/
xo
PS my mum saw this artwork, and now wants a tattoo on her lip. If you ask me, this is non-parent appropriate artwork, you are corrupting their minds and should be ashamed.
HORRIBLE
its makes me remember vicky-t (google translator again,sorry ): )
then again im 20 so my parents dont give a crap about what i listen to but even if i was like 15 they would be like..."uhh? ok." and walk away lol
no, seriously, thank you, i love pissing my mom off =] and what better way to do it then with good music? hahha
either way i'm getting it :)
GGGB video next monday !!!!
fangs up!!!
The only cobra-esque thing about the cover is the title and that's pushing it....I was hoping for something better.
Anywho, can't wait to hear the music, not sure if I would buy the album GRRR, I srsly hope you guys were pulling our fuckin' leg haha :[
All I could think when I saw it was, "Wow, this definitely is a hot mess..."
But hey, the tattoo is bitchin' and I don't doubt the music will be too.
my mom already saw the album cover & just thinks it's dumb... but she already knows about you guys, I blasted cobra on my 17th birthday bash thing. their faces were priceless at first... they've come to accept my taste in music now haha.
i think its very cobra.
Nice, well good luck with your career! I kind of wanted to be a graphic designer a little while ago, but then realized, "Hey, I suck at art!" So, I kind of dropped that.
Cobra is the shit. I couldn't honestly care if the next album cover was a clear jewel case as long as the CD contained had music on it.
:)
rad.
i see youre going for a theme of the showing half a face and a necklace thing? first viva and now this?
a square?
yeah i can be nerdy sometimes.
i don't understand what you are saying about Bim?
salacious goose???????
either way this post really doesnt make much sense to me. well actually i think i sort of get it but ive sat here for about 25 minutes rereading it trying to understand what shes trying to say.
I think this is what shes trying to say:
Do you know what it feels like to be a "normal" fan, a regular girl who goes to school and college and work, and buys your shit and see a girl like Bim or Jac or Audrey or Hannah Beth elevated and glorified for their behavior? No, I guess you wouldn't think about that, since you're just a big ol' SQ yourself, aren't you?
anyways this made me laugh:
Oh, and 99.9% of them have sidekicks.
it was a part of the definition for scene queen
i thought it was square too!'
ahahah! how corny! :)
don't pay attention to what others say.
i have fond memories of seeing midtown and river city high many years ago, you guys should come back to central florida this tour and I'll try and hit you up.
Second, her necklace is fuckin' rad.
And third. Her oil'd up body is very hot, and very messy. ;P
I was gonna say something clever about how stoked I am for August 11th, but all I could think of is I'm gonna pee my pants with excitement. Oh well. <3
=/
but srsly though. I don't like the cover either but I don't think the songs are going to be crap just because the cover is a little...off?
Have a little faith, guys.
Why this cover... Where did it come from?
Is it meant to be taken literally or is it a joke?
(please say joke...)
Um... And how does Victoria feel about it?
I will be upfront with you, Gabe, I do not like it at all. But I mean, I don't know if my vote counts haha...
I don't know... Just... Can you promise me the music makes up for it? I've been waiting for this for a loooooooooooong time...
And haha I guess that was more than one question... :)
that would probably be the best cover of all time.
THANKS FOR UPSETTING ME GABE BECAUSE THATS NOT WHAT IT IS NOW!
geesh.
:)
oh man, i want that cover.
my mom probably won't pre-order it for me though. i already just got an itunes card, a glamour kills shirt, and i pre-ordered all time low's album from GK. so my parents are broke now. :\
LOL:)
Personally, I think it fits the name of the album 'Hot Mess' and if people's parents don't like it then they can go over to the Itunes store and buy it. And if they don't like that then delete the cover art! Its not that hard. Jeeze, its just a cover.
Its creative people, get over it.
[:
Personally I like it and anyways its not always about the album cover its a bout the fucking great music that inside the case..So dont bum about the album cover because you guys should care more about the music because That Why We All Love Cobra Starship!!
Anyways he Album cover is creative and its cool!
I think Hot Mess wll Sell great and im probably gonna buy 10 copies anyways:)
Xox ...
Fangs Up!!!!
thats REAL?
hdjkxfha
thats too funny
its an..interesting cover
it totally grosses me out but its very..you
like when i saw this i wasnt really surprised
i was like oh ok that works
Now put up the real album cover please?
good point :D
But to be completely honest I'm not really digging this cover. I wish I could, but the graphic designer in me is screaming. I was really hoping this cover would have all the cobrahs on it. (Maybe put you guys on the back so I can flip it?)
It doesn't matter though. I will buy this CD and judging by the two songs you've already put out, I will love it and all will be well. ;) I'm so excited for it! <3
not as sexy as you gaaabe!
viva la cobra!!
i was thinking the same thing.
I don"t mind the cover! but Im going to get a earful from the rents!
When I first heard the name of the album, I gagged. Hot Mess? That's horribly unoriginal. I decided that the cover art would probably make up for it. Sadly, I was disappointed yet again.
Unoriginal name + ugly-ass cover art = blehz. The new songs are a little upsetting too.
Please make me proud. I know you can do better than you've been doing lately. This is worse than the Jonas Brothers' new song Poison Ivy... trust me, that's pretty bad.
MY GOD BUT SERIOUSLY. You're Cobra fucking Starship. And all you could come up with was Hot Mess? The ideas you guys came up with as jokes were ten times better, at least. Please... just make sure you're making the right decisions. I don't know what to expect from this band anymore.
you wrote viva la katie on the back of my friend's ipod :D she was all happy.
snippet of info :)
completely different musical map. non-comparable in my book.
lol i love CS but Viva La Cobra wasn't orginal either...People viva la EVERYTHING now a days
so if that's your argument...it's not strong
ALSO, could you come up with something better?
and CS doesn't rly have to make you proud, either. they just have to keep doin what they do best and you can get with it or get lost.
haters get no love
but yes i absolutely agree with the jb/cs comment.
But then again, it's a Cobra creation.. could any less be expected?
video is cool.
in my personal opinion, I like the cover, it's so CS, I want a necklace like that..and I love her fingernails! ^.^
by the way..I like the name of the new album ;D
long live to cobraa!!!
Personally I like it and anyways its not always about the album cover its a bout the fucking great music that inside the case..So dont bum about the album cover because you guys should care more about the music because That Why We All Love Cobra Starship!!
Anyways he Album cover is creative and its cool!
I think Hot Mess wll Sell great and im probably gonna buy 10 copies anyways:)
Xox ...
Fangs Up!!!!
*shudders*
when i see this, i totally think Cobra Starship. Plus, Hot Mess = totally this cover. by the way, her nails and necklace, totally rad.
and Cobra Starship isn't a band that moms would really like in the first place, so this cover wouldn't exactly make a difference.
can't wait for the album, Gabe (: it's gonna be amazing as always.
no juzguen a un libro por su portada, well its like 'don't judge a book by its cover'
maybe you don't like the cover, but the songs of the new album, will be awesome...if is CS so is great! :D
I like the song of the Plasticines, they have rhythm!
oh, and, sorry for the double post :S
agreed.
very cobra starship
haha
Im exited for this record, even if is NOT going to get here, Uruguay might be beautiful but we suck when it comes on music albums, specially of fbr/decaydance bands.
Ohh i saw that video the other day, soo good :)
If you guys were good fans you would try to accept it, yea its different. But think about it the album is called Hot Mess.
If you don't think its appropiate then just do everyone a favor and shut up. Its Cobra Starship were talking about, there not the most appropiate band out there. This is what they like so shut up and deal with it. [:
Just because people don't like the cover, doesn't mean they don't support Cobra.
they've said all along they do things for themselves & if people don't like it then they can get over it. I would be surprised if they did care (NOT saying they don't care about their fans... so don't even go there).
but anyways I HAVE supported them all the way & will continue to but still... I don't like the cover & have a right to voice that. :]
i think the cover pretty much sucks a dick, but it doesnt make me any less of a fan of their music than someone who likes it.
regardless, i wish people would STFU about how 'inappropriate' the cover is. when have the cobras EVER been appropriate?
But to oppose to waht your saying, yeah i'vbeen supporting them, but im going to strongly dislike this cover, because well I do. This is not something we're going to want to look at every time we grab the cd to see. It's overly hidious and well... as far as im concerned, i haven't really heard much positive about it.
And yea, maybe i shoulda put it in nicer words and said it differently and im sorry but everyone shouldn't really be this rude you know?
P.S. I'm not really expecting a reply but I'm gonna address the pink internet elephant in the room. Gabe, whose side are you on? Perez's side or Will-i-am's side? Was it an act of unwarranted violence or was it some weird form of karmic justification for what went down at the Black Eyed Peas' Album Release Party? Inquiring minds are dying to know. O simplemente todo este rollo de chismes te vale madre? Let us know. ;)
i used to listen to black eyed peas before cobra starship so more respect to will.i.am than perez cas he was always my favourite :$
haha
and perez left tweets being nasty about travie which kinda upset me :/
asides from the cover and title, the MUSIC on the album is lookign really good so far
it's the music that counts you guys still get my love for being the motherfucking coolest band ever!
Hopefully the album is better than the cover.
It's also racially coded. I'm a fan of color, and I think I can count on one hand the number of times I feel like this scene has acknowledged my existence, participation, and loyalty to the music and bands within your network. I do have to give you credit for representing and giving it up to Latino folks who show up, dance, and buy in. That's awesome and much appreciated, but it still bugs me that of those few times I've ever felt even marginally acknowledged and included in this scene, racially, it's part of an image not at all meant to be respected.
I get the joke. I saw one of Cobra's first shows. I've read your blogs, etc. I get it; I'm into it. It's why I stood in line for the basement in first place, but what makes Cobra work most (again, for me) is when you include yourselves in the joke, whereas this image, especially as an introduction to the new album/sound/chapter from Cobra, is something that feels exclusionary. The cover doesn't indicate to me that we're all ridiculous together so much as it's saying, hey, here's exactly who we're making fun of, and I can't lie, it kind of sucks to have people I respect make the same kind of joke that more mainstream media makes every day. I mean, ultimately, I also just think you guys have way more cleverness in you, so why settle for something old-hat and vaguely offensive?
I don't mean any disrespect, and I know the new songs are going to be as layered and fun as usual. I also don't mean to insinuate anything about Bim as a person. I've seen other pictures of her, and I think she's a beautiful girl, and I'm excited to hear her on the album. I just wanted to get it out there why this specific image-as-introduction to 'Hot Mess' rubs me the wrong way.
cobras is about letting go , having fun, and not getting so heavy (even though sometimes, it cant be avoided) - but seriously, for an album called Hot Mess? what do you expect ? our first album had a girl about to lick a very phallic looking cobra. i'm not saying it's wrong or right. but i'm just sayig taht there is definitely a precedent for offensiveness in cobras. also, as a latino and an immigrant, i think it sucks that minorities aren't more represented in this scene. and i'm very proud to see how many latinos and african americans and otehr minorities come out to our shows. i'm not saying that there aren't minorities at other shows, but i feel like cobra shows are definitely more of a melting pot. teh race thing has nothing to do with the cover. but if you were going to think about that, i think it's better to think of it as breaking down boundaries rather than creating them.
and Im latina, and i get weird looks from my other latina friends when i mention how much i love punk rock or poppunk, cuz they all listen to spanish rap, which is awesome, but i just dont like it as much as i like the other stuff.
my mom makes fun of me cause while shes listening to Juanes and RIcky Martin and salsa and such, im litening to Cobra Starship and Fall Out Boy and such. and reggaeton is cool, but i like my punk music XD
and while shes listning to ricky martin, like ur mom, ive got my headphones in listening to Blink 182, The Matches, Cobra, Green Day, and All Time Low lol
I think it is great to have a Latino successful in punk music and to see more minorities involved. I am going to a concert in July and none of my friends listen to the same music but my best friend agreed to go with me. I played her the music and she was like "great I am going to be the only black person there" I was laughing so hard but it seems like the crowds are getting a little more diverse at least I hope they are.
On another note I love the cover. I don't understand how it is offensive. But hey there is always someone, somewhere who is going to take offense to something.
and i agree, having a latino sicessful in punk music is awesome :)
i dont understand how the cover is offensive either, i mean, it is a little weird, but its no better than blink 182's enema of the state album cover lol. i dont undertsand why ppl are gettin uptight about it, this is cobra starship, whatd you expect? a fluffy litttle bunny? c'mon now, if anyone has ever met Gabe, or at least knows his personality, youd know thats not happening lol
Would totally love it more if If I had it on a huge LP cover.
xox
It's gorgeous, and i'm so excited for it to come out.
Anything that Cobra puts on a CD would be fantastic,
but i love this one.
Don't worry about it Gabriel, the album cover is hot. Along with the music that's on it and the people who sang the music on it.
Much love to my favorite band<3
that and inside mouth tats
defiantly not a fan of the album cover.
those nails freak me out!
but defiantly stoked to hear the new tracks.
and the album cover looks good. bim is a very shiny girl.
cobra necklace available to purchase @ myspace.com/iflookscouldkilljewels
It wasn't what I expected it to be ( to be honest, I didn't know what to expect )
But its not gonna stop me from buying it! :D
it's really kicking ass hope I could get it as soon as possible cuz I'll have to 'import' it, Brazil sucks, haha
hell ya I wanna her necklace sooo bad (:
love ya gabey baby <3
:D
Oooh the Plastiscines new record came out today, I liked it a lot.
Anyway I hope the new record sells, and I think it will, and I don't care what the album art is, I want to buy it now. lol. :D
<3
miranda
p.s. I like the nails...I want the zebra ones...jk, but they're cool. :D
and i love that song below it
funky also xo
ps, just got back from the plasticines show! A.Mazing.
And I'm glad that you had fun last night :) I just watched the video up there & it's different from most music that I like but I enjoyed it.
w/e
Cobra Starship had a reference to it on Family Guy! idk how old this is or if its new, but i just caught it like two seconds ago lol
the Griffin's were stating a family band and peter was listing off random names and he goes "Peter Griffin Starship?" i heard that and started laughing really hard, i dont evn know why,
haha, i know, im such a dork =P lol
i'm a dork too, dw. off goes the sad girl to find it on youtube (Y)
I don’t think that Kelsey would purposely hurt your feelings or anyone’s feelings. I know that she was just telling you how she truly felt.
We both love you and wish you the best! That’s why we gave you this awesome card: http://www.friendsorenemies.com/web/foe/videos/...
Good luck with whatever you do next…

Micheal Jackson just died today, from overdosing on drugs.
gabe, i know you drink a lot, and my friend and i were talking
theres been 3 celebrity deaths in the past two days or so, we were thinking about who it could be next, and it kept coming back to you
im afraid that im gunna wake up one day and see on myspace a blog post, or on twitter a tweet from Suarez, Pete Wentz or VickyT saying that you were a dumbass and got behind the wheel drunk, and you got in an accident. shit happens Gabe, i dont want it to happen to you
now i know ur probably smart enuf not to drive when ur drunk, but when u drink, you dont really think properly do you?
and im afraid ill hear that YOU overdosed on something.
or that you sumhow had the idea that percoset and Vodka Red Bull mixes well, it doesnt.
i dont want to see that happen to you
Please reply, im worried.
love from a big ass cobra fan,
Jerelyn
we're honestly worried, Gabe
and drinking isnt bad, driking excessively is, again im not saying stop doing it, or that ur a bad person for it, ur NOT!
its just, Cobra means a lot to Rose and I, it makes me REALLY proud to be a Latina who listends to poppunk and punkrock, and seeing a Latino successful in this scene really makes me proud and really happy! and you make Rose really proud to be jewish and a vegitarian, you and your music mean a lot to both of us, and we just want you to understand how devastated we would both be if sumthing happened to you, so just be careful, please? =}
again im not trying to get you to stop, i know you wont no matter what i say, im just asking you to be really careful
and i know the response im gunna get from you, and from fans
ill get bitchy ones from fans,
and from you itll most likely be "i appriciate ur concern, but really, im fine. im not an idiot, i know when to stop" or sumthing like that [[and again im not trying to disrespect you, im just saying what im expecting from what ive seen]]
but i know you hear this alot, which is why im sorry im saying it, but Rose and i just felt it needed to be said, again,
love from a big ass cobra fan
jerelyn =]
the saddest thing is that i'm sure being persecuted his whole life def took a toll on him... :(
thank you for being worried about me.
sometimes i worry about myself too.
when i'm home, i'm fairly responsible, but touring is pretty hard, and sometimes i rely on alcohol too much... but we all do what we gotta do sometimes..
just keep me in yr positive thoughts, and hopefully i'll be watched over...
if not, at least mattbro's got my back/ ;)
ok, i gotta go to sleep. i got a flight tomorrow morning for a well-deserved vacation.
xo everyone.
i knoww, im still in so much shock that he died. i mean, look past the allegations and look at it musically, that guy was the best thing to have ever come to pop music, and its so sad we dont have that anymore.
and i will keep u in my positive thoughts, and prayers =]]
and have fun on ur vacation =]
and another thing its like, im worried about my friend too cuz shes been turning into a mess, and she really looks up to you. i dont think shes copying you or anything, but i know that alot of the time she makes decisions based on what she sees her idols so, especialy you. like shes been expirimenting with alchohol a lot, and even tho we both know underage dinking is wrong, you make it look like fun, and i know it sounds corny, but kinda cool too, and i just really dont know what should do, and please know, im not blamin you, im blaming her for her bad choices, but i mean, we're both 14, and at 13, i had already had a past! and now im 14, and have stopped doing it cuz it was damaging my future, and i didnt want to do that, i just want to make her realize how she could be damaging her future like ive already damaged mine! i just dont know what to do, advice? please?
btw, the Hot Mess cover,
Nasty, Trashy, Offensive to my mother...I LOVE ITT!
im totally buying =D
If you make demands then people avoid you, if you say nothing they blame you later for not doing anything, and if you say that you worry but don't point out specific negative consequences that you foresee and then get your 'told you so' in when it goes down, then they think you're paranoid and ignore you. None of that is fun.
The best tactic I've ever found is to help them, and I know that sounds like the opposite of a good idea, but bear with me. Help your friends do the stupid shit that they want to do, safely. Make them talk over the problem areas and the things that could go wrong, and work out back-up plans with them so that they aren't caught unawares when something goes wrong (and it will). It trains them into coming to you for help, which is it's own problem, but better than letting them do stupid shit without anyone looking out for them. After a while, it becomes less fun to do most of the dumb shit since someone has their back but is making them be responsible about it. It just becomes normal and can even be boring if you play your cards right.
Good luck learning to be an alpha female. Best wishes for you and your friend!
xo to you too.
besides, alcohol is good shit. it makes you do things that you wouldn't do when you're sober, ;D
you seriously deserve a vacation. but come to UK again soon please, before we all bust a gut here!!
I love you.
XD
All Gabriels I know are actually epic it's kind of odd.
But..
This cover is sex on the beach.
Like omg it's an orgasm to the eyes...
x
I can see the Plastiscines goin on tour with you guys :D theyre pretty great.
xoxo
or are you going to buy the album just because of the cover?!
haha i dont think so..
my sister and i, oh and my TEN year old brother love the cover as well! :D
lots and lots of love from us in malaysia!
xo
CS, YOU should come in Paris, we miss you here
come here guys, and show us your news (and old) songs on stage :)
♥
It screams cobra starship.
+ the name, hot mess, is perfect.
yeah, it's messy, trashy + an explosion of patterns & colours.
i like <3
..still, i'm not saying i like the cover, its kinda.. blah. but i don't need to love everything the band does to love them.
just my thoughts.
This girl is so hot, and I'm loving the cobra jewellery range, although my friend bought one of the rings from merch and that shit is super sharp. It's puncture wound central. but I guess thats a good metaphor for the band, sexy with bite.
I'm hoping you got a photo of her back, for the back cover, with the track-listing tattooed down her shoulder.
that tattoo is sick
Peace out.
definetely brings up the idea of a hot mess!
not sure what everyone is on about when they say they dont like it...
cant wait!
my sister and i, oh and my TEN year old brother love the cover as well! :D
lots and lots of love from us in malaysia! pleaseeee come here soon!
xo
but then again, who is going to see this artwork anyway? Most of these kids - i hate to say it - will just download your album.
But seriously, it does look a little dodgy... girl looks like she's got a hairy chest.
I wish I could go see perform live! I've never been to a concert before, mainly because no one interesting - scratch that, REMOTELY interesting, ever comes to Bangladesh.
dude, she's a hot mess.
i think that might be what they are trying to convey
i like the nails. and the colors
and the band. and the band/music is really all that matters
SO WHATTUPP AUGUST11 COME FASTER?
I actually think this is sort of typical Cobra.
Typical in the way that, it's unpredictable. If that makes any sense at all.
And props to the girl. I'm all for tattoos but I couldn't imagine getting on on the inside of my lip.
Gabe, I like it.
I'm stoked for the album.
Just forgot to log in.
is hot mess available in hong kong?
i like the "Cobra Starship" ;D
i can't seem to find their other two albums here :(
I'm going to be honest with you, I don't like the album cover, but I'm not going to judge you or anyone else about it, I'm not going to lie, maybe I will like it eventually but now I'm still shock about it. I hope the song will be sooo much better than the cover album, the important is what about the song right? I'm already fallin in love with GGGB and PWITORWF, so I'm expecting Hot Mess is another really great album by cobra starship and can't wait for buying it (whatever the cover will be I'm still buying it). and a salute for bim for allowing her lips getting tattoed for your new album .
anyway congratulation for making the charts for the first time!!
And thanks to you I love the Plasticines now, thanks Gabe!
XOXO :D
my sister and i, oh and my TEN year old brother love the cover as well! :D
lots and lots of love from us in malaysia! pleaseeee come here soon!
xo
I'm surprised the album wasn't called "Gabe is a Hot Mess" with his titties on the cover.... j/k!?!?!?
Can't wait to hear the new album!
I mean, I don't even want that in my house, it looks that bad.
I know bands change, but, I was kinda hoping you'd change for the better, you know?
(also, Bim, is that short for anything?)
The cover of the Click Five cover was the five guys just standing there in all black and on the back was pretty much the same only the lighting was much darker.
But then i asked about the Cobra album, and she glanced at it and said yes.
I know that it was because the cover was bight and cheery, this one will probably be harder to get.
She has never listened to either of the bands and if i can help it she never will, cause if she did they would be in the trash before you could say Gabilliam (heehee i had to do it)
My point is that the cover can be the reason the a parent will say no about a cd, i'm going to try and get Hot Mess :D, but i'll be sure to hide it from my mother.
I would try to send it to you, but thats illegal and i don't wanna break any laws here in the US.
my friend told me about that you had posted it on here and i was like no way! and i couldn't look because i had to go do some shitty english exam.
then at the park she described it to me and i was like oh okay cool.
but now i've seen it with my own eyes, i'm really not sure.
i think it's a bit too much like viva. i don't like the 'sweatiness' of it all. (and people, don't start going to me duuuuude, she's a hot mess. i know okay, i get it.) i'm not sure, it kinda makes me feel uncomfortable as a girl and i'm really not sure why.. :| and it seems a teeny bit trashy to me.
i like the tattoo and the nails and the title though. don't get me wrong, i know the tunes will be sweet, i just hope you haven't strayed too far away from 'while the city sleeps'.
and dude, i got burnt laying in the sun listening to your tunes. my arm feels all hot. hot mess bro.
fangs up forever xo
'onceeee, twiiice, three times a lady!' btw my friend permanently has it on repeat so we listened to it today, i think she's listened to it literally 300 hundred times. i'll name and shame her: katielouise_x
all go abuse her.
no, i'm kidding. :D
on my itunes ive listened to it 105 times
and i have counted my ipod either
:D
i'm never that bad with a song.
i'm not YOU katie :D
Danni lives in a dream world. she wants to kidnap Cash Cash and the plan involves a baby keytar and a polly pocket deluxe house.
LMFAO
(Danni is 19, not 5 as she seems :D)
I would have commented on this pastelness when I saw the comment, but I forgot because I'm a twat. But yeah....pastel colours... :|
and yeah I get why there is all the grease and hair sticking to the boobs and whatnot, it's supposed to be a Hot Mess...duhh! But it doesn't mean that just because I get it, it won't irritate me for eternity (I'm one of those people that if there's something irritating me it will go round and round and round in my head until I fix it, but yeah...) I get the feeling that you maybe wanted to to be the sort of cover to maybe cause a bit of a stir and irritate a few people, or maybe you didn't and I'm just looking to deeply into this.
Either way, it's a good cover :) definitely will stick in my head for a while, for good and bad reasons.
Should be fun trying to describe the cover to my friend who agreed to buy the album for my birthday a few days later :)
see how she likes that shit.
;)
no i'm joking, i wouldn't want you to have a cover like hers. but it would be lols.
actually, i don't know how gabe would be, i'm not in his head. but that's how i would be ;)
shame the album cover's already been decided :(
Hey Gabe, any chance of taking this album cover suggestion into consideration?? Even just you guys shooting a poster of a parody of Tisdale's album cover would be brilliant!! :)
you need to copy a song again soon.
that would have been so funny though :D :D
i think i would have spammed her twitter until she saw it.
get ryland in a blonde wig.
(why do i keep making suggestion of putting ryland in a wig?! first i suggested he took kristen stewart's place in twilight cas she can't act and now this!!)
Gabe I think you should listen to this ;)
this is good stuff, right from your fans themselves ;)
i really can't stand them.
i spent forever laughing at his message on twitter to her. i was on twitter on my phone at school cas my friend was like you got a reply from gabe! so i looked at it in re and i was literally pissing myself looking at the message to ashley cas it was a few below.
i was like LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
i really really hope she saw that message!!
:(
oh, i loved cobra since while the city sleeps and i don't like one album cover so that makes me not a fan?
pshh.
but tbh, the cover does it's job. it attracts your attention. it'll grow on me by the time the album is out probably.
and yes, i agree that it does its job. and its pretty appropriate for the title, i just thought theyd have something a little different. thats all.
it's sad to admit, i practically worship cobra. this hasn't made me think any differently. it's not like we're saying cobra sucks or that the music doesn't matter.
people can suck my dick if they think that i'm more bothered about the cover than the music.
i think it hits me more cas it looks too much like viva, and i thought good girls go bad cover was really good.
the cd would then end up on my cd pile
it's grown on me, the sweatiness is what makes it look bad though.
a little less sweat and i would be fine.
what the fuck? thought you said it was about the music?
make up your mind why don't you.
i'll have on my grave you can ride to the top but you can't ride on my cock yeah!
me and my pal have already discussed my funeral XD she'll get the cobras to come sing, then play some cobra songs and midtown's like a movie, then play cobra cams on a loop on a big screen.
i wish.
but it won't work if she dies first. i'll kill her in the afterlife if she dies before me :D
We don't have to worship the ground our favourite band walks on to be considered a "real fan". A real fan is someone who genuinely considers the music the most important part of the band. But that doesn't mean we have to agree with the band on every matter! We're all entitled to our own opinions, weather they be good or bad. As long as we all enjoy the music they make, that's what makes us a fan or not.
I personally quite like the cover, even though there are a couple of things about it that nark me. An album cover is what represents a band to those who may not have heard of them, so is this is how they want to be perceived, that's their decision and I support them.
It may not be my favourite cover in the world but that's just how it goes!
That doesn't make us any less of a "real fan" V:(
as we all know from tl;dr, not everyone agrees with other people's opinions, everyone was complaining saying that no one understands that gabe is entitled to his opinions. well we're pretty entitled to our own views too thanks.
'agreed. it's pissing me off that people are saying we're not proper fans if we don't like it. but we're all entitled to our own fucking opinions.
oh, i loved cobra since while the city sleeps and i don't like one album cover so that makes me not a fan?
pshh.'
my previous comment on the matter.
HI!! :D
it just really narks me when people go on and on about not being a "real fan" just because we don't always agree with the artist. I'm (sometimes annoyingly) opinionated by nature! It's just the way I'm wired, I don't always agree with people, even those I look up to and respect beyond belief.
exactly, i've supported these guys for years. bought cds and merch, went to shows even though i couldn't actually see them play to meet them and give them more support etc.
just because i don't like this, doesn't mean i'm 'betraying' the band or whatever.
i don't agree with a lot of people tbh, and they've learnt to deal with that :D haha.
it's just really annoyed me how people have gone on about how gabe deserves to voice his own opinions, but when someone else tries to, they get shouted down. what's up with that bro?!
that's just how it goes though :)
TO THE DEATH!
:D
*high fives*
we'll start our troop presently.
for now, i have to go to bed.
but i'll watch family guy instead.
the troop shall begin tomorrow!
we need a name though!! I think it should have the word "Troop" in it somewhere....just a suggestion ;)
nightey night :)
actually that reminds me that I should probs go to sleep....I've been falling asleep in all my classes for the past couple of days...not good!
i was on here until 5 in the morning the other night. i was talking to everyoneeee ahah.
no that's not good! i've got exams all week so i don't want to be falling asleep in that! :D
dayum, can't think of a god damn name!
Seriously, I want to get a cat and call him Pigeon...you can't get much worse than that lol :P
hahahaa really?? nicee :)
That's what I like about these blogs! If your on the same wavelength as someone else commenting, you can end up having sweet-as convos :)
shit you're still doing exams?!? A2?? Fuck that sucks :(
I finished my AS ones literally 3 days (not including the weekend) after the Cobra show....such a PISSTAKE!! V:(
Stupid exams made me miss Cobra, WTK, Hey Monday ANDDDDD NEW FOUND GLORY :(
fail of my life!!
good luck with the rest of your exams though!!
haha same, i love commenting people on here. gabe's blog is my own form of a chatroom ;)
haha no, mock gcses which are nothing tbh but the teachers put extreme pressure on you just for stupid mocks. i actually think i got more pressure put on during sats than gcse, modules and shit.
forget AS. i feel like skipping AS and A2 XD but i'm going to be a good girl and stay on and shit.
oh that IS a pisstake :( i really want them back soon, i was so upset, it was stupid.
LOL tyvm. hope you done well in yours. we have to do well in our mocks incase we get swine flu- that's what the teachers told us.. XD
My mocks for both GCSE and AS were nothing like the real exam anyways....
oh god AS is like hell on Earth :( It's practically learning the same amount of stuff as you learnt at GCSE plus extra, in less than a year O_O
I've just started A2 biology...and I thought AS was hard, this is just bloody ridiculous :(
DON'T DO CHEMISRTY!!! IT'S THE WORST THING YOU COULD
EVER DO WITH YOUR LIFE
oh forget that. i think i would actually suck at it.
oh i know, i won't. my sister took chemistry, biology, maths and media and she only managed to pass media cas the others were so hard so she's had to redo the year.
apparently it's a huge leap isn't it, from gcse to as? that's why i'm dreading it haha
i think i want to do drama and theatre studies, photography, english language and media.
as you can see, i would like to go into film and stuff aha
The exams were just ridiculously hard this year :'(
that's a pretty sweet career path :)
I loved English and and that jazz, but because my sister ended up doing English at Uni, and I'm nowhere near as good as her, I didn't think I'd be good enough...
And my school's media section is practically non-existant
*Sigh*
I hate all this shit that comes with getting old :P
i'm not sure what i want to do. katielouise_x and i want to learn instruments, move to the US, find two/three male band members and get big aha.
DECAYDANCE!!
i've wanted to do acting practically all my life, but now, i think it will be so hard to get noticed so.. you know :S
I'll join the band!!
I'd throw everything away if the opportunity came along to make music for a living instead of all the conventional bullshit.
It's gonna be hard to get noticed in whatever career....if you want to do it, do it! At least you'll be in a job you love
that would be so cool haha. i would love to make music like cobra. fun, light, not taking shit seriously. and lolllll this typing box has got proper thin LOL. i can type on word on each line XD
have you seen the taitv where he's talking to someone, can't remember who, in a really common english accent?
i was sitting in bed at midnight, replaying it and laughing EVERY single time :D
yessss!!! But I can't remember which one it is :| DAMNIT!!
I think I watched that episode when I was in the common room at school and I actually think I fell off the table I was sitting on I was laughing so much...and because my friends being the nice person she is decided to take advantage of my unbalanced state and push me :)
Ryland is one of the very few Americans I'm aware of who can actually pull off a GOOD British accent :)
genious.....
oh my friend done that yesterday at the local park ¬¬ so i opened her bag, grabbed her ipod speakers and ran away. ^_^
exactly. you can hear his american-ness come through at times. but everyone else's ones pretty much suck. like my american accent. and all the shows we do at my drama group are american. ¬¬ we're doing grease and guess who i am.. eugene XD
it's a pretty funny part though. i love getting the laughs.
but ryland is LEGENDDDDD!
You just can not not love Ryland...he's just incredible :)
right gotta go, internet is about to die.
byeeee for now trooper!
okidokie, byeeee Trooper One!!
maybe now I'll actually be able to concentrate on my Biology homework :P
xx
just came back from my drama exam, and all it was really was doing coursework in a hall. my drama exam is in front of an examiner.
and it's really not that obvious that ryland done drama or something is it? XD
KOOPER TROOPER! :D xx
(i can't believe mj! and perez is being such a prick about it all. first will.i.am then travie, then mj, then pete. travie's trying to get everyone to stop following and i've stopped cas i'm fed up reading all the shit he writes. #UNFOLLOWPEREZHILTON status that ;) )
I had a biology test today, and the teachers a total bitch. If I get less than 70% she's gonna phone my rentz again and spin some more lies and make it look like I don't do any work. Bitch...
I do the work, I just don't do it the way she wants me to do it because her her teaching methods just do not work V:|
naaa not really that obvious :P
Before I knew about his drama background, I just thought he was some comedic genius!
Actually I still think that,.....
hahahaaa I never followed Perez in the first place. Eevn though sometimes his shit can be kind of funny, it used to be at least...now its just :| , I don't want to give him the satisfaction of yet another follower because I actually really dislike what he does. :)
fight the power of the science teachers! we were all slagging off our teacher right in front of her so she could hear, cas she taught us stuff for an hour which turns out it was all wrong. then she went into a rant about us aha
yeah, he IS a comedic genius!! oscar for ryland blackinton!!
i followed to catch up on stuff but it was all lies anyway. some of his stuff was funny. but he's beyond a joke now. i send him shit, see if he likes it.
pissed me off majorly that he was going to travie oh i'm always told katy you were a douchebag. if only she had listened etc.
as if his personal life is anything to do with that stupid piece of shit.
shit, she sounds even worse than ours! Ours just gives us the text book, speeds through the functions of the nephron in 10 mins and then expects us to make our own notes to understand it...I can't make notes till I understand the bloody thing, which means she needs to explain it!!
wtf?!? kinda bitchy....
Ryland is just pure love :)
I watched the TAI TV episode again today :D happy times!
gahh that sounds stupid to me.
yeah, i know..
i feel so bad when i watch reading and leeds festival one. it makes us look awful tbh. but that's up north, not south with us ;)
hahahaaa I thought the guys in the Reading and Leeds one were hilarious :)
perfect representation of the British:P
'wanker.'
aha. GUY RIPLEY, GUY RIPLEY, GUY RIPLEY. (8)
'emo hair is what they call it in america, emo hair... breastivals!'
it made me feel bad at first but then i thought well i guess 'Guy' really doesn't give a shit. it's all just fun to him ;)
it made me sad at the end though when the whole of tai just walked straight past him and he looked all upset. i was like noooo! guyyyy! i'll sign your shoes for you! (i was gonna ask ryland to sign my shoes for me as a joke ;) aha but then i realised i loved my shoes too much XD )
and yes, PERFECT representation of the British.
especially men with beer boxes on their heads.
lmao, when Beer Box Head came on, i was just like...bloody hell, typical.... :P
aha it made me laugh.
'chilli peppers..'
'oh hot red chilli peppers?'
'uhh... yeah.'
XD this has got mega thin again, where shall we talk this time? XD aha find one of my comments or whatever and reply to it and i'll find it when you reply ;)
I think we need to start a new thread....this one's getting too narrow for my liking
I clicked to follow you, if it's you follow me back so I know. I don't wanna tweet some randoms profile going YOOOOOOOOOOO IT'S ME FROM GABES BLOG to some person who will just be like W.T.F?? O_O
:P
jeeez, my internet is too slow for my liking.
yeah it's me. i see you dude!
i'll be following back ;)
S'QUANNIN IN YOUR ENDS G??
idk where to talk now! aha we need new thread!!
This one is gonna fill up really quickly!
any other left over convos between us on here which aren't at the point of 1-word-per-line yet??
i'll comment hi on one of your posts and we can continue from there ;D
let's continue!
we have made the comments so long just the two of us aha.
together, we shall take over Gabe's blog and destroy all ;)
>:D
I have NO idea where we were...I would look it up in our previous comments, but the convos are so scattered I'd just get lost :P
hahahahaa we really are taking over the blog comments!
I hope it's not annoying him.... :-s
yo Gabe, just comment this telling us to shut up and quit conversationing over your blog and we'll find somewhere else to chat.
Just gotta say the word man....
i know, i'm like ahhh, hope you don't mind gabe! i've done it on like every one of his posts. i feel guilty. guilty as chargedddd.
yeah Gabe, just tell us. it's just that your blog is a good way for connecting with people. i've manged to find people that i've met at your gigs, people that i just saw at the gigs and new friends from across the wordl! just tell us to stfu or what not and we'll go trash someone else's blog ;)
we'll attack pete's next. kidding. but just tell us, a'ight.
and yeah, come back to england. loochh, ilikeyellowlemons and katielouise_x are making sure that we can actually see you this time. and stop coming in may, examsssss!! i may get a t-shirt and write Loochh on the back in big letters so everyone would be like yo, there's that bitch that blew up Gabe's blog.
we're sorry <3
yeah this blog is SAH-WEEET for meeting people :D
but if you hate it, just tell us to go away
I agree with Looch Gabe, you need to get your bum bums back to the UK PRONTO!
and not in May!
"girls, piss off and go trash somewhere else." just say that ;)
oh and make sure it's when we have the week off. ;) then if you have more than one shows in London i can get to both. kthnxbai.
LOL we'd go mental in the crowd after all this wait aha. i will be anyway aha. been wanting to see cobra play for sooo long.
uhm 3 years ago. WTCSWRTS (lmfao cba to type out the whole album) was released in 2006 and i got into them in 2007 before viva. i think. oh iunno. it's been long XD
sweet sweet music like caaaandeeeee.
damn!! All I remember is that I heard the SOAP soundtrack and it just made me go loco (I've totally stolen that from Gabe :P)
I fail with remembering dates or years of things :)
GO LOCO!!
dayum, so do i. i seriously FAIL. epically.
no offence, but a hulluva a lot more people like Borat than they do like SOAP...so I've always been like "I'm NOT paying that much!!"
I think it's more the principle of it still being £14 after like 4 years while Borat's gone down to £3 in 3-ish that's making me refuse to buy it :P
Now I've practically just stolen my friends copy :) she never watches it anyways!
we all go Loco!!
while the city sleeps and viva la cobra are £15 each and i swear they didnt even cost that much when it first came out.
hmv sucks.
aha i do that :D
never watched borat, but i really want to see bruno!!!
LOCOOOO!!
:(
I can only afford to spend a tenner on a CD!
I feel really bad for my friends because I always ask for CD's and now they're gonna have to spend ridiculous amounts :(
£15 is he amount CD's used to be in THE EARLY FREAKING 90's!!!!
oh god Borat is BRILLIANT!!
Bruno is going to be even better!!!!! xD
I wanted to drag my friend to go see it in the cinema, because when we saw the trailer at another film she was like GOD I'M NOT GOING TO SEE THAT
but I can't make her come because it's a bloody 18
grrrrr
LOCO LOCO!!
aha ill have to watch it one day. ahhh how can you not want to go see bruno? it looks too good. i really want to go. grrrrr. it's so stupid. WHY is it an 18?
LOCOOOOO!!
I dunno either! Bruno looks brilliant!
you know what's wrong with ratings?? They're completely messed up!! The Duchess has bloody sex and FULL FRONTAL BOOBS and it's onle a 12!! Yet the first Charlies Angels film was a 15 :|
DUMB!!
LOCOLOCOLOCO!!
I think it's perfect for Cobra Starship, I'm not sure what has everyone's panties in a bunch.
My mom loves "Kiss My Sass".
Good job and I will definitely buy it in a store.
PS. I want some nails like those.
hint hint gabe.
And I don't understand the 2 Live Crew comparison. This isn't shocking or sexy. It's just unappealing. The BMTH album cover with the girl holding intestines was shocking, but beautifully done. You know?
Idk, this probably stopped making sense a long time ago.
i don't get most of you. THE COVER ART CAPTURES COBRA STARSHIP.
They are one hell of a hot mess of a band.
Why should they play it safe? yeah; they went overboard with this as they tend to do, AND I LOVE IT!
trashy;wet;messy;funky;colourful;hot
it was never intended to have ANYTHING to do with racial issues- i am VERY SURE.
+ as for the fact that this cover may turn away people; so what? no offence to anyone, but cobra starship is always gonna do what they do (: love em or hate em.
so everyone take your negative shit somewhere else PLEASE (:
you're overthinkin' this.
the cover is hella trashy messy + HOTTTT
it's perrfect. what did you guys want? an album titled HOT MESS with an average boring cover?
cobra went ahead + did something daring; & KUDOS TO THEM FOR THAT
also; ever heard the saying "don't judge a book byit's cover"
well apply that to CDs. if the music's hot; it's HOTT. regardless of a hot mess of a cover.
Love you gabe. love your cover.
go COBRA STARSHIP <3
many kudos
<3 <3 <3
And tbh, it doesn't matter to me what colour skin the girl on the cover is. I don't think it matters to anybody really.
Keep doing what you do Gabe cause the real fans know where its at =}
also I think EVERYONE here 'gets' the cover in coherence with the album title... so enough of that too.
sheesh you people are exhausting
hate my dedication to cobra being questioned.
but it's okay, people have stfu atm
damn, i was kinda waiting to have a bit of an argument with someone..
[i told my parents that i was at a wildlife park so i could go to a cobra venue to see if i could meet them. we didn't even have tickets for the gig!]
we lied to our parents and went behind their backs for cobra.
if you doubt our dedication to cobra, then you're blind.
Couldn't go to the show, but I got to meet Ryland and Suarez which helped make up for it! I just forced my friends who could go to call me during half the songs xD
were you there too?!?!?!?!?
SWEEEEEEEEET!!
I was sprawled on the floor outside the bus on some random high thing with some folder in front of me for the day attempting to do some revision and failing miserably lol
I saw Nate walk to and from the bus a few times but I was too scared to go over and say hi lol. Ryland was just a pure legend :)
Gabe didn't come out until like an hour after I had to leave so I wouldn't get my ass kicked when I got home :(
next time I'm gonna meet them all I've decided! And actually GO to the show.....
:D
we bought cds of mimi soya and i was showing mike my gabe necklace and told him that we didn't have tickets and that i wanted to show it to him and katielouise_x and i were going on about how it would make our day even if we saw him
and the other mimi soyas went to go soundcheck and mike called someone up for us to find out where gabe was and he was around the front. then katielouise_x went mental ;) haha and she ran and dragged me the whole way. i was like whoa!
but there were huge empty gaps next to gabe cas everyone was huddled around directly in front of him staring so we got in round the side ;) aha
you should have just called hi to nate! we didn't have a chance to speak to him properly, but we got a little wave and a cute smile and a signature. he's adoooorable XD
and agreed, rylanddddd :D love that guy, so funny.
awww same, we want them back soon. even if it's snowing and shit, i'll still be queuing there and hanging about for literally hoursssssss.
I had some glitter hat on and my friend had blue hair??
lmfao! it was a pretty high concrete thing (I wish we could figure out a name for it)
It was fun to jump off though :D
hahaa I want them back pronto as well!!
I'll join you in the snow!!!
I did the same thing for SP a while back and it was pissing down, middle of winter and we ended up just buying blankets from Poundland and those tin foil campy survival blanket things...was FREEZING but totally worth it :D
But I swear they said they aren't going to be coming back for a while now?? :'(
sad sad times
lol you probably heard me and my friends, we were shouting shotgun because i decided i was gonna shotgun all of cobra, cash cash and sing it loud ahaaa.
we'll be partying in a snowstorm all day longggg! whoooaaa, i'll be freezing my balls off (metaphorically speaking :D). make a little campfire on the pavement.
hope you're taking note gabe. the english will sit out in the snow for you, and our winters are fucking freeeeeeeezing.
at least me, you and katielouise_x are in the same boat :( what upset us was that just after we left KCLSU, the girls we had made friends with got free tickets from mimi soya and they said they would have given them to us.
then at ULU we mentioned that we didn't have tickets to mimi soya and they were insisting to go put us on the guestlist but we had to explain we weren't allowed. i reckon they wanted to cas katie and i looked like our hearts had been broken or something aha.
and sooo many people were selling tickets cheap too :(
I don't think I remember hearing you guys yelling shot gun though :(
I was too busy that day either going over the formation of a protein, or thinking "where the fuck are these boys and girl??" ....or having a panic attack :-s
awww that's so sweet of Mimi Soya!! :)
Next time, all of us SHALL get to go see them! The bloody bastards just keep on coming in May though!! They did the same thing last year, so I couldn't go see them then either :( crappy
oh, joy. we just got it into our heads that we weren't going to meet them, because if we didn't, we wouldn't be as crushed.
even though we went home feeling really shit after KCLSU cas we got our hopes up too high.
oh nice on. down with panic attacks!!
i know :) i want to see mike again to thank him for trying to get us in there and phoning someone to find gabe for us. i'd launch myself at him going gimme a hugggggg! XD
i doubt i'd be able to go if it was in may.. don't mind if it's this time next year or something. that actually really sucks! :(
and yes, WE WILL!
with our troop. our 'we are protecting our favourite band and our fanship at the same time' troop.
damn, we still need to think of a name..
hahaa yeah I did the same sort of thing, that way when Ryland came out I was just like YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! But I have this thing where I really REALLY want to hug Ryland just for some reason unbeknownst to me, but when we met him I completely forgot to ask for a hug :( I even forgot to get a pic with the man!! FAIL :P
Panic attack fail :( I had probs one of the worst ones I've ever had up on that concrete thing (THAT NEEDS A NAME AS WELL!!)
Mimi Soya are such sweethearts :) I didn't get to meet any of them that day though...sucks
If they come back in May again, I will actually die of heartbreak. Every time they've come to the UK there's always been a stupid reason as to why I can't go :|
yes yes yes we still need a name for that Troop....if you can think of another word for Defend that begins with "O", I think I may have thought of a name :P
The Really Official O____ Pack (TROOP for short :P)
me and katie got a pic with him and he managed to put one arm round both of us XD
i kept meaning to ask when they'd be back. i forgot to ask ryland and i was like oh i'll ask suarez and i forgot then i went oh i'll ask gabe. then i forgot again! :@
oh nice. do you get them often?
haha yessss! what words can we spell concrete thing with? haha i'm kidding that would take longgggg.
i got to chat to mimi soya except hero. like yeah, reppin' britaaain.
we can kidnap them and only let them back out in june. sorted. :D
LOL i'll look. oppose? that came up as another word for defend.
LOL that's awesomeeee.
we laughed a lot.
then at ULU he took the piss out of how us english chant cobra XD
DUDE, THAT'S WHEN ME AND MY FRIEND MET HIM!!!!
My friend was the girl who had gotten Cobra Starship tattooed on her shoulder and then Ryland got a guy (I can't remember where he was from) to take a photo of him "licking" the tattoo :D
LEGEND
C'MON YOU MUST REMEMBER THAT IF WE MET HIM AT THE SAME TIME!!
I SO REMEMBER THAT! XD aha
"the way they chant cobra, it's like it has four fucking vowels. COOHBRAAH, COOHBRAAH!"
Oh man, legend.
SWEET SHIT!!
I was practically dying of joy when he was doing that.
Ryland is a bloody legend xD
i'll be taking these memories with me to my grave. as well as when someone said something about michael jackson to suarez, he was like well, he's white now! and him and danny were saying about how hot the tourbus was then he went "the bus was so hot, i wanted to throw myself out of the window while it was moving. but the bus wasn't moving..."
ryland chanting COOHBRAAH, and telling us that we were mistaking him for guy ripley.
and Gabe taking a picture of my necklace and going "it looks like i'm taking a picture of your booobies!!"
I think I'd left by the time Suarez said that :(
I literally managed to get a pic with him, say hi and then I had to leave...gayness
I look like such a WANG in the pic though!! V:(
LOL at Gabe!!
ahh man, I think we should combine this convo with our newly non-ridiculously-thin convo before this one gets ridiculously thin :)
it really pissed me off.
oh the picture my friend and i got with gabe, the lighting is terrible. you could see me, but gabe and katie were in darkness. so i've lit it up to show them too. and now i've barely got a face. dude, i'm pale as it is! lol alright will do ;)
I only find it again when you reply on it!
uhh not really, one ever 6-9 months?? It's normally just on one of those days when nothing is settled and solid in my mind, like I begin doubting and questioning everything and there is nothing stable for me to keep a hold of....it's kinda wierd :-s
dunno why I got one that day....
yes that sorts it!!
hmm I somehow don't think that quite works..The Really Official Oppose Pack??
fail :P
i get freaked out as it is when i get excited/upset/angry. my chest seizes up and i hold my breath, which makes it even worse. the whole two days at cobra and the week before i kept doing it. and then for days after it too haha.
keep them in their trailer with the merch and equipment. LOL i know. the really official opposing pack? haha i suck so much.
The Really Official Opposing Pack would be a really good name for a liberal political group though!! genious!
just not for us....hmmmmmmmm :|
oh hell yes. what about Teens Really Outraged Or Pissed haha
does your friend with the blue hair have the cobra starship tattoo on her shoulder in suarez's handwriting? if it was her, later that day, we were winding up a preacher cas he was preaching for money, so we were telling him that we were a part of the church of hot addiction and that gabe was our god :D
if that wasn't her, then wow, there were a lot of girls with blue hair :D
hahahahahhaahhahahaaaaa that is fucking LEGENDARY!!!!!
xD
then he was telling us to close our eyes and listen and tell him what he hear. i went "well, i can hear a road and some cars..." and she went "and if you listen closely, you can hear fangirls screaming for our god!"
it was so funny :)
btw i've never even asked you what your name is XD hai i'm lucy, and you?
and what's your mate called too?
she was trying to buy my sunglasses off of me. then i went uhh naaaahh, so she called me a douchebag aha
I'm Roma, and my friend is called Crimson :)
hahahaa she would :P
we should combine this convo as well me thinks!
i guess the others were better, but this one pretty much represents cobra starship hahaha
so if you dont like it, dont put the album cover on your ipod/itunes or whatever and get over it
i personally think its pretty cool : )
Secondly, I kinda like the cover. Possibly because of the negativity it's getting but also because it makes me laugh. I hope that was the intention.
Just one thing.... what is it that Bim's covered in? It's kinda grossing me out. It looks a lot like jizz thats been rubbed in, hence the slight queasy feeling I get when I look at it for too long.
It's just the sweat/oil/water/jizz/gel that shes covered in that makes me feel a bit ill.
I think that the cover pushes all the right and wrong buttons, just as I imagine that it was intentional.
gross, dude. i just looks TOO fake.
i've got better with it know, i bet the tunes will be amazing anyway.
I don't think it's that bad, it's funky. I love the idea for it. <3
Oh and I thought i'd join in, my Mum likes Kiss My Sass. She sings and everything.
Good taste, love ya!
After listening to PW and Good Girls, I have a feeling that I'm gonna love the new album.
Keep on truckin'
frances: eww
frances: haha
frances: @ cobra albumcover
frances: hahahaha
me: hahahahah idc
me: it's whateverrr
frances: hahahah
frances: oh gosh
frances: why couldn it be
frances: gabe
frances: doing that?
frances: hahaha
me: GABE NOODZ
hahahahahah i joke, i joke about the noodz. kinda. ;D
...yes, I have read all the comments... in my defense, I do have a life, it just so happens my parents have friends over that im supposed to be entertainting tonight & i am so skillfully avoiding them by reading these.
but anyways, just trying to get gabe to comment you back now huh? i swear you've left like 10 comments.
I actually kind of don't mind it now and I think Bim is freaking gorgeous and it's definitely very cool that she got the tattoo for the cover.
Regardless, the cover is fun more than anything and if it's Cobra, can't we count on the fact that both the album AND the music will be fun?
I believe so.
You go Gabe coco :)
TMI worthy? I think so.
as long as your songs would keep me wild & happy, everything's cool. hell yeah.
PS. have a concert here in the philippines pleaaaase? yiii. you guys pretty much have amazing fans here.
i'm curious ;)
i would so own gabe's arse at it.
i'm kidding, i can only play it on hard so far, and i'm so rusty cas i have played it in looooooooong.
and i've decided that cobra is now an adjective.
im watching you guys on alexa chung right now, i find it amazing how the editing people managed to censor you so quickly.
'band that doesn't suck?'
'cobra starship'
'wrong!'
you guys are amazing :]

[did you see what people are already writing about him... it only took a few hours befoe people wrote jokes and nasty things about him] :(
How could you say no to Ryland's baby face!?!
haha. No. Really. I love the cover. It's brilliant.
It's Cobra. My mom kinda laughed at it but I see
the real genius in it. xD Though I do like Vicky T's
idea of Ryland farting or whatever. haha. Gabe. You're
a genius. :D Well, all you Cobras are/

Good Girls Go Bad is a very sexy record.... loving it a lot!

THe Tatoo's cool :) . and his nails too, all my friends loved his nails =D . take care Gabey :)
xoxo
a) i do not think there's a problem with a coloured girl on the front. at all. i really can't see why there would be a race issue
b) that makes me feel awkward to be white tbh and i'm not too sure why. because i feel that i would be slated if i went 'oh i'm glad that there's a white girl on the front!'. do you kind of get what i mean?
c) i really couldn't give a shit what colour skin the girl on the cover has. it's a cover. there would be the same response for whatever colour her skin is tbh.
you never see a naturally extreeeemely pasty skinned white girl like me on the front of covers, possibly because people see it as unattractive or something (hence why people sunbathe in the summer to get a tan). only when used for a spooky eerie cover. i'm not complaining, i just don't get why people are overreacting about this.
I love the album cover!
It truly is a hot mess! :)
Bim Is hella pretty.
If it is any consolation i thought my ma would freak about the cover but i kept it cool and she didn't give a shit!
WOw so many mutherfuckers talking shit! ahahaha!
Have fun on your holiday!
Incase you've forgotten, it's just an album cover. Don't need to get your panties in a twist.
:)
