:yabbse-thumbup:

saw them live with Adam Green (from the Moldy Peaches. funniest guy out there right now, go listen to "mozarella swastikas," very fucked up) and Ben Kweller (who is emo and I don't like emo. not my cup of tea, i left early when he came on). They put on the best performance of all three. They look like the Ramones with moustaches, and that's exactly the kind of music they perform. Kind of 70s punk mentality with a dash of southern rock. unfortunately, they only have 5 songs out now. but they're five great songs. give them a listen.

I love The Kings Of Leon.  And I actually met Adam Green when he opened for The Strokes last year, (awesome guy), his new record comes out this July.  I totally agree though, listen to The Kings Of Leon.

Yeah, what happened to that idea? Wasn't this board supposed to include the "Karma" rating system that Greg's board had at the very beginning?

no, that was stupit.

anyway ben kweller isn't emo.. he's sugary chick pop at worst, and decent pop rock at best.

bonanzataz

what was Karma? I remember it being on one of the boards, i think it was Sphinx's.

anyway, P, i'm sorry i labelled it emo. there just isn't a word for a genre that classifies the sugary chick pop, and people throw around the words punk and emo gratuitously. we need to think of a word, and quick.

karma was on the c&c boards initially, and then greg took it off. i reinstated it on the ptamb until it was destroyed

Sigur Rós

This is xixax-user Sigur Rós' favorit band.

I saw them last month and they rocking rocked!!!

mister mister

I'm seeing KOL in exactly one week, yayy!!

I think "Youth and Young Manhood" is a really cool album. Does anyone think it's full of sexual innuendos, or is it just my dirty mind? See "Holy Roller Novacane".

Aha Shake Heartbreak - my favorite album right now....it makes me so fucking happy.
WWPTAD?

Stefen

Youth and young manhood is the album I enjoy of them. We've been playing the new one over the loud speakers at work and I don't dig it. Happy alone and Holy Roller Novacaine are standout tracks from youth and young manhood, two of my favorite tracks but my absolute favorite is Trani, it just rules and reminds me of a mixture of late 60's psych rock and mid 70's southern rock, it's just a fantastic song. They're really good.
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

their lyrics suck, here's what i remember not liking from the last album:

TAPER JEAN GIRL

Aha shake taper jean girl with a motel face
Aha shake bury your eyes in a secret place
Aha shake black as night on a Sunday

Cunts watch their bodies, no room for make up
I think he's tasted, tasted the watcher

Heartbreak knockin' 'em down like the 7th grade
Heartbreak, cigarettes and songs, with a winter's chafe
Heartbreak keep like my daughter and a run away

Aha shake tapered jean girl kills me
context, context, context.
