    so this happened on letterman a couple of days ago.....



    These guys will be the next big thing in music, just watch. They have a new album coming out on the 25th of march, but its already been leaked on piratebay. Gonna give it a listen, but that live performance alone will warrant attention.

    It's a half-decent catchy song but WTF is wrong with the lead singer? Is he mentally unstable? He can't dance either.

    edit: or sing like 4D pointed out.

    So they play chords and this choad couldn't sing his way past Simon Cowell in the first round of Idol. Congrats, 2 music threads in and your looking like a first round contender for being bagged up.

    This is exactly what is wrong with modern music and the people who fuel it. Even if he seems "mentally unstable" he's displaying passion and committing to his art. In modern society the only explanation is "man this guy is retarded, what a faggot, etc.), stop over-analyzing, at least he's trying to be fucking original for a change. I love the fact that he simply doesn't give a fuck when he's on stage; it's refreshing and different, because god forbid a musician portray some belief in their music on stage.

    At least you didn't disagree with my assessment. But seriously, there is a thread for music: http://pokerfraudalert.com/forum/sho...post-them-here Put your crap in there, otherwise we encourage sonny to make glenn miller threads.

    I wouldn't go that far. As much garbage as i've seen get plenty of play, it wouldn't surprise me a bit if this kid can be fooled into thinking this simple shit counts as high art that a bunch of others will be dragged along with him. I feel that this is more propaganda than substance though. Like, i'd like to see all the shit krypt has read about these sock headed dweebs because it sounds like he bought some kind of great sales pitch instead of the actual content.

    You sound very paranoid. The album is on piratebay, go ahead and listen to it. I never claimed that I thought they were a great band etc etc. I asserted that they will probably be the next big alternative band in music and after listening to their album, I think its an argument.

    Not paranoid, it's what I do. So if you were sold a bag of goods, I want to know what you saw, read and how you came to find this 'band'. I mean in a million years I would never have seen these guys, but you somehow found them, even before the letterman gig and thought it noteworthy enough to post it here as its own thread. So you either have your ear to the wall or you work for a record label that places stuff like this in threads and call attention to it to promote a particular band. Which is it?

    The youtube video has over 100k hits in 4 days so its not as obscure as your suggesting. I stumbled across it reading the Guardian's culture section.

    People on my PHISH board were hyping this band up.

    IMO, slightly catchy beat, charismatic singer, but not too much substance. The deep bellowing voice is very odd for this song.

    Maybe they just suck live? This really feels like a push from PR though.

    They are touring with phantogram, so I doubt that they suck live. You probably listen to Tool and think their music is substantive.

    Seasons change, and I tried hard just to soften you
    The seasons change, but I've grown tired of tryin' to change for you
    Because I've been waiting on you
    I've been waiting on you
    Because I've been waiting on you
    I've been waiting on you

    [Chorus]
    As it breaks, the summer awaits
    But the winter washed whats left of the taste
    As it breaks, the summer awaits
    But the winter craved whats lost
    Crave whats all...Gone Away

    [Verse 2]
    People change, even though some people never do
    You know when people change
    They gain a piece but they lose one too
    Because I’ve been hanging on you
    I’ve been waiting on you
    Because I've been waiting on you
    I've been hanging on you



    I have no idea what any of this spew means, except that he is waiting for someone to change.

    More of a Muddy Waters / Miles Davis guy. Our friends used to make up alternate lyrics to that one hit wonder that Tool had back in the 90's. I was deeper into Nirvana and Guns and Roses when Tool was big.

    I do find it interesting that you continue to hate on me when I question your taste in music. All taste is different, but the issue here is that you JUST listened to The Cure for the first time. I moved on from them 20 years ago. That and I may not be just a casual 'fan'. Ask around.

    This band sucks, the singer sucks, their music sucks....so of course they will probably blow up huge because Murica.

    Can't blame krypt for not putting this in the music thread though I wouldn't mistake this shit for music either.
