Not sure how many of you listen to j. tillman's solo work (drummer/singer of this great band) but I did a cover of one of his songs, if anyone has nothing better to do, and that's really the only reason you should waste your time watching it, you might could give it a view and let me know what you think. Thanks a lot!
If you like band of horses/ midlake/ fleet foxes then you might like British band called FOSSIL COLLECTIVE. They have a great vid on youtube called ON & ON - check it out xx
I heard it when he said he doesnt in a Rolling Stone interview.
Not so blasphemous anymore is it. Whats more blasphemous is the fact you would make false predictions about someone without knowing any background knowledge on them.
Learn how to capitalize. Learn how to punctuate. Learn how to use ellipsis. I found it ironic that you told me to learn how to spell when you used your instead of you're.
well after hearing gd things about this band, i've listened to a few of their songs on youtube and can't say i'm impressed. don't really see the appeal, not for me i suppose...
I had that feeling as well in the beginning, so I didn't listen to them for a few weeks, maybe two months. And then the other day I saw their record on sale on my favorite record website so I decided to listen again, and now I am totally in love with their music. I asked for their CD for my birthday, which is tomorrow:D So, don't give up on them:D
The exact same thing happened to me. I was far from impressed with their album the first time I heard it...I sort of ignored it for a few months, then rediscovered it and it was like seeing the outside world for the first time after living in a basement for 20 years. Amazing.
The first time I heard "White Winter Hymnal", I had a feeling I had discovered something that could alter my thinking. I got the album and haven't stopped listening to it since. There is something powerful in their music - something that gets in your subconscious and speaks to you on a personal level.
You sound like Uncle Rico I bet you want to go back in time and take state so you could be sitting in a hot tub with your championship ring and your soulmate. Shut up asshole I'm sure your life is like a trashcan rolling down hill but it never stops ha ha. The moral of the story is don't be a dick because you never know what the person your picking on is going to become. I hope he writes a song about you called "The almost Varsity Idiot".
A simple question for all you FoxHeads -- just wondering why the lead dude doesn't stand up? Seems their sound might rock out a bit more if he freed up his thang. Just enjoying the music and wondering...
ClueSign - Yeah I agree with Jonmad17 on that one but he does SOMETIMES stand up during the live performances during the songs that he performs by himself. For instance, songs like Katie Cruel, Oliver James etc.
You should fully watch them live if you haven't!! Sooo amazing.
wow you are a close-minded piece of shit if youre gonna compare MMJ to Fleet Foxes; they are both great bands. i bet you've haven't seen either of them live. your opinion holds no weight in my mind
They're a class apart from most of the rubbish you get on the radio, and you can hear broader influences than most would dare to try: almost medieval madrigal in places, mixed with folk and country. This is a great tune, but something jars slightly on the third line - like the melody is trying too hard to do the unexpected and doesn't quite fit the chord sequence. But still the best new band I've heard for a long time.
When it becomes more mature this group will be the next My Morning Jacket in terms of its spreading popularity. But keep in mind they are still toddlers in a metaphorical sense. These guy are still pretty incredible though. Oh and if you want to see a young group who is as mature in its musicianship as Neil Young, check out First Aid Kit. Two sisters ages 17 and 15 from Sweden I think. They are incredible and they did a cover of Fleet Foxes' Tiger Mountain Peasant Song. It's here on youtube.
The Shins and My Morning Jacket are great, but these guys are in a different class. I mean, have you heard those vocals amd melodies??? Just spellbinding.
elbow have broke away from their standard mindie bollocks,and for that yeah applaud them, but you cant compare this marvellous band to one endorsed by the likes of jo whiley.
Every fleet foxes song ive heard trumps the last one.A seriously fucking excellent band.
elbow,merely one half way decent album hardly compensating for their mindie past.
