@christ0pher420 Lol yeah they don't sound anything alike, XiuXiu is more random unique different. EvansBlue is normal typical and the same as any other band like Breaking Benjamin or SixAm ect ect. Both good in their own rights.
You're not wrong, Jamie Stewart is very influenced by Gamelan - although it's far more prominent on the first two albums (Knife Play and A Promise). You should check 'em out.
Huh, too alternative for me. I like from grunge to death metal everything. But this is too alternative rock :S For me. Not bad, but indie rock is not my style :(
Grunge to Death Metal isn't really that diverse. I have a feeling that real screamo and more indie/diy sorts of offshoots from punk and metal aren't on that horizon, but I could be wrong.Whatever floats your boat though dude. In any event, I think that's cool that you were mature enough to just leave it at Xiu Xiu not being your cup of tea. A lot of small-minded fags will just be all like "fuck this garbage [insert completely different mainstream band] pwnz this! Later fags!!!".
This song is really catchy espicially with the stringed instrument combination..Whenever I listen to this song I always yell "THE GREY LIGHT OF PORTO STAYS WITH YOU" when Jamie sings that!
Every single one of their songs gets into my head and it just makes me have the weirdest thoughts.
If I close my eyes and listen to this I imagine being carried away by balloons into another world. :3
But, I'm just a tad insane.

Who would win on American Idol: Morrissey or Jaime?
holdenc96 1 year ago
@holdenc96 I doubt either of them would even make it Hollywood, but I think Morrissey would probably have a better shot.

@holdenc96 obviously Morrissey would win, just because it's kinda more pop
