Amazing, is there any song that this band has sung that doesn't make you want to cry because its actual music with a soul? Personally I would never compare them to the Killers, although I also love the killers, but there are a few times when the pronunciation of the words are reminiscent of the killers.
@FallingLeaf20 There is one song actually; I don't wanna be on TV. It's the one and only TATE song I don't like :) Every other song by them is pure perfection.
Every video I have been through of these guys have been compared with some of the completely different bands haha; Radiohead, The Frattelis, The Killers and Blur! Just accept they cant be tied down to one sound and they vary enough aswell as keeping there fans happy! :)
I love all the people who complain that these guys are derivative.
"Jesus, these guys sound JUST LIKE The Killers... wait, no no, they're total Arcade Fire ripoffs... this is... this is the Strokes, I mean, seriously... the... the Decemberists... uh, Franz Ferdinand?"
The first band this band reminded me of was The Killers. I had even thought of The Killers in awhile. And it's a compliement if anything to be compared to The Killers.
i love this group. and i love the killers. but, they're not the same. not really. and if you were a fan of either, you would stop comparing them and just enjoy the good music :)
@ShizukaNaAme damn the same thing happened to mr. hudson... a totally different style of music... but he makes some good music too and they gave him a 4 out of 10
You can see a slight similarity between The Killers and the Airborne Toxic Event. But nah. This doesn't really sound like The Killers. Both bands are amazing though :)
@hisuperman Its kind of like a blend between franz ferdinand and the killers, Its totally unique though, cant really miss these guys when you hear them.
@Peliz777 you are an idiot the killers are one of the most pathetic washed up bands there is the airborne toxic event doesnt get nearly enough credit they are 50 times better than the killers
I love these guys...and I'm probably gonna get some shit for saying it reminds me of someone but it gives me a kind of Gaslight Anthem vibe...great band...look em up
I agree, they do not sound like the killers. the killers have a totally different unique sound them these people. and these are unique, but not Killers unique. ya know?
I agree with the whole they sound like who they are! The sound of this band is pretty damn unique, i dig the violin! Though does any1 disagree that it sounds as if though they were influenced by bright eyes or am i totally wrong?
Either way you look at it, it definitely says something about the music when you see that there aren't a dozen people cursing each other out as it is on many other YouTube pages. These guys are awesome and I've heard that they're down to earth and appreciative of fans which makes them 10 times better!
does it really matter what band they sound like? point is, some one's gonna think you're wrong all the time. can we just agree to say this band is great no matter what you think they sound like.
mean while we shouldn't compare books movies games broadcasts sites foods lifes people towels clothes houses cars banks economies states schools boats beaches... yeah lets not compare anything to anything else in its category so we won't know whats worthwhile and whats not. they sound like the killers or interpol in most songs.
its because they set their beats up just as the killers do, they start a simple beat and build on it and then normally finish the song with all beats together for a few seconds and then theyre disassembled again. I love the Killers too
ahh i thought the same thing on the killers part i posted a comment that said that then i scrolled down and found this comment, im glad to see someone else does also
