@syoaran931 I think the comparison is made off the vocals. Lead singer from the smashing pumpkins and bryan both have very sleek/slick vocals. Also, they both do a lot of rhythm and guitar and distiortion.
his style is so messy. listen to the rest of their stuff. it's not that it's off. it's the way he plays. it's so chaotic, but so well put together. perfect.
Song is great either way, but seems like a real journey when played on Acoustic. I guess it kind of emphasizes the detail that goes into the guitar part.
Notice to Silversun Pickups Fans: Silversun Pickups are a great and inventive band, but comparisons to Smashing Pumpkins will cause an argument 90% of the time.
anybody who argues that they don't sound like Smashing Pumpkins needs to listen to Daydream, or Snail from The Pumpkins album 'Gish'. This isn't meant to be an argument causing statement, I'm just saying that people might be thinking of newer Pumpkins when they're doing their own comparisons.
True, they do sound like Smashing Pumpkins. But Silversun Pickups are much better in my opinon. Sure, the early pumpkins albums are great. But everything after mellon collie sucked. And Silversun Pickups make great music consistantly. Plus Billy Corgan is a fucking weirdo
Nothing except Zeitgeist sucked. If you disagree, I have to say you're just buying into the whole "Pumpkins story". Adore had some of their greatest acoustic songs, and Machina was just a masterpiece really. It had one or 2 bland songs but all of them were inventive and full of emotion. Wound? Age of Innocence? Heavy Metal Machine? Everlasting Gaze? Glass and the Ghost Children? Yeah. And its still early for SSPU, for all we know they could have a similar arc to the Pumpkins.
i'm a fan of silversun pickups, live the aren't that well i think but when he goes solo he is so good, specially on well thought out of twinkle, he's awesome- i do prefer their album instead of live concerts,
i dont like them enough to call my self a fan of the band but i do like the band there really good but most of all i love brian's voice and he can really play guitar but to sing that good and do it is just amazing
God, why are there so many haters and so much hurtful commentary on the youtube of a pretty obscure artist that barely has 13000 views. Seriously go talk somewhere else, if you don't like it, why are you still here?
Learn music. I swear to god does no one listen to good music anymore? This man sounds like a whiny bitch and his lyrics are meaningless. This is such an empty song.
Give him credit for writing his own shit and playing an instrument tyhough, this alone puts him streets ahead of the geniuses who sample some old song and play the fucker at the wrong speed with a monotonous computer-generated kickdrum beat and screeching tuneless keyboard overdub. Jesus, playing an old song back at the wrong speed! That's fucking amazing. Wish I thought of that.
It's not because there's some deeper meaner that escapes me, it's because there's nothing to understand. Just because you give a song meaning does not mean it had it there in the first place.
He's an excellent guitar player, you can clearly see his level of skill by seeing his guitar play in this song. Light years ahead than most of the crap playing in the radio now, but whats even more amazing is that its catch and simple to get into. Fantastic band can't wait for their new album due in 09.
it used to be 50,000+ but the channel that used to show this deleted their account on YouTube and made this new channel. They're the same guys, just under a different name.
You really havn't got out much then... don't get me wrong it's a bad ass song.. But it doesn't come close to little richard, The Beatles, Jackson, ex.... If you like his voice, listen to some little richard once! It's like Hendrix but with vocals...
This band is criminally under-rated. It honestly gets me mad how ridiculous pop whores with no talent get so much media coverage and attention and SS pickups have only 476 views on something this good.
i belive that this is one of the most talented songwriters to come along since Jim Morrison of the doors.
