@theguywiththeibanez yeah :)) and omg you have to hear The Joy Formidable, its a band that mark mentioned too. you have to hear their song "whirring" its soooo awsome :D
These guys are pure unadulterated Jesus and Mary Chain, from the look to the lyrics, to the plodding melodies, to groaning guitar riffs --- and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that whatsoever. Seeing them next week in NY -- should be awesome
As for them sounding like the jesus and mary chain, maybe something out of Automatic but just slightly. If you listen to their album its more like a spacemen 3 vibe. For the something like the jesus and mary chain circa Psychocandy you might like my band, music search Japanese-Lovers on myspace.
First listen for me. Quality. Like these.I did actually see the JAMC it was like listening to feedback and they fucked off stage after 25 mins. Shit live, brilliant on vinyl!!
i don't hear JAMC at all. if anything, later JAMC when I already stopped really following them. It's alright. Not bad. I'd definitely download it. lol. Funny how a band puts sunglasses on and have vintage guitars, and all of a sudden they're the JAMC. bs.
It's also funny how no one every wants to mention that the JAMC took there look from Dylan, and that the famous JAMC drumbeat was lifted from Phil Spector's Be My Baby.
I also figure that about 75% of people that go around name dropping JAMC have never owned an album by them.
you're right my friend. It's obvious why the wall of sound is so popular amongst shoegazers. That drum beat from the the Ronette's did it, you're right about that. About Bob Dylan, well he's a smooth mother fucker but the sunglasses look I wouldn't really know who to credit that to.
of course they don't sound like The Hives, not even with No Age or Waves, they have that electric beat that keeps the distortion and armony within the 'chaos' ;)
These guys are clearly like Jesus and Mary Chain. I like them though, don't get me wrong. But that's the band they're practically emulating. Miss JaMC though, so this fills a little void in a way.
True, I don't mind either. I kind of enjoy JAMC knock off bands ( A place to bury strangers, The Raveonettes, Skywave...). And just like miriamgah said I'm pretty confident they'll develop their own style. What really blows my mind is the fact they're former Some Girls members.

I suppose you can compare them to the JAMC post darklands of course. This band is not that good.

I don't think it's as good a The Plot, but as long as the musicians are making the music they want to, it doesn't matter what I think.
