They were a total bright eyes knock-off on the earlier stuff but on this album they actually grew up as artists and decided to steal Tom Petty's song formulas and even his vocal style in some of the songs.
This band definitely has many similarities to Bright Eyes both in style, and lyrics. But I don't think it's fair to call them a Bright Eyes knock off. It's very possible that they are just similar artists. Everyone doesn't need to automatically assume it's intentional.
Either way, I like them both.
An Angle to me is like a more energetically consistent version of one of my favorite bands, Bright Eyes.
AMEN! what a weak shitty bright eyes ripoff. its so obvious its painful. its like their not even trying to hide it. i cant even make it through a whole An Angle song without laughing at the complete unoriginality.
does this guy really think he is original? he even calls himself indie on his myspace! if you're on the same label as hellogoodbye and new found glory you are NOT close to indie. sorry to say this but, he should start sounding some what original or just not even make a dollar when he/she plays or records
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
im sorry but if your on a label with new found glory, hellogoodbye, and socratic.....your not "independent" and it's your opinion but, an angle isnt great, the world doesnt need another bright eyes rip off band. drive-thru wanted conor in the beginning but he went to saddle creek and they were pissed so they got a rip off band, true story right there from the recording engineer from ARC aka presto! (the old saddle creek studio)
drive-thru may be a lame and distribute mostly shitty music, but by definition they are an independent label thus allowing an anlge to deem themselves "indie" whether you like it or not. it may not fit your idea of "indie" but it is nonetheless. there are obvious parallels between an angle and brights eyes i'm not arguing that but it's still songwriting and it's still art and actually good music if you can see beyond your bias
thats not fair..hes not unoriginal beccause of the label hes on........hes unoriginal because he "thinks" he is and theres nothing original about music...especially "indie" music....theres nothing more cliche then thinking your special and new

Read this carefully
blow on your right shoulder, then on your left
look up and say your lovers name in your mind
then send this message to how ever much letters are in your lovers name (send on different videos or it wont work).

indie means being on an independent lablel. drive-thru is independent. stop talking out your ass and giving shit to great bands such as an angle.
