Jesus Chicken Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Be anyone here familiar with the enlgish band, The Music? I bought their self-titled album yesterday, and damn was I impressed. It's so damn funky...just plain cool. Oh well, I was thinking, does anyone here share the same passion I do for this band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 I was going to buy the CD weeks ago, as I've been hearing about them for months... But for some reason it was still an import here at the time, and I wasn't about to spend $30 on a CD. I guess they finally released it in the US though, and it's only $6.99 now. I haven't heard much of their stuff (mostly because if you search for The Music you get all this random stuff and nothing on the band), but what I heard was great. Looking forward to finally being able to get it heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Chicken Posted March 2, 2003 Author Share Posted March 2, 2003 Umm they're kinda funky, stuff. Nice alternative-funk-rock stuff. Hard to explain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Hmm... Let's see. I've listened to the full CD now (The S/T one that's out now... I've still not bought it heh), and let's just say it's worth getting. All of the songs are at least 5 minutes long, but somehow manage to say unique and interesting (I suppose the only comparison to that is Tool, since their songs seem to average this length - or more - too... Not that they sound anything like Tool). They are just a really good straight out rock band, and if you like stuff like Queens of the Stoneage or other bands going for that style, you'll most likely love this. The vocals are a bit different than one would expect, but they're still good. Even if they sucked, the music alone makes up for it... There are some great guitar bits on this CD. Musically, it's pretty damn original without using a bunch of weird electronic equipment. If you have $6.99 go grab it (I think Target and Best Buy are both doing this price).

Semjaza Posted March 3, 2003 Share Posted March 3, 2003 Well it [i]was[/i]. Best Buy wants $9.99 for it now... I forgot it was Sunday and the ad changed heh. Not sure about Target, as sometimes they keep the prices the same. Target, and to a lesser extent Best Buy, usually put out debut CDs (in this case, the US debut anyway lol) or a major release by a lesser known band out for that price. I've gotten Queens of the Stoneage's Songs for the Deaf and Rated R, both of System of a Down's CDs and quite a few others at Target for that price. If the band gets big enough they usually raise the price. Sometimes it's a one week only thing, sometimes it's not. Linkin Park's first CD was only $6.99 there at first, and the price went up when they got popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
