yo A Perfect Circle gets down, I heard track one on their newest album & I almost fainted, I LOVE TRIBAL GROOVES....and Brand New too, I like their new album a lot

fivezero Oct 9, 2003

i'll agree. both albums are BOSS. james iha from smashing pumpkins plays on the new APC album and i dig Brand New's kinda dark approach on their latest. good times.

yo the lead singer, at least on Brand New's single, has kinda a 80's british new wave thing goin on w/his vocals, reminded me of the cars or something..I like a lot..& there's a lota umph goin down in the guitar work...and, I mean, APC can do no wrong..well, except for that one song on Mar De Nomes..u know what I'm talking about....

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Thats a REALLY good way for Brand New to go. because allllll the singers in that pop/punk/emo genre sound the same. and, yup, he's got the brit thing going on and what a great place to go that is! dark pop punk with smiths/joydivision/talkingheads/cars type singing. a lot of good new york bands are using that style too, like Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Interpol. i'm really digging all that. Brand New gets props.

INTERPOL IS THE STUFF...good lord, I love them folks....it's all about the bass & drums w/them too, although the guitar's more audible simply because it's the highest octave, they're kinda just creating atmosphere most of the time, the major grooves&coolest riffs are going down w/the drummer & bassist

Interpol's a New York band, but 2 of the member in BRMC are Califorians, and the drummer's English.

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

yeah, they're an NYC band but they don't sound like it is the point..it's pretty obvious were their main influence comes from

theremin thereminOG 2002

No, I mean, fivezero was talking about NYC's bands, and included BRMC in that ilk. So, I was answering to it, in saying that, Interpol is a NYC band, but BRMC is not. But, to answer to you, yeh, Interpol does have the influence of which you speak of. So, does BRMC, while we're at it. ...e'en tho, two are from San Fran, and one is from England (both, a far cry from NYC. hahaha).
