questionable music criticism
ALoveSupreme:
Peach Plum Pear was probably some type of Rhodes or something keyboard/organ-y (a harpsichord is the thing you hear whenever someone wants to create a classy baroque mood... I can't really explain it. It's a keyboard that plucks the strings rather than hammers them)
I don't have a favorite band. BUT, that Converge album is pretty incredible.
Dimmukane:
uneXpect.? If Mr. Bungle had taken a more metal approach to things, this is what it would have turned out as.? An amalgam of styles, ranging from Black Metal to carnival music.? A 9-string bassist who doesn't play it like a Chapman stick, the world's only Full-Time Death Metal Violinist, a female vocalist who can make the most heartless CEO's feel, time signature changes,? key changes, theme changes left and right.? not necessarily my favorite, but they're up there.
edit:? Fixed amalgam, and a good song to explain this would probably be "Megalomaniac Trees"
ALoveSupreme:
I think the word you're looking for is "amalgam"

My favorite band is the Lawrence Arms because they are...how you say..
Awesome.
I give you any song they've ever done as proof.
Frivial:
I look for poetry in music. I also look for beauty and a certain quiet sensation.
Thus, my favorite band is Iron & Wine (Sam Beam). An example song would be "Upward over the Mountain". His lyrics are, in fact, poetry (he wrote this song as a poem before making it into a song). I can't find that song for free anywhere, but "Naked as we came" and "Passing afternoon" are also good examples that are on his site: http://www.myspace.com/ironandwine
