Kings Of Leon
Jackie Blue:
While I wouldn't say Interpol is in any kind of upper echelon of bands I like, I do find it odd that you like The National but don't like at least the first Interpol album, since they're drawing from a similar source material.
What do you think of A Place to Bury Strangers? I finally got the album today and I am severely digging it, even though it pretty much blatantly rips off Jesus and Mary Chain, New Order, My Bloody Valentine, and many 80s goth-industrial bands.
ObOnTopic: This thread has led me to realise I don't actually hate Kings of Leon. I always thought I hated them, for some reason, but having checked them out I'm fairly sure I never even listened to them before. I had thought they were some kind of generic frat-jam-rock or something, when actually they remind me of a cross between Interpol and early Wilco. I'm not going to buy their albums, but they're actually not that bad.
PECOAE:
The A Place To Bury Strangers album is good, but the downtempo numbers just don't seem to fit.
bbqrocks:
Agreeing with Zerodrone here. Thought I hated them, but I checked out some of their stuff, and well, its not bad. The vocals annoy me slightly though, but I suppose they could be a lot worse.
thedavo:
i really, really don't like the guys voice.
it ruins the entire band for me, if it wasn't for that then i'd probably quite like them.
Johnny C:
APTBS is a good topic for this thread.
Interviewed Oliver from that band earlier this week. Smart gentleman, very articulate. He seems to have a good head on his shoulders. The article ought to be a good read.
