Litmus Test: Superchic[k]
A_S00:
Contemporary Christian music tends to get a pretty bad rap among the music-geeks among the crowd I hang out with, and rightly so: A disproportionate amount of it is total crap. But one of my friends played some Superchic[k] for me the other day, and my reaction was...eh, not bad. Sounds like pop. Kinda fun. Way to mix some genres. Male/female harmonies are cool. Huh.
So, with this forum being my measurement for what the indie music scene of the world thinks of stuff, I put it to you: Is Superchic[k]:
-Unforgiveably terrible?
-Better than most Christian rock but still bad?
-Just okay?
-A good band?
-Absolutely brilliant?
For reference: Bowling Ball
Dimmukane:
You should make a poll, and add an option that says "I want a bowling ball dropped on my head." That is what I pick. For a while, I could see this being in the soundtrack to some kind of lame chick flick/road movie hybrid (evil things. Crossroads, anyone?) right around the time the high school boyfriend of 4 years dumps the girl, and then by the 5th time or so that they repeated their chord progression (38 seconds, I think), I regretted wasting the bandwidth, clicking the link, and reading the thread.
Ballard:
They sound like a poppier, Christian Paramore. Which should honestly.. be taken at face value.
Also reminiscent of Hoku (the band that wrote what became the Legally Blonde theme for those not in the know)
CarrionMan:
I don't mind them, although I really don't like alternative holiday music.
