Fun Stuff > BAND
Re: The M/F thread - '08a reboot! Still with no requests!
michaelicious:
I can't seem to get into This Town Needs Guns. I think it is because the band just seems to be a front for Tim Collis to show off his guitar playing. They don't spend enough time just trying to actually write good songs. It's not quite as bad on the Cats and Cats and Cats split and their singles compilation thing, but on that Animals album it's pretty much unlistenable bullshit.
Cats and Cats and Cats are pretty decent, though.
Christophe:
Yeah, I downloaded Animals off of SirenSound and found incredibly plodding and pretentious and ultimately, a softened-up pussy version of Owls. (Sorry to anyone who enjoyed it). Even Maps and Atlases who I dislike were leagues better than them.
I guess I should checkout Cats and Cats?
imapiratearg:
Eh, I think they're alright. I agree, the stuff I've heard off of Animals was pretty boring. I just think the song "If I Stand Still, Maybe I'll Get Out Of Here" is really catchy.

I uploaded their album "Posthumous" to the thread a blue moon ago but it's not there anymore. When I get around to upping it I will post a link here.

I may end up uploading the "(Don't Forget To) Breathe" compilation.

and the Postmarked Stamps compilation!

Re the This Town Needs Guns conversation: VSnaresFreak's post on the previous page has some bands in the same vein, I recommend the Tera Melos albums...I don't have any Pele to offer but they would be an excellent band to add to the thread. :wink:

(Disclaimer: not my links, low quality, and overall the compilation isn't as good as I remember the single 7" were)
