The first great Killers cover band? I don't know what to think of the Bravery. HPM? Thoughts? Sure, their songs are catchy and fun, but I'm growing weary of bands that sound like this. It's too much. Does it diminish a record if it sounds too much like other stuff that has come out recently?
Please tell me what to like and what to think, people, I need help. |

And did you enjoy the GBV Rita sent you?

Really? Your post telling people to listen to them made you come across as a fan.
I am not entirely sure about The Cribs yet. They have some good tunes but my god they can't sing.

Forget the Bravery. Listen to the Rakes. Finally, a band that sounds like Maximo Park!

i saw the show near the end of last month and it is dubbed as "co-headlining", for vancouver it was bravery then ash and i hate to say it but the bravery upstaged ash, i didn't really like the bravery's music but the delivery was a-one.
all that being said, i just think ash had a bad night. |

The Bravery have been nicknamed by some of the music press here as The Bribery due to the amount of cash being thrown about by the rather over zealous record company.
The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it. |

Bprend, i went to see ash at the metro in chicago last week, and ash actually played before the bravery! ash has been busting their humps for years and these fuck-offs come and piss on their legacy. well, i was actually happy because i got to leave after ash.

The video was the first thing I saw/heard of the band, and I liked it for what that's worth. I thought the whole domino thing was nicely executed.
Congratulations to you for not having heard the Killers though, you should maybe patent your protective bubble. I actually like the Killers, but I'll admit they are literally everywhere at all times, so you've impressed me.
I would imagine if they reduced their sound to electronically processed serialist minimalism, that would interest you more?

Ok. Heard 'em now.
Phooey.

Reduced their sound?
Hand it over to William Bennett or Otomo Yoshihide for total obliteration.

matt le blanc circa the ketchup ad?
i was thinking more of a desperate fonz wannabe
daisy makes a valid point three times there though, all these too cool for school bands can just nob off as far as i'm concerned, i'm interested in the songs not how big their fucking hair is

To be honest with you, this album is pretty boring on the whole. I am glad I didn't buy it now on my CD shopping spree today. Here is a picture of them for you Mike 2. Notice the guy in the middle of both pics is smoking. How cool.
By the way Speedy, you are Mike 2 'cos that is what Dean called you. |

I really want to dislike the Bravery, and in many ways, I do. I even heard Peter Hook slating them the other day, and its not really done to disagree with Hooky.
However, I very much like Honest Mistake, party on down people.

imagine adam ant in his prime but beefy jock boys who don't wash their boutique uber three-haircuts-in one quaffs and wear too tight trousers.
it's a horrible mess.
(but i don't rate the killers either, i've said i hear too much shed seven/underworld in them many times before)
