Keddie Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I kind of "rediscovered" Los Campesinos! recently. I've liked them for months, but just a couple of weeks ago I listened to them quite a bit and got kind of obsessed :heart: I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS AT ALL. The Naked And Famous are AWFUL. Being from New Zealand, I watched them grow to be this famous. It's insane. They used to be a cool little indie band but they actually sold out! They got signed to a major label and released the single Young Blood, which is exactly the same as most mainstream pop in New Zealand. And I must say, Young Blood is a truly awful song. It won the Silver Scroll songwriting award here last year, which is insane. Some of the best songs ever written in New Zealand (and the world, I must say) have won that award. And they choose a song with a boring song incredibly cheesy keyboard line? Fuck. AND NOW, people overseas are starting to like them? this is too much. They're a terrible band. GAH. I looked up Young Blood a couple of weeks ago based on a recommendation, and it sounds like a little kid version of MGMT/Passion Pit on helium. It's awful.

Violet Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 OK, so out of curiosity, I just looked up The Naked and Famous. I'm actually irritated at the fact that "Young Blood" and "Punching in a Dream" sound almost identical. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotrobsessed101 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 This is kind of sad it took me so long, but I just recently discovered Sigur Ros. They're amazing! XD I love Jonsi's new CD as well. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerosWelcome Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 The Plea from Ireland. Like U2 crossed with Echo & The Bunnymen / The Verve, read about them on the U2 forum earlier in the week. First tracks sound like stadium fillers, "Praise Be" is a free download too. Love what I've heard so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violet Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Those Dancing Days They're an all-girl band from Sweden. As far as comparisons go, the one thing I could think of is how they're like a female version of Mando Diao. [ame= ] [/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
