    Awesome band - reminds me of some of the early 80's bands like Danse Society, Virgin Prunes, Cocteau Twins, Cure etc etc etc. Love the sound.

    My favorite band in years. I catch them every time they come thru NYC... I hear the Joy Division influence, the bass lines can be very Peter Hook sounding... But that sure as hell ain't a bad thing to me...

    @deroplatysmusic 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Stemming and inspiration is one thing, but my response was about people who claim groups "rip off" JD. I agree with your opinion by far, Joy Division greatly shifted music and are definitely one of the best. Peter Hook's book is awesome and loved it and learned alot. My point is I'm just tired of people using them consistently to bring good bands down that may not really be looking at JD when writing. The 80's had tons of fresh ideas, there are tons of styles and groups to inspire from.

    Anything music wise that hits Seattle will end up in B.C. - so about 2 years ago we go to the Victoria Ballroom to see Prince Innocence and these guys opened - a hard act to follow for sure, really caught everyone by surprise x (Prince who?) Kimmels? lol vous, les Americains fous - funny

    I don't hear it much..some groups yes but other than a dominant bassline and your typical 80's drum rhythm, I don't see much of a huge sound alike. Joy Division wasn't the first post-punk band, nor were they the best at it...but that doesn't mean everyone who's inspired by the 80's is ripping JD off. I'm so tired of seeing every post-punk band with Joy Division comments flooding the video responses...learn more about a genre instead of just big names.

    I kind of agree with you on this, this sounds nothing like Joy Division. Actually, it sounds a lot like the Cure. But, Joy Division did things that were unheard of at the time (more their producer) - they did greatly shift music. They aren't just a big name, ALBEIT I completely see where you are coming from.

    I learned about these guys from my friend who owns a record store. I played him my latest demos and he put some of these guys on. Somewhat similar. I like my band better, but these guys are cool even if his vocals are terribly boring. Lose the delay on the vocal, dude. Or maybe just use it occasionally so it doesn't become cliche.
