what do you guys think of these bands

[Stars]

karate
joan of arc
red stars theory
the prom
damien jurado
all girl summer fun band
idaho


I just did a shitload of downloading. I think Karate is fucking fantastic. And I'll probably like Joan of Arc because I like the Owls.

[Irrelevant]

karate: decent, but their latest album blew.

joan of arc: i think they're ok.

the prom: decent. not that great.

all girl summer fun band: i like them.

idaho: i like them.

Hideous, cloying, tuneless, pretentious shit with no redeeming qualities. These fuckheads should have all quit after Cap'n Jazz.

Kill the Kinsellas.

The owls are great. Plus, you sound like pitchfork.

[beef curtains]

red stars theory

haven't heard the rest

[James is Cool]

Joan of Arc, for the most part, is pretty terrible. Most of it is bullshit, but they do have a couple songs I enjoy.

I love everything I've heard by the Red Stars Theory. If you haven't downloaded "A Sailor's Warning," do it. Wow.

[killtheyouth]

karate - pretty good.
joan of arc - total shit
red stars theory - above average. some songs that are very pretty
the prom - mediocre
damien jurado - mediocre
all girl summer fun band - never heard
idaho - average.

Whatever Graveflower said.

[Halber Mensch]

i've only heard idaho, joan of arc, and karate, but i quite like all three bands. i'd have to say idaho is the best. if you like red house painters, low, or even nirvana you'll probably like idaho.

You sound like a broken record, dipshit. Come up with something besides "THANKS AMG/PITCHFORK."

"....it is fact that nine-tenths of the HUMAN RACE never have and never will think for themselves, about anything. Whether it's music or Reaganomics, say, almost everybody prefers to sit and wait till somebody who seems to have some kind of authority even if it's seldom too clear just where they got it to come along and inform them one and all what their position on the matter should be. Then they all agree that this is a gospel, and gang up to go persecute whatever minority might happen to disagree. This is the history of the human race, certainly the history of music...."

i just want to say that joan of arc is not that terrible. they are just an acquired taste.
karate is amazing live. i like any geoff farina does.
i like damien jurado.

Karate are fucking sellouts. Same with Joan of Arc. Try a band like Reave the Just, they're sort of a bit the same, only without the groping for a record deal.

oh well then i'll stop liking them and like REAVE THE JUST just cuz you're an "indie music fan" thus you must be cooler than me.

[Nothing/everything]

Karate's pretty good, i'll be seeing them somewhere end of this month
