Nope, haven't heard of them, but I'll have to check them out if they can be compared to Radiohead... I'm starting to like Texas bands... some of rock's founding fathers hailed from the Lone Star state... Buddy Holly especially. For some reason, I just really dig the essence of Texas rock bands... even though they were insanely played out and mainstream (so were SP), Fastball had/has(?) a good vocal quality... Maybe it's in the water

Kid A is the shiznitt... especially Idioteque and How to Disappear Completely, Motion Picture Soundtrack, too. Paranoid dude, do you have the Iron Lung EP? That's an awesome EP, some of those should've made The Bends.

Holy sheeet! They sound a hell of a lot like early Radiohead! This is the most excited I've been about a new band on the first listen since I first heard ATD-I... they also have that same Texas essence to them... they're great, thanks for the link, spartATDI

yeah, they do sound a little radiohead-esque. especially the vocals. ..you know what band they remind me of...THE GOOD NORTH. pretty badd ass band.
also cooper temple clause (thanx David W.) is pretty enjoyable. has both soft and hard elements of CABEZA DE RADIO.

My pleasure dude. thanks a lot for checking them out. there are quite a few very good UK bands that haven't been over to the states yet like TCTC. Which tracks did you download? Devil Walks In the Sand, Way Out West and Been Training Dogs are 3 of my favourites. (and the riff from BTD sounds a bit like the riff from Catacombs I always think) Radiohead-wise I still can't really get into Kid A. Apart from Idioteque and How To Disappear Completely. I f.ucking love I Might Be Wrong though (the album not the song I mean), that version of Everything In Its Right Place is incredible. David W *off to check out iSOLA* |

Spongebob kicks ass! Did you know that Stephen Hillenburg, the creator, was in The Smashing Pumpkins' "Tonight Tonight" video? He was the one who sends the rocket off in the beginning... so in an offshoot way, Spongebob was in a Pumpkins video. Oh, and Zwan have signed to Reprise and just released a new single, "Honestly" on zwan.com... It sounds like Cherub Rock if the music was scored by Robert Smith... there's a lot more groove to it than the Pumpkins ever had, but Zwan will never be SP, and no one wants them to be, except for maybe Reprise Records
