Album sound like it was recored in one breath, with minimal practice and with a big angry smile. Like it a lot!

acousticrock87 07.24.2006 08:03 PM

I don't like that EP too much, but I love the LP. Great band.

HaydenAsche 07.24.2006 08:23 PM

I don't like either. Comparisons to YYYs are shit. This doesn't even begin to be as good as Fever To Tell.

Danny Himself 07.25.2006 03:21 PM

For a band with no-one over the age of 19, I'd say they're doing pretty well.

TheDom 07.25.2006 03:22 PM

Listening to them right now!

One of my favorite bands

So how's your two dogs dude?
Oh why don't you go home?
It wasn't here, it wasn't right here
They want some beer at their two zone
So how's your two dogs dude?
Oh why don't you go home?
Two zone going through my brain
It's in the freezer and I'm going insane

We wanna be friends with you
Everyone wants to have a good time
We can do this if we work together
We can have a very good time together

that's my favorite one

nomadicfollower 07.25.2006 03:27 PM

I don't own any albums, but when I saw them open for SY they rocked pretty hard. Especially 'I'm an independent mother fucker and I'm here to take your money!' (don't know the title of that song, it stuck out when they played it though)

Where you put "two dogs" and "two zone" it's actually "Dude Zone." The name of a venue, where the pictures for the cover art were taken according to the liner thing under the track list. Not that it matters.

Danny Himself 07.25.2006 03:34 PM

Except, they are not shit, like all of Kathleen Hanna's portfolio.

finding nobody 07.25.2006 03:37 PM

have fun, but be safe with it!


just kidding!! FUCK SHIT UP!!

Danny Himself 07.25.2006 03:40 PM

Aahaha, yeah. What a song..

Danny Himself 07.25.2006 06:12 PM

Jemina sings like she talks- overaccented and sexy. ;]

Congrats, dude- 111 posts.

acousticrock87 07.25.2006 06:35 PM

Her talking voice is not really anything like her singing voice.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=nuhCkVlX55M

But still sexy, I suppose.

Danny Himself 07.25.2006 06:45 PM

I'll see your youtube, and raise you Ecstatic Peace.

Overaccented and sexy. M'kay?

Hip Priest 07.25.2006 06:49 PM

I've heard the singles, and when they did the little tour feature on MTV2 they seemed pretty cool. They got a good review in the Telegraph too. I'd be perfectly happy to listen to more.

acousticrock87 07.25.2006 06:56 PM

I just found the Extra Extra EP thing. It's 6 minutes long. I just put it on while I was doing something, and as soon as I started to pay attention to it, it was over.

Everyneurotic 07.25.2006 07:10 PM

they are like the punkest band of the year. fucking awesome!

Pookie 07.25.2006 07:28 PM

Like a rubbish Bikini Kill.

touch me i'm sick 07.25.2006 07:37 PM

i heard about them about a eyar ago and i've seen em twice since. they're pretty good.

they're music makes me want to dance, and watching jemina onstage is exhausting.

i agree that the comparison people have to yeah yeah yeahs is really off. bleghsioudfhenlsk

Silent Dan Speaks 07.26.2006 03:57 PM

I saw myself in that video.

Freaky.

There's now THREE Dans on this board. We now outnumber all the others, I would suppose.

Silent Dan Speaks 07.27.2006 12:53 PM

Yeah, there are entirely too many Dans in the world.

It drives me nuts.

Trasher02 07.27.2006 01:02 PM

Good band
I'm in love with Jemina
They'll be performing on a festival 17 august
I got backstage-passes and i'm gonna sneak into the buse of BYOP and like, totally make outt with Jemina and she will think iam 1337

truncated 07.27.2006 01:05 PM

Even for fluff punk, BYOB is fucking painful.

I've thrown my two cents in on this before, but, while I take no issue with Jemina's voice, the lyrics are too dismally moronic to be redeemed. There is no end to the number of albums you can record when writing songs is as easy as making one of these bad boys:
 

BYOB's first album actually has more cause to be in there than that turd.

JESUS, Thurston, what's wrong with you?

drrrtyboots 07.27.2006 01:10 PM

I remember reading an interview with the drummer from awesome color (or was it someone from BYOP?) saying how they got signed to EP! without thurston even hearing them or seeing one of their shows. Oh Thurston..

nicfit 08.05.2006 03:48 PM

I'm still waiting for this to come in the mail.

I got the Damn Damn Leash thing and some Electric Shake promo. Both awesome.

acousticrock87 08.05.2006 04:35 PM

I have the Electric Shake 7", came free with the CD, but no record player. I really want Damn Damn Leash. What I've heard of Electric Shake is great.

TheDom 08.05.2006 04:37 PM

Get the CD version of Damn Damn Leash! It has a different take of Electric Shake that is 8908423902 x better than the one on the promo 7" thing..

I sadly made the mistake of buying the 7" of DDL, but there is always soulseek..:rolleyes:

EDIT: I just heard the song Adventure on some comercial for AMC. Pretty cool.

lunberg 08.05.2006 05:06 PM

Am I the only one to think they're just spoiled little brats who should stop making music and get back to college, or do I need some sleep ?

acousticrock87 08.05.2006 05:08 PM

I don't understand why everyone thinks they're spoiled/snobby/disillusioned or whatever. Is there some interview that I haven't seen, or do people just mean they don't like the music?

Ripchord 08.05.2006 09:05 PM

I saw them today at Lollapalooza. They were awesome.
At one point, when they were tuning i challenged my mother to a "Where's Thurston" contest.
I totally won.
