alright, has anyone heard of I AM GHOST? if not you should look in to them! they are soo unique! its a real awsome band! if you want to hear them then go to http://epitaph.com/artists/artist/188
and then click on their song! its real good! peace out!

Theres nothing unique about them.

Theres nothing unique about them.

Quoted for truth.

Sound very much like the Lost Prophets...

I agree with the fact that they are not original and I understand the strive to find something original, but I must ask why is it that we automatically dismiss a band if they sound like another one? If that were the case, if a band sounded like someone else that meant that I shouldn't like them, than I would not have come to like Skillet. I confess Skillet is very original now, however when they first started they sounded very much like any other grunge band out at that time. So, if I had passed judgment on them then I would not like them now. I don't know what the point of me posting this is just really a random observation with a few innuendoes...

Peace

Skillet isnt original at all. SOrry if that offends you all but the arent original at all. allot of bands like TerraSIn claim to be original but the arent the sound like every crapy artist out there. nothing is original everything comes off from something else but maby twisted a lil bit.

Most bands aren't original. Most music we have today came off of rock, and that came from blues, and so on and so forth.

drugs are bad!

^ that came out of nowhere.

drugs are bad!

that waz vary random

drugs are bad!

What else is new? the band still sucks. ;)

they remind me of hawthorne heights... im not really into that kind of music. but for their genre they are okay.

-Savannah-

"By seamlessly integrating the raw energy of post-hardcore with contemporary punk rock and elements of classical strings and piano, I Am Ghost have developed a unique style that crosses genres..."
That's from the website^.
"I Am Ghost have", shouldn't that be "has"? Because I Am Ghost is one group.

that waz vary random
well, its true, but i try and tell everybody that, and they never listen to me! its bogos, i swear! lol! o well, so what other christian bands has people heard of, im curios if everyone only knows mainstream christian music?

...why are you aiming to be offensive?

Haha, I mostly only listen to drug music, I find it better than non-drug music. I couldn't care less what the musicians do as long as their music is decent.

...why are you aiming to be offensive?

He's kind of right. Skillet isn't original, they came from metal/hard rock, which came from the secular acts of the 60's to 80's. So did 10 million other bands.

Well, I can't think of another band that has really that Skillet sound. I mean I have listened to skillet and thought I've heard touches of Linkin Park (collide) and NIN ( eating me away) and such. But I still think they are pretty unique. I mean, no one can be totally unique, because there are limited vocal ranges and insturmental chord progressions. You can't come up with an infinite list of chord progressions. So of course they will be used more than once. If every band was "original" like you guys say , there wouldn't be genres, there'd just be bands.

collide the whole cd sounds like it was by Linkin Park.

Not in my opinion. But it is just my opinion. You may think what you wish.

well, if you like those bands, then maybe you should check out falling up, they, sort of have a sound of skillet, and linkin park, but you have to listen to them!

Well, I only really listen to secular music. I love drug bands from the 70's, such genius.

Oh yeah. Their founding member, Syd Barret did so much acid he had to leave after the second album. Drugs made the music in that band.

No Woman No Cry is a pretty sweet song by him

They may not be original, but they sure as heck have fine-tuned the sound to me pleasure! ;)

Anyways, I was reffering to the Terrasin comment...that would be, I'm assuming, TERRASIN's band (well, music-making...thing, anyway) he/she was refferring to. General rule of thumb is not to say a fellow board member's band sounds like every other crappy band...I found that offensive, if no one else did.

I agree. That is a pretty blatant insult.

k,ill look intoit- when my comp. is fixed!

Yeah, I thought he was hitting too low, too.

well, i might have to agree that they're not all that original, but i like them, because it's very much so my type of music...AND they're signed by epitaph. i love any band under epitaph.

I don't think you need a reason for liking a band, lol. No band sounds exactly alike (generally), even if they are very similar. There's always those slight differences in mucianship, style, voice, instrumentation, and pretty much everything. Besides, music theorists have been saying nothing in the past 10 years has been original, just copied in a new way (though, I disagree).

Thats basically what I said. Although, of course I don't think any music is totally non-original

yep! and i agree!

We have a new Clonetrooper. Tracy, looks like your record of agreeing is gone.

Nothing bad, I assume. I can't say off hand anyone here who doesn't like Tracy, heh.

actually, that's not saying anything bad about Tracy. it's not even directed so much at Tracy as it is at oneway. the Clonetrooper Award from the 2005 Panhead Awards went to those we, collectively, thought posted too many times the words "i agree" or "yeah, me too" or other such copy-cat posts.

And remember, the guy who got the Clonetrooper award said, "I agree, Clonetroopers are cool!" :P

Exactly. There's nothing wrong with the Clonetrooper award, it just shows that you're the type of person who gets along with everyone in the crowd. It's necessary.

We can all see Greg snagging that award next year, huh? :D

Yeah, having opinions and stances on things is for dumb kids.

Yes, conform to anything. No conflict. There lies danger.

We are off topic.

Michael, you are mistaken. It is all in your head.

It's good to know that someone actually likes them, other than me and the thread creator, and possibly some others that I'm too lazy to name.

What's with this band? They are on tour with alot of big headliners. I never heard of them. This is strange.
