don't care this band much, but I'm interested to hear this, except for the Tegan and Sara one..... I don't understand how so many people like them.. can't get into the pretentious lezbo pop

the_other_scott (April 8, 2009)

what does them being lesbians have anything to do with their sound? they are pretty much just a fun pop band.

ChadReligion (April 8, 2009)

ok, not so much lezbo, but more on the pretentious part...

TheMike (April 8, 2009)

What's pretentious about it?

ChadReligion (April 8, 2009)

if you have to ask, forget about it

eazyd2 (April 8, 2009)

youre the biggest fuckin retard ive ever come across.

TheMike (April 8, 2009)

Because there's no real answer.

the_other_scott (April 8, 2009)

i wasn't trying to be all huffy and puffy about it, but a band like Le Tigre is primarily a lesbian band. i don't really see that with Tegan and Sarah.

ChadReligion (April 8, 2009)

I like Le Tigre too

nanny nanny boo boo

but I just can't get into the Tegan and Sara shit.... it's just too much

eazyd2 (April 8, 2009)

ChadReligion (April 8, 2009)

Glasgow Rangers Fool!!! We Are The People!!

eazyd2 (April 8, 2009)

ChadReligion (April 8, 2009)

Again Easy, you have waay too much time on your hands

the_other_scott (April 8, 2009)

minorkaty (katy) (April 8, 2009)

Seriously, I really want to hear this cover.

kevgren (April 8, 2009)

Lostprophets was my Band of the Moment.

ChadReligion (April 8, 2009)

I can't get over how huge they are in the UK and Europe. I've never heard them... how would you describe them.

Everytime I hear their name though, I always think of the hip-hop group by the same name

kevgren (April 8, 2009)

I don't know...it's been a long time since I've heard them. They kinda seemed like a pop punk Linkin Park to me, if I remember right. I've heard the same thing you said that they're really big in Europe. Then again, so were McFly and Robbie Williams, so there you go...

eazyd2 (April 8, 2009)

Robbie Williams rules

kevgren (April 8, 2009)

Take That > Robbie Williams solo

eazyd2 (April 8, 2009)

so fucking wrong

chickswithdicks (April 8, 2009)

TheMike (April 8, 2009)

I thought I had a song in my head, but it was actually a brain tumour. Thanks, Cancer Bats.
