i'm sorry if I offended you. I just wasn't expecting U2.

I'm not offended, as I hope you aren't. I like Arcade Fire, but they're not the bees knees or 'nuthin'. Peace.

 

[broken arm]

gabber.

U2?!?!? Come on, that's a bit of a lazy comparison. U2 wish they sounded like Arcade Fire, which is probably why they came on stage to an AF song every night on their last tour.

Think he meant Marillion.

 

[krystal]

they do grow on you. But that said, not listened to the album in months.

What the fuck are you all going on about. Talk about crap!

 

[Anne OMalley]

They're no Thin Lizzy - that's for sure.

I hate Thin Lizzy (I know that will get me in trouble round these parts).

Somewhere in this town"

But where?!?!?

The jail, perhaps?

Aaaah. That explains it.

Tony and Willy! Fight back the alleys!

Then the fight suddenly ends as they see each other's Jellyfish teeshirts and do the "secret Jellyfish hand signal"

The only way to describe the arcade is "Meh" not good not bad but listenable, the kind of music that i wouldnt mind hearing in dunnes while shopping for peas

 

[moc]

in fairness... they're amazing.

Actually maybe you're right. Hadn't thought of it like tha.

 

[Anthony]

I had them down as 'the U2 it's okay to like' also.. Rebellion and The Power Out in particular.

Bah. Madness. They bear no resemblance whatsoever to U2, They're fantastic for a start. Is this not the age old case of Thumped people turn against band who become......Successfull! . Shock!.
Fair enough if their not your bag, but they're far from crap! very far.

No resemblance?.. the whole chiming, widescreen, emotive anthemic thing is extremely U2. The instrumentation may be more interesting but the formula is quite similar. I'm not saying this is a bad thing (I like most of Funeral).

 

[skinnerchinner]

some of its crap some of its good

i dont think they sound like u2

i wish i sounded more like bono tho'

As if i'd know that!

 

[Los Davos]
