Happy Face 29 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I'll still be at work. And I don't have MTV2. Nice to know there's an MTV channel that actually shows some music though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1310 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I prefer Art Brut 146004[/snapback] Not really a comparisson though is it? Like saying you prefer the Pixies to New Order! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like saying you prefer the Pixies to New Order! 146058[/snapback] You don't think they're similar? Which of them isn't a guitar/bass/drums group doing rock tinged 3 minute pop songs signed due to the popularity of the likes of Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party?

David Kelly 1310 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I would rank Maximo Park alongside the others that you mention but playing the same instruments is the only connection I can make between Art Brut and the rest of them. Try plaing Bang Bang Rock n Roll to a Franz Ferdinand fan (more particularly the fans that come with chart success) and I think you would find they thought very differently of the two. The lack of what most radio 1 listeners would class as singing is I think the easiest divider between them. Both canny bands like and I agree Art Brut are a better listen.

David Kelly 1310 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Can't see it myself. Art Brut are much more like a punk band for me and I can't see a FF crowd going for that with the more polished stuff that they're used to. Mind you my initial Pixies/New Order comparisson might have been a bit of a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
