you might want to check out the new album by Stars, a band from Montreal. Similiar sound, but even a little better than PS in my opinion.
-
I second that Rhett (what am i saying?)
They are maybe the best "pop" band out of Canada, definitely the best band out of Montreal. Did they come out with something new?
-
www.brokensocialscene.com (http://www.brokensocialscene.com)
a link, i thought Stars turned into BSS but maybe they just share members. Anyway, heres a good link for them.
-
Let me be the first to say it....I'm glad you're back Rhett, honest. Hopefully Celeste will follow.
If everyone got on all the time on this board, it would become a "bored"!

You can listen to some songs here. Sounded more like bad new order rip offs to me.

Yes, especially radiohead.
I went to allmusic, who do they say stars are like?
The first song on the site I posted is very New order, but not in an Interpol way.
-
I went to allmusic, and it said this for Postal Service:
Roots and Influences: New Order Pet Shop Boys Human League
-
thanks rhett, i have been trying to find the cd for 2 months, and now it will be even harder, i guess i could just use the internet

There'll be hell to pay if the lads of New Order find out they've been roped in with the other two!

since when is allmusic.com the bible.
do you realize how ridiculous you people sound saying "allmusic said this, allmusic said that"
"mama said alligators are honry cause they got all those teeth and no toothbrush"

I found it in a thrift store in Brooklyn on Saturday for $2.95. Wasn't expecting that much from it, but have been pleasantly surprised.

lets see.......
New order will probably always be compared with pet shop boys after their two front men collaborated on electronic...... I bet both of them would be pissed about being compared to the human league, then is it just because they use the female voice more....
Sonic, I looked at allmusic to find the stars sight, with a terrible name like that googling is useless. From there I found the music link and I read the allmusic description whilst listening. If you listen to the links, do you think they sound like new order, or not?

I cant listen to the links, but i have thier first CD, and while you could draw influences, they are certainly not ripping them off. Either way, almost every pop-rock band on EARTH has a little New Order in it, dont they?

I dunno, that first track on that site was a bit too close to comfort. I dont agree that all pop rock has a bit of new order in it.
I only brought up new order as I think they sound much more like them than the postal service.
I dont know why you are raging on me. Just because you made an arse of yourself with the 80s band comment, which you then go on to say you believe yourself.
Did something bad happen to you?
-
I almost got angry at that one, until i remembered that you wrote this earlier:
"Are the chemical brothers not DJs?"
then i thought, "must be a moron" so i will let you have your little image loading fun, oh dull one.

have you seen the chemical brothers do a DJ set?
do they have a dong with the the words "superstar DJ, here we go" in it?

Markie, I am not raging on you. Sorry it came out this way. I have read your posts for too long for that now.
And while i agree that you CAN relate any "pop" band to an 80s British band, i think its unfair, cause sometimes it jsut too nit-picky to bring up. you dig?

I have SEEN them do a DJ set, but thats not what they are. I have seen Sonic Youth do an acoustic set too. so what? they arent "DJs"

What does that mean, exactly?
I just think they sound more like New Order than the postal service. It is mine own personal opinion. If you dont like that fine, but give your opinion. Dont just attack mine.

Markie, I mean, that i have read your posts for long enough that i think i know when you may be trying to jerk my (or someones) chain, and when you are stating a sincere thought/opinion, which you were in this case, and therefore, i was not raging on you and didnt mean for it to sound like that.
Was not attacking you opinion, sorry.

yes. i do. good call. and a damn good set.
-
Ok thanks.....
I am sorry to. I did start sincere, but have to admit I was verging on yanking you later.
all is fair then right?
Oh except that I got you good with the radiohead retort when you said I related all bands to 80s UK.

the smiths
But I'm going to meet the one I love
So please don't stand in my way
Because I'm going to meet the one I love
No, Mamma, let me go !
Young bones groan
And the rocks below say :
"Throw your white body down !"
But I'm going to meet the one I love
At last ! At last ! At last !
I'm going to meet the one I love
La-de-da, la-de-da
No, Mamma, let me go !
No ...
I thought that if you had
An acoustic guitar
Then it meant that you were
A Protest Singer
Oh, I can smile about it now
But at the time it was terrible
No, Mamma, let me go
No ...

I will stop when you go to spin personals (http://personals.spin.com/) and you date someone like you and realise how annoying the constant quotations from spin actually are.

that was the cover its just an effect of the lighting.

Stars have been around for several years now. Not bad but as far as bands from Montreal are concerned, I prefer The Stills.
Fuck you Sonic for mentioning Radiohead! ( ;) ) Just as I read your comment 3wk had to go and play them. The more I hear them the more boring they sound.
