Post by: Barcelona on February 10, 2003, 01:02:00 am: I will be there because I think that it may be something different and original. However, I have not been that impressed by their last album. Should I expect the show to be way too quiet?

The music is not bad, but it lacks something.

Post by: myuman on February 10, 2003, 07:30:00 am: This topic came up before and like I always said.... A bunch of overhyped guys conversing in icelandic is nothing more than unique. But my take on it after observing this band rise up over the past couple of years is.... yeah, something is missing. But the "hype train" moves with a lot of inertia.... so their recent "craze" is not suprising. I honeslty wouldn't mind attending, but my wife will be extremely prego at that time... and after a yawning Spiritualize experience in my past.... I'm going to pass on this one.
