Oh OK! :tup I think that's a good thing. Too many bands tries to recreate their albums over and over.

It's much more mature and serious. It lacks the lighthearted fluffiness of Room Noises. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, that's just the way it is.

Yeah, Room Noises is much more 'whimsical', musically and lyrically.

Well i didn't really question that it would sound different, but i guess the music doesn't really do as much for me as it does for some others here. :P
I do think Room Noises is a great album, not a single bad track, but overall it didn't made me think: "OMG, i HAVE to buy this like NOW", i smile when i listen to it, and it has a positive feeling overall. :)
Maybe i'll check out the other album in the future, but there's a lot of other artists/bands i've discovered lately that has had a bigger effect on me, so to speak.

I hope we see that style again on the third album.

I love that. The majority of my music is sad and serious.

From the bits I've heard of it, it sounds really good.

I've heard Ambulance and I like it a lot. I still want there to be some whimsical songs on the next album though.

In other news, One Day I Slowly Floated Away's chorus makes me bounce up and down in my chair. So irresistible.

Are all the B-sides scattered through all their EPs and singles worth looking into? There's quite a few of them...
Cole: "Ow I just got hit in the balls"
Me: "How?"
Cole: "Well you know when you try to scratch your balls, and you scratch too hard?
I'll admit sometimes I want to listen to Dragonforce.

I tried showing Eisley to a friend and he said they sounded too much like Coldplay.

I totally see the comparison, besides the fact that Coldplay is boring as fuck.

I guess I haven't heard enough Coldplay to make a comparison. I assumed he was being retarded.

I'm always confused...who is the main singer of Eisley? And do they switch singing duty with songs?

It's not quite 50/50...Stacy and Sherri do share vocal duties, but Sherri does a bit more than Stacy. Usually.

I have a hard time distinguishing who is who on vocals.

So do I sometimes. A good rule of thumb is to remember that Stacy is slightly lower in pitch than Sherri.

Pretty much. It really depends on the song.

Here's a good way to get used to who's who...listen to the songs "I Wasn't Prepared" and "Trolley Wood." Both songs start with Sherri. In I Wasn't Prepared, Stacy enters at about 0:57. In Trolley Wood, Stacy enters at about 0:40. That should give you a basic idea of the differences in their voices.

Can those of us who aren't sure if we will be attending still expect a surprise tonight?

Tour Dates yo:


16 Orlando, FL The Social

If I can scrape up the cash for a ticket, I can totally make it to this show. It's a five or so hour drive, but I'm not scared.
