Well to let you all know about this band...they are progressive! They have this..funky sound along with some hard guitar with some jazz and well basically...good music! Now they hate that people only listen to them because their music gets (I think) mainstream radio play. I want people to know them...other than that. Now how I became a fan was because of World Tour. Then ever since then I got help from a friend who really is a fan. So yeah their stuff is good. BUT! there new album Octahedron isn't what people expected! They warned somone that if they didn't stop then they'll make a pop soundtrack and well.....here ya go. I don't know the full story on why they made it like this but....I can't say anything good nor bad about them. But I wanted to see if anyone here is a fan or atleast heard some of their songs before this album. They did release a video for their single "Since We've Been Wrong". Eh it's way different from their previous work but it has it's moment. Well back to topic is anyone a fan first? And if you are then what is your opinion on this album!


Oh and here's a pic!....well I'll give a link becuase it's weird but it has a small.....nudity part. Sorry! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tmv-octahedron.jpg

I'm totally honest when I say that I have heard their name more than once but have never heard a single song by them. I think I'll check them out next week, judging by your description they're definitely worth it... Not sure of the pop thing though, without a few exceptions pop sucks. But yeah, I'll better check some stuff out and then let you know what I think. Thanks for all the info! smile.gif
