 Post subject: Who shall Eisley take the place of?Posted: Wed Nov 24, 2004 7:52 am 
First I'll list the 5 top bands of all times in no specific order. The Beatles Led Zepplin Pink Floyd Radiohead The Pixies First its non-debatable who is the top five best bands of all time...because here they are 
I am not going to use a poll because I hate them. and who shall Eisley replace in the very near future? _________________ can simultaneously snap fingers and blink. |

Thoughts I think they'll take the place of none of these... But if they succeed in carving out their own, small piece of real estate in our minds...how nice. I'd rather see another plaque near the ones you've mentioned. Maybe it could say: "Eilsey. A Special Kind of Music Was for Us..." _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

Actually, I'm not that into the Pixies as I'd like to be. I don't think Eisley will replace them, though. I don't think Eisley will replace anyone on that list. I'm with Boyd; if my band had the options, I think we'd rather be ranked somewhere next to or slightly below all of them in the minds of the general populace. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

woah, Kevin. a huge compliment. If Eisley were even to come close to rivaling the impact of Fleetwood Mac, it would blow the lid off my tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny brain. Look, at this point, it would blow the lid off my tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny brain if they even got a song that charted on Nat'l radio...like even way way down on the list. But, sorry... no way to replace Fleetwood Mac. And...how many hits did "Rumors" have on it again? Sheesh... _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

I don't know ... I think Eisley is too unique to take the place of any band at all. If they become hugely successful, they'll be in a musical niche all their own ... it'll be because they're so different from everything else. If I HAD to choose a band they could possibly take the place of(sound wise), I'd say a cross between U2, Sorta and Ed Harcourt, even if the last two bands aren't that big ... I say U2 for the kind of dreamy feel you get when you're listening to both Eisley and U2. The same with Sorta ... the keys in both Eisley and Sorta are really great. And Ed Harcourt for the really beautiful, lovely lovely lyrics. _________________ If the end of the world has proper noodles I'll probably be okay with it. |

Led Zepplin Pink Floyd Radiohead The Pixies I'd swap U2 for the Pixies there, personally. |
