 Post subject: "Who do they sound like?"Posted: Wed Dec 15, 2004 8:56 am 
when faced with that question, what is one to say? i told some people about Eisley and they asked the same question. so, the first thing that came to mind was, "do you like Radiohead? Death Cab for Cutie? Rilo Kiley? i'm sure you'll like Eisley." but they don't sound like them. |

They sound like Eisley. Barring that, I suppose you could say they sound a bit like Sixpence None the Richer, the Innocence Mission, old-school Jewel, and a few others... but very, very different. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

such a hard question. I think they kind of sound like the "blue oyster cult" if you ask me. _________________

they sound like good. that's what i say, and people roll their eyes at me and i'm like "dude, if you listen to them, you'll understand" and then they do and they go "yeah, that's probably the best answer you can come up with" I RULE _________________ welcome to the no pants club boone |

When people ask me that question I hand them a mix of live bootlegs that I carry around. _________________ Power is only pain It’s probably better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.

i just say an awesome band, give the person a listen, and let Eisley's music do the rest. it works 9 out of 9 times. _________________ http://www.audioscrobbler.com/user/Gameboybob/ http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=gameboybob http://www.myspace.com/thegameboy |
