Eisley Tabs and the wikipedia page both say the band doesn't like it, at least. I really like it, so I don't know what's up with that. _________________ ASTER (i'll think of a clever signature someday.) |

It is one of my faves too along with Sleepy Head which is a wonderful song, but they're not a fan of that one either... or so I've heard. _________________

I just think it is not the sound they want to pursue. When they first began their sound was a bit rougher, like "Pretender" and "Dream For Me" (one of my favorite Eisley songs). I think they were initially more heavily influenced by early alternative music. Anyways, I guess their influences have changed somewhat over the years.

i think their new song though kinda mixes the magical sounds of room noises with some of that older rock sound... though, it's a much older rock sound than early alternative... boyd said a few times over the weekend that they're listening to dylan and joni mitchell, etc... so let's just wait in anticipation... oh, and i am dying for vid of many funerals, it's been stuck in my head since sunday! _________________ THE AUDIOSCROBBLER!

Do you like anything you did 5-plus years ago? Same goes here. Everyone is critical of their old work. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

Well... I wouldnt necessarily say that, they did include Pretender in their set at Austin City Limits not long ago. _________________ http://www.myspace.com/thetornpaige www.modernvictorian.etsy.com www.myspace.com/modern_victorian |
