    Anyone have any Polyphonic Sprees?
    I was talking to this girl named Apotsale. She says she is in a band, I ask if she plays an instrument or sings. She sings. She tells me the name of the band. I never heard of them but as she described what they do it sounded very interesting. Then I ask have you ever recorded. She says yes, they have 4 albums and done the soundtrack for Thumbsucker. They have a chorus but it's not like Viking Metal, it's more like 5th Dimension, the band has horns, a harp and various instruments.

    I listened to the samples of their latest album. I'm not sure, so I thought I'd see if anyone has anything by them and what your thoughts are. I do like some of the bits I've heard and they do seem to have found a unique sound. I will probably go ahead and buy the new album it's supposed to be the most accomplished according to the reviews. I think it may end up being a treat if the recording is good.

    They are ok, their first album was much better than their followup, which is also on DVD-A.

    They opened for David Bowie when I saw him about 6 years ago or so. I wasn't impressed by them.

    To me, they sound like a ghey version of Cheap Trick.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that. :15:
