Pffff, I'll call when I get home. I am not worried about creeping anyone out.

the last few pages of this thread have sort of blown my mind.

the singer is very entertaining. i could watch a whole set of it and be fairly engaged, and not just in a "laugh at the crazy guy" sort of way. he's certainly confident about what he's doing and it's cool to watch.. and even root for a little.

but the music is terrible, and pretty 1-dimensional. it sounds like each member is trying to make up their own version of "Ironman" on the spot and repeating what they come up with to make it sound like an actual song (the whole "repeat a mistake and it's no longer a mistake" formula). i'm pretty sure you could find 12 year olds making music like this in any suburban basement. it's really not that unique, and quite boring after the laughter has worn off.

Not unique? Please find and post an example of a song by a band other than Complete that resembles "Beautiful Sunrises." I think this is impossible.

the only time i laughed so far, and i cracked up, in the dozens of times i've listened to these songs today, is when the singer yells "hey sparky, hey spaarkyyy!"

i smile about the music, but i don't laugh.
