This band used to play at the open mic night I engineer every Monday. The majority of folks in attendance seemed to agree that they were pretty abysmal. Their singer felt the need to remove his shirt just before playing, under which was a gigantic cross. His hair was curly, frizzed and green - all the regulars have since referred to them as "that broccoli band." Detecting no musical sensibility or passion, I wrote it off as godawful bullshit.
They handed me their business card the first time they played, which read:
X-COMMUNICATION
"The New Revolution of Music"

I finally got around to checking out their Myspace profile tonight. I recommend watching the video, and by all means read their wonderfully typo-ed list of influences. Is there something I'm missing? Is this music as bad as I think? I've been wrong before.

I can't believe I just listened to that.
Good thing I farted right after listening, I needed to hear something slightly more revolutionary then the "songs" on that page.
If you still have that business card, you should hand it back to them with a suicide hotline number written on the back and tell them to reprint them with said number for future listeners.

Best song: Don't Cut Yourself
I should note that I just checked out their list of friends. I couldn't figure out how they scraped together over 200 fans, and now I know. They added just about every porn profile they could find. And Fiona Apple.

They will obviously be signed to Sony BMG in the very near future.

I think this belongs in the 'music that scares you' thread

Sounds like TV On The Radio covering Limp Bizkit. CRAP.
Tad Donley probably has him beat on the ratio of myspace whores on his top friends to actual musical talent.

holy shit, you weren't kidding about the whores on their list...

"The New Revolution of Music" - I swear that isn't even English. Don't they mean "The New Music Revolution" or "The New Revolution in Music"? Somebody should tell these guys before it's too late.
