Noah and the Whale: Jesus Christ look at these fucking gobshites

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/44819000/jpg/_44819042_noah_photos_300.jpg

The album certainly balances the optimistic tracks with more melancholic, introspective songs like Peaceful The World Lays Me Down.

Charlie: Absolutely. Theoretically you could put Five Years Time and Peaceful back to back and think it was two different bands. But we worked really hard to make the songs linked thematically.

So if you just take Five Years Time you might get a quote like "Blue Peter Pogues" - but if you hear Peaceful and get the cross-reference of the two, then you get a picture of what the band is.

So if you absolutely had to compare your music to a children's TV show and another band, what would you say?

Charlie: We could have a really dark band, like Slipknot

Urby: And Superted. We are the Superted Slipknot!

I would describe them as "The Feeling taken to even higher heights of faggotry"

Are they a Decemberists cover band?

Saw these on the Culture Show. Total cunts. Stab them 250 times etc.

Aren't they getting their old testament mixed up? I thought it was Jonah, not Noah "and the whale".

should I type this into youtube's search box, or not bother.

oh yeah lolololololol

nah it's probably deliberate so they can be all "aHA! we KNOW!" to any smart-asses who'd dare take them up on their theological knowledge

This is them? It's just...nothing. There's nothing there. It's less compelling than the traffic noise coming in from the street outside.

Are they as bad as The Hoosiers?

What say ye fellows gather up Admiral Sufjan Bespoke Stevens and tour your Chinese junk into THE BERMUDA FUCKING TRIANGLE?

They aren't as bad as the hooisers, but they are more mediocre. Medio-core. The singer's voice is very dislikeable. I think I'm going to watch a few clips of Dick Powell & Ruby Keeler to push this shit out of my mind.

They're like a musically inept versiuon of they might be giants.

Will they do a comedy cover of The Israelites?

Also what happened to Jimmy Saville on the far right?

Oh hang on that's a different band that look like twats.

There are several.

Um, the single seemed OK, but if it's *all* like that, oh no.

HEY.
Lay off The Mystery Jets. If you want a band that look like twats and sound like it too then you're looking for...

I'd be more than happy is this became a 'post pictures of twattish indie bands' thread.

but do not post their names.

It just gives them the oxygen of PUBLICITY!

prop rock = boring bands that employ wacky props to differentiate themselves

Laura Marling used to be in Noah and the etc.

Mystery Jets dropped the dad and look like this now:

Were the above pictures taken in 2002? If so, forgivable. If not, then what?

I heard these guys are planning a punk album next.

every wide shot of this band makes me think it's just the Jonas Bros. with some malnourished albino kid that the Make A Wish people let hang out with them.

I think when you hit your mid-twenties and most of new bands out there are either your age or a bit younger, it's harder to tolerate their twattishness and give them the benefit of the doubt. Try growing old enough to be their parents. You get all "take that stupid hat off, get your head out of your ass and NO YOU CAN"T BORROW THE CAR."

Flatmate's friend just taken the drumming gig for this band. Lolpoor cunt.

RIP, and this after Pete Paphides hailed their latest album as a masterpiece (o_O)

Band devastated by guitar theft

The band are on a 12-date UK tour
Indie-folk band Noah And The Whale have vowed to continue a UK tour despite having all of their equipment stolen from a car park in Manchester.
The gear - including vintage guitars, brass instruments and the drum kit - were taken from a car park near the Club Academy venue on Tuesday night.
Lead singer Charlie Fink said he was "unbelievably devastated" but vowed to carry on with borrowed instruments.
Greater Manchester Police said it had yet to receive a report of the theft.
Band members are still trying to put an estimated value on the haul, which was locked in a trailer.
But they hope the unusual nature of the equipment - which includes a number of left-handed guitars - will help track it down.

Fink said he was particularly upset about losing his guitar, which he used on latest album The First Days Of Spring.
He said: "None of it's about the money, it's genuinely irreplaceable stuff.
"There aren't replacements of these items. My Fender Jaguar 1963, for example, I've had that for ages and my entire sound is based on that guitar.
"It's very rare, I've only found one of those guitars. But even if there was a duplicate it wouldn't ever sound the same.
"It's hard to explain the relationship you have with a guitar."
The trailer also contained a left-handed Gibson Les Paul Gold Top Deluxe and a left-handed Fender Telecaster in sunburst colour.
Theft 'devastating'
A Gibson Goldtone GA-30 RVS Amp, a Ludwig silver/white oyster finish drum kit and a Fender 66 Precision Bass were also stolen.
Fink added: "The most frustrating thing is whoever's done this has no understanding of what he's done. He has no idea of what it all means to us.
"We load up our own stuff, we carry our own gear. We do it with all our own money - it's devastating."
Fink hopes to borrow equipment for the rest of the tour, which takes them to the US after playing 12 more UK dates.
"We're not going to cancel any shows, we'll find another way to do it," he added.
Anyone who knows the whereabouts of the equipment is asked to contact the band through their website or MySpace page.

Egyptian Hip-Hop. Jesus Christ look at this fucking gobshites.

i'm too busy feeling sorry for them to hate them

Who needs to listen to Noah & The Whale when you can just smash your teeth out with a hammer while thinking about The Magnetic Fields

wtf is this mumford crap i keep hearing about today

Egyptian Hip-Hop look like What's a goodf band name for these dudes?

Oh joy:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbGUEelmzxo

New album's actually pretty good. A complete change of tack to sleek 80s rock (Full Moon Fever would be a decent comparison point). Never liked them before, but starting to admire Charlie Fink's willingness to do something different every time he goes in a studio, regardless of the fact that the people who liked the previous album will be baffled: each has been very different to the last.

*throws bottle*

*dodges bottle and hoists placard reading: 'Noah and the Whale: nowhere near as bad as you think this time round'*

I preferred them when he sounded clinically depressed

Tom Petty influence is crazily obvious there - Free Fallin'/Don't Come Around Here No More vibe.

I kinda like those songs! Suppose I'll have to watch that video now :/

OK, I stopped it after 5 seconds because it's basically Don't Come Around Here No More 2

Second album surprisingly good, for a bunch of cunts.

Like the shitpose there in the second shot.

they're called "family force 5"

???

jesus christ

Family Force 5 (often abbreviated FF5, formerly known as The Phamily and The Brothers) is a Christian crunk rock[3] band from Atlanta, Georgia.[3]

Jesus Christ indeed

lock internet

there's a yacht remix by these guys which i really like, somewhat odd considering both yacht & noah atw are utterly shithouse on their own

FF5z crabbin it in the 11 yo

They consist of Solomon "Soul Glow Activatur" Olds, Jacob "Crouton" Olds, Joshua "Fatty" Olds, Nathan "Nadaddy" Currin, and Derek "Chap Stique" Mount.

the life goes on single has to be the most intolerable shite since toploader unloaded dancing in the moonlight on the world.

can't bear to look at the lyrics but there's a whole lotta smugness goin on i suspect.

fatty manages to lose the least dignity here, esp in the first one with farting mime, wizard creep, dr. evils boring cousin and dumpy christian bale

I've listened to every single band since opening this thread. I'm finding ZZ Top's "Mescalero" to be a good antidote to the Shitey McWhitey devilishness going on here
