Wtf...not Nirvana.

The vocals sound like a mix between Liam Gallagher, Craig Nicholls, and Anthony Kiedis.
The band sounds like a mix between The Libertines and Franz Ferdinand.
Ahh, this is only my opinion, I only listened to two songs so it's from that.
I like them, I think they were on some website like Black Mountain or something, the art reminded me of Pink Mountaintops or something, nvm.
Yeah, I like them.

Ohhh, i looove Nine Black Alps, absolutely awesome. They're actually great.

i'm recommending 'not everyone' and 'shot down'

DidierD · 06-09-2005, 02:16 PM

well 'not everyone' sounds very grungy and nirvana esque in my opinion, sorry. the rest is similair but much more tuned away from it
