Whats peoples views on these lot?

Personally im finding it very hard to get into them at all. Dont know why it is they just sound odd.

They are ok, a bit 'meh'

Good live though.

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

heard one song and i liked it, but only once i managed to shake off the refused connection, from what i heard anyone looking for a similar ruckus would be sorely dissappointed, myself included i guess, was pleasant enough tho..

Yeah i have "A new morning, changing weather" and "Survival Sickness".

I think that the latter is the best at the moment but that will probably change.

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

they are a good band, just without much variation. there isnt really much musically that links them with refused, i still cant really recognise the similarity in his voice in both bands.

they are shit, and their whole political angle is hilarious.

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

Do you feel the same about Refused's political angle as well?

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

Why would that be then?

Im guessing its the whole capitilism thing which does seem quite strange to me as i dont think i could live under a communist regime, or even live witout the freedoms we have with capitilism.

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

its alright, they can believe in that if they like, but when they do photo shoots they are all dressed in designer jeans and brand new converse hi-tops, I dunno it seems a bit fake and stuff, like a pose.

I scrap what I said about RefusedI was just really disappointed when I heard their music, cos pretty much every I knew said I'd love them, and I was a bit underwelmed.

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

I had the opposite feelings about Refused as their music really blew me away.

I think its better just stumbling across a band rather than having loads of stuff said about them beforehand.

It sort of gives you a clear mind and leaves it up to your opinions rather than anyone elses.

They were quite good for about 5 seconds but these days I wish they would just cock off. And come back when they've thought about what they've done, and written better songs.

Re: The (International) Noise Consipracy

their first album, survival sickness, is great. then they started sounding a bit like U2, with dodgier politics.
