Is anyone else into this band? I've been listening to them more and more gradually over the last two years and now they're one of my favorites. They're like a throwback to 90s alternative rock and have a good mix of softer and harder songs. You'll probably recognize "Lazy Eye" from a commercial or two. I'd highly recommend picking up their CD Carnavas.

They have a new CD coming out in April and I was looking for more bands that maybe sound like them. I heard My Bloody Valentine is a good place to start but if you had any recommendations for where to start with them, that'd be cool.



Recommended Silversun Pickups songs:

Melatonin
Well Thought Out Twinkles (My Favorite)
Little Lovers So Polite

The Eye in the Sky!

They're okay. They just don't sound diverse enough to really do much. They grabbed their niche sound but it doesn't really have much to go from here. Lazy Eye and Melatonin are good but I'm not really into the rest of the CD. I've had it since it debuted but rarely listen to anything on it.
