Here it is... the Mew's thread in MS ![]() For ones who haven't heard of this band, they're 3 (in the past, 4) talented musicians from Denmark, playing a music which can be described as Indie/Art Rock or, as the band once referred themselves, 'Pretentious Art Rock'. They've released 4 albums so far, and i can say that all of them are really really good, especially the breakthrough 'Frengers' (i was totally impressed since the very first minute of this album). The unique point about this band, to me, is the voice of Jonas (think of something so soft and ethereal then you may have an idea of his voice. The first time i listened to Jonas' vocals in 'Am I Wry?No" i even thought like 'whawww this GIRL rocks!!' ![]() ![]() And if you want a try, here are some links for you : http://youtube.com/watch?v=3WwkN_EUhJ : Zookeeper's Boy http://youtube.com/watch?v=IHnQB6CnlKI&feature=related : Am I Wry? No http://youtube.com/watch?v=4JVUvC74D8w&feature=related : Comforting Sounds So, that's it, what do you think about these guys? ![]()

I honestly think they are overrated big time...and I really don't like the voice of the vocalist. He's so annoying when he tries to cry his heart out

@duyhung: yeah sure we can...the overrated part is mainly because they got so much air time on the radiostations here whenever they released something and that was very annoying if you didn't like the music and everybody was constantly talking about them...a lot of my friends like them for some reason

I really love Mew. They're one of my favourites. Some of their songs, easpecially from the two first albums, tend to be a bit average, but then again some of the other songs are so fantastic that I get goose bumps just from thinking about them. "Comforting sounds" and "White Lips Kissed" are among the best songs I know of. I've seen them live two times, both shows were great.

I've seen them at Rockefeller, Norway, and at the Norwegian Wood festival, which is of course also in Norway, both shows in 2006. Does anybody know if they're planning a new album yet? I want more Mew!

I can see why a lot of people wouldn't like the vocalist, he is a bit cutesy and frail. I think that kinda makes the beauty of the music they write though. Excuse me while I stick on "Frengers". ![]()
