No thread, about any band, would be complete without something that just doesn't belong.
Thanks.

No problem. I love all three of those albums.




I wonder where JLM is.
She is probably doing Belgium things.
I hope she posts in this thread.

I feel so loved! :wub:
B)

Ah Alex, I was working. Belgian style (long hours).
You know I love this band, thanks for starting this thread. I wonder why I didn't myself?!

Menomena = love. Enough said. I love Dany Seim's voice, it has that special twist. Oh and Justin, such a great great man. And yeah, the music is excellent, too. Saxophone!!
I've seen them live and they blew me away (literally).
Current fav song = Wet and rusting. So suitable.

They are seriously good. I saw them a while back and I was really impressed. It was refreshing--these guys are really good musicians.

Exactly. I got the same impression after seeing them. The music is much more complex than you think after a first listen.

Of all the instruments they use, I've always admired Danny's drumming.

seriously, the guy is talented.

another thing I love are their news letters! that's got nothing to do with their music but they are absolutely hilarious.
