Dave Matthews Band....

[S...]

I haven't heard much from any lab heads. What do you think? Like or dislike? I personally think the way they put their songs together is pretty much phenomanal(sp?)... i know the fanbase associated with the group is whiny emo modern day beatnik retards, but i love the music..... mucho talent.

[Raider 420]

Not a fan, although their drummer can rip.

[christina]

true, the drummer is on point..but the rest of the band is shitty, especially the singer, i cant stand his voice.

[S...]

Okay, i'll give you that the singer is weak, but WHAT?! You can't deny the guitar skills, and their sax player, violin player and bassist are all extremley talented...........

[mf sw]

I dont buy their music or anything but I think theyre "pretty good".

[hydrogen]

i really can't stand the dave mathews band.
i haven't really gave them a try....but i don't think i EVER WILLLLLL!!!!


nah, whatever floats your boat

[Ojay]

they're alright. some good stuff.. but yeah, his voice does get kinda annoying, but it's also kinda bugged out in a way. there was this one special where he was jammin with all these old broads like carly simon and emmylou harris, and he does have skills..this one song about diggin a hole or some shit..pretty tight.

[S...]

Yeah... i have that. He did some shit w/Johhny Cash and Emmylou that was ill.... also, i have a disc of just some instrumental stuff of his thats good.... it's like a 60 minute jamm session, but they switch up the tempo/style consistantly and it's fresh.

I dunno... they're not my favorite or anything, but i was just curious as to what peeps though. I never saw it discussed......

[mf sw]

maybe I'm giving them too much credit by saying theyre "pretty good" but I think we can all agree that they suck SLIGHTLY LESS than most other mainstream rock bands that are out right now. Like say....... Poppa Roach and Jimmy Eats World?

[S...]

Okay come on now... Papa Roach is just pathetic. That dude should have his vocal chords removed very painfully. And Jimmy Eats World is just as bad as any of the Emo garbage out there today. In fact they're on the forefront.

DMB isn't THAT bad. At least not musically.

I was out of line, I'm sorry. Now I'm not giving them enough credit. Theyre like a little doper than Hootie and the Blowfish. That is about where theyre at I think.

I HATE Dave Mathews. Sdub - you got it right, actually I think they're on par with Hootie, not better, not worse.
It's sad that, living in Seattle, I could live near any number of good musicians but I have to be just a couple of miles from Dave's house. I seriously CAN NOT STAND the guy's music.

[projectreject408]

doode. im not a fan of the type of music they play. not my style. but dave matthews did a song with soullive, and it was off the hook.

[evs]

i admit ikindalike that Crash song right up until he starts singin...they're good musicians, but like any other band (especially local bands) that i usually don't like, the singing just doesn't fly.....
