Elephant 6 Collective (lyrics, great song, talented, bands, song)

enemyat_thesix · 03-13-2007, 11:14 PM

In my opinion, the most talented, versatile, and genuinely unique group of musicians ever. From famed outfits such as Of Montreal and NMH, to more avantgarde acts like Major Organ and OTC, these guys will--or should--go down in history as one of music's most influential groups.

Discuss. Hate. Appreciate.

I like pretty much all of Elephant 6 acts. I've yet to hear one I didn't like.

My only problem with it is that it's a bit samey after a while , I can only listen to tweeness in small doses.

My friend likes Of Montreal, I think they're pretty boring.

Neutral Milk Hotel are OK, but I don't get why they're so acclaimed.

I was listening to NMH again there. Communist Daughter is such a great song, with some very intriguing lyrics as well.

Other projects are good but I find Elephant 6 to be especially horrible.

Are you serious? Explain yourself sir!

To me they're just really dull and cheesy.
