Anyone listen to the Format? Like them?

Songs to listen to:
- First Single
- Lets Make this Moment a Crime
- Tie the Rope

The Format has a sort of "happy-go-lucky" sound.

To those who have never listened to them:
Go listen to them.
Now.

xo, Pauline

Good stuff.
Isn't first single on some commercial/theme song for some show? I could've sworn I've heard this song before...

I.. don't think so? I don't know. I haven't heard it on TV before. But then again, I don't really watch TV.

Download "Let's Make this Moment a Crime", too. I think I prefer that song over "First Single".

They do indeed have a happy-go-lucky sound but their lyrics aren't as happy-go-lucky at some times.
In Tie the Rope:
Just tie the rope
and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there gasping for air
Yeah don't mind me three feet from the ceiling

My friend and I were listening to it in the car one day and we were like "Awww, so happy." Then we listened to the lyrics, stopped dancing, and were like wtf.
I can't say anything with my favorite band as Bright Eyes.
But anyway to get to the point
They are wonderful.

^ Heh, I love bands who do that... where the vocals/melody sound super cheerful but the lyrics are about suicide, murder, or heartbreak. It creates irony.

...I like irony.

I love this band.

Suggestion for further downloads: Give Up, First Single, On Your Porch, and Let's Make This Moment a Crime.

You made them their own freaking thread topic? Oh well, they're worth it.

Format = Love.

Nuff` said. Dang Pauline you should at least leave them a link so if they don't like it they didn't have to download it. Gotta love purevolume.

Let's Make This Moment A Crime is the best song. Trying to get their CD at Streetlight. That reminds me, Pauline we have to go CD hunting at Streetlight. Heckza cool shizz.

Mucho love,

Alyson

The Format is a really cool band, for real. The lead singer is really friendly. My friend and I hung out with them after their show in KC last spring. They're not bad live either, just not my thing.

^Yeah the lead singer is a doll. He is pretty funny too. They are actually pretty damn good live, sound a lot like they do on their CD.

ps James- "music-gasm" I like that!! I am now stealing it =)
