Being that I'm an avid fan of the group, it frustrates me to no end when people refer to them simply as a "
Canadian geek humor band", because they are so infinitely much more than that. They are crazy amounts of talented, and the only songs that are really "
geek humor-ish" are the ones that got a lot of air time, like "
One Week" and "
If I Had $1000000". I mean,
damn, so what if they make light of some things, add a bit of humor into their music.. that doesn't mean that's *
all* they are. And can we get a big
EXCUSE ME for the radio stations in the
United States who said they were a NEW group when "
One Week" came out..
ahem. These guys have been around and even popular here in
Canada since, well,
a very long time!
Ignorance bothers me.
Let me introduce you to some of the dreamiest, best songs by this group that you've probably never heard:
That just scratches the surface.. they've got some pretty amazing
lyrical content and the music is very impressive. Oh, and they've a new album coming out soon I believe, it will be called "
Maroon", I think.
I'm passionate about my plant life, but I'm probably even more passionate about my music.
