To the unenligtened, this may sound like a joke/gibberish,
but are any of you excellent individuals familiar with this
band? I found out they existed trough the danny elfman
link... tell me what you think. i'm like them a lot right at
this moment.

you know thats a HARD question...um damn...I guess its a
little funk punk and harmony and wierd progressions, and
elfmans awsome song writing...PLUS HIS VOICE

I hope that wasnt a lame description

I dont know too much about them YET! but only a lad seems to
have the material i like the best up till now. I want
everything theyve made, right at this moment... but i really
really want to investigate more. I've just been a fan of
Danny Elfmans music since seeing Nightmare before christmas,
and then beginning to notice how he fucking produces 50% of
all good film music out there! Weirdly enogh, ive just
gotten into oingo boingo lately, even though i've known of
Dannys genius for a long time.

We have something in common i guess... Cure fan here 2....
=))))) (Espicially when they use a lot of synths!!!)

Well, it appears that oingo is based mainly on Danny Elfmans
unique voice, ingenious compositions and weirdness in a
superb blend!! thats what i know about them at least.

Its always great to know you're not alone in the world! I
feel like that right now....

If you really want to be cool, you might wery well like
these two bands:
Superheroes
Mew

Try checking them out on kazaa or something.... theyre
danish, but they will have global record deals wery soon,
and if you get to learn them now, youll seem wery cool in
the future! theyre the perfect blend of rock/ 80 sound and
wery personal voices and clever music making!! CHECK IT
OUT!! and drop me a mail if you like, i really want you to
get into these bands!!

my new mail is hansi.larsen@get2net.dk

Mew: Snow brigade
is this the new video song?

the video.... awful at frst when he sings and tries to sound
and look like a cute little girl
but then when he shuts up it gets
good. they play their jazzmasters and it gets louder and
louder.
and the six
last seconds
are excellent. brrr

So anyway, did anyone check out the two bands i mentioned.

Just to clear things up, they are both danish, hence i have
the inside information. This will be so underground if youre
not from Denmark! this is a great oppertunity to be cool!
