The Vines + The Hives = The Exact Same Music

Post by Fat Tony »

Can anyone here tell the difference between The Hives and The Vines' music? I can't.

Yeah, exactly, and their suck factor is proportional to how much I like the established bands, but not how you'd expect. I like Nirvana a lot, hate the Vines, I'm lukewarm about the Stones, and just don't care for the Hives for the most part.

I think the Vines actually have some talent and room to grow, good musicians; but the hives, meh, crappy vocals and the same ole tired tunes. I hope they crap out rather quickly.

They're from New Zealand. I've only heard a couple of songs by them (of which I can only remember one title 'MF from hell') but they sounded just like the Vines, Hives, etc.

The White Stripes, in their own right, don't actually sound anything like the Vines or the Hives.

Let's just settle with any bands starting with "The" suck.
Some of you probably think I left. But was I ever here to start?
