Slowfaller 0 #1 October 3, 2006 And I'm talking down home rock-n-roll served with a side of heartbreak and feeling. Catfish Haven has somewhat exploded and are going to be finally touring the west coast and even making their way across the Atlantic later in the year. I uploaded a song of their's on youtube, give it a listen. If you start getting bored wait until 3:20. That's when they really start jammin'. Here is their song Still Hungover --"Someday you will die and somehow somethings going to steal your carbon" -MM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #2 October 3, 2006 QuoteAnd I'm talking down home rock-n-roll served with a side of heartbreak and feeling. Isn't that called "Country & Western"? So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Slowfaller 0 #3 October 4, 2006 Couldn't tell ya, know nothing about Country and Western. I understand what you're saying though. Catfish Haven has been called swamp rock in reviews and articles. The singers voice has also been compared to Otis Redding and Sam Cooke. That's not me saying that though and it's probably hard to tell from the youtube video. I'm surprised there hasn't been any opinions on their song but maybe it's because I'm not a PW or most people aren't into music like I am.

I hate music snobs that think they are so knowledgeable and have such great taste in music. I didn't click on the link to listen to Catfish Haven, but I wanted to comment.

Well Jeanna, the icon was meant to be taken as a joke. Of course Techno is music. Banging on a pan is music too. Now I'm a music snob? Who are you to say? I just think Catfish Haven is good and wanted to spread the love... Oh and I thought your ice skating videos were pretty good too, you have talent! --"Someday you will die and somehow somethings going to steal your carbon" -MM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeannajumps 0 #6 October 4, 2006 I know, I caught the icon. I have quite a few friends who are very much into indie and underground music. While they still "respect" me because I listen to the same things, they still make fun of me when I say I like a pop song. Very annoying, so it's just a pet peeve of mine. And you know, I never specifically called you a music snob! I like pan music! Plastic buckets and trash cans are even better! QuoteOh and I thought your ice skating videos were pretty good too, you have talent! If my grandma knew how to use a computer I'd link them to her. She absolutly loves ice skating. And I'm being sincere. Thank you! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slowfaller 0 #7 October 4, 2006 It's too bad your friends get on you for liking the occasional pop song. Believe it or not my friends sound very similar to yours, as far as being in to indie/underground. Only a couple would qualify as snobs though. Another peeve of mine are the, "I live in the city(Chicago) you live in the 'burbs" snob. They really get on my nerves. **Disclaimer, these are non-jumpers that have nothing to do with this website. If someone reading this lives in Chicago, said comment doesn't refer to you** If you could find it in you, check out the Haven. If you like it, tell your friends. --"Someday you will die and somehow somethings going to steal your carbon" -MM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeannajumps 0 #8 October 4, 2006 Well your video's sound quality didn't do their music justice, so I actually went to their myspace page to listen to a song or two. I like them, definitely something I'd listen to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slowfaller 0 #9 October 4, 2006 Thanks! These guys need to be heard, three of the nicest guys and they've worked hard to get this far. George, the singer, is like a brother to me and actually is going to be my brother-in-law on June 2nd next year. The video, yeah, a little punchy but I was close to the speakers w/ a sony cyber-shot point and shoot camera. It couldn't handle it all. --"Someday you will die and somehow somethings going to steal your carbon" -MM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
