View Full Version : The Abbasi Brothers
Ambeint, shoegazy goodness.
Vinh is a big fan, so you know it's good.
Please let this thread get more than 5 replies.
I wonder if I put "(fucking official)" in the thread title if it would get more replies, ha.

It probably would.
I picked up Something Like Nostalgia from the reccommendation from Vinh, and yes, It is good.

Well at least you gave it a try before discarding it.
Lack of vocals + no pop sensibilities = Ben no likey

You with a big avatar is such a weird site.
In other news, Something Like Nostalgia is fantastic.

Love the oriental influences on "Mr. Boe."

Hmm good pick indeed. Although the title track has to be one of my favorites.
I'm not sure which one is my favorite. Stacey Day Parade packs a pretty good punch.

Yessir it does. That piano riff throughout is amazing. It's great opener to say the least.

I don't even know the track names, I just listen straight through with this type of music.

Which is probably a good thing, since i think most albums like this are designed to be streamed all at once, straight through.

They are alright. Getting better. They friended me on myspace like 2 years ago and I accepted due to the fact that they sounded decent.

If you want more replies, post something along the lines "MBV fucking suck, The Abbasi Brothers are the best Shoegaze band" :-p
Will check these guys out a bit later.

Yep, no set date but they've said definitely a new release in 09.

Yeah, but most of my threads don't even get that participation, ha.

True, which is odd considering that I post in your other ones too.
