This is one of my friends musicial projects. It's based around acoustic stuff, but he plays drums, bass, keys, and accordian on all the recordings, too. In my opinion, he is one of the best musicians I've heard in recent time.

Check him out. If you don't like him.. whatever. Some of you might.

The bands name prohibits me from checking out the actual music.

It's not my band..
I guess a name really does dictate what it sounds like.. right? Wrong.

It doesn't.
However, it does dictate whether or not listeners will take the music, or the band seriously.

It's not even a band. It's one dude. You don't have to take it seriously. He's a ridiculously talented dude. If you don't want to check it out.. then don't.

look
you need to realize kids(and more importantly INDUSTRY people) are more likely to take his name or a better more serious band name as opposed to a joke-ish one.
That's why Don't Pass Go changed their name to The Morning Of... well one reason.
That being said he's pretty good.
But not the best musician in a long time.
I'm liking this, alot.
Though I wouldn't say he is one of the best musicians, but who am I to define "best."

I did say one of the best musicians that I'VE heard in recent times.. :P
He's not worried about industry people signing him. He just plays music because he loves to play music. He's release 3 full lengths and 2 EPs before even making a Myspace/Purevolume. If you could hear everything that he's done.. your opinion might be different.
I'm glad some of you liked him. He's a good dude.
His voice isn't the best voice, but I've grown to love it. He has his other albums for download on his site. http://www.combovers.net/
Note: The recordings get worse as you go back. He's been learning gradually.
This full-length would've been done had his recorder not broken.
I'm sorry that I sound like a ***got.. but he's an awesome dude. I just want to spread the awesome*.
*In my opinion, it's awesome.
