Laughing City and Chauntelle...just because I've probably conversed with her the most, but they are all sweet and wonderful people.

In the prior thread about favorite song I said old version of Telescope Eyes but as of now it is Head Against the Sky. Weston is my favorite member, he seems pretty cool and doesn't get enough fan appreciation.

Lady of the Wood - I think it has all the things I love about Eisley in it. The haunting beginning, whimsical lyrics, strong vocals by Stacy, and it just happens to be a wonderfull written song, I think. Oh, and I really like the bass in it.

I don't have a favourite member.

I tend to listen to the eps more than the album because they have a quiet uneasiness that the cd doesn't pick up on so much. They feel more threatening which stops the tweeness from becoming too saccarine, stills it on the edge of whimsy. I love the eepy-creepy comforting magical strangeness of Over The Mountains Smile Toes splintering on the mossy turf.

I think One Day I Slowly Floated Away kind of has that too, morbid buggers that they are. :p And I really like Plenty of Paper which is just slightly self-aware, as if it was written by EISLEY as a construct, their own image as shine-faced Southern cherubs in mind. "Our charming looks, our identical hands" Smile I also think One Day I Slowly Floated away has some very fine whimsical imagery, and I like the sense of encroaching mortality that underlies the song:

"Our bodies are growing thin
Glimpsing the peeling paint off
The Nurse's ivory chin"

Yellow-wallpapered rooms with antiquated mirrors, the spindly Victorian nurse decomposing in the corner Razz

Blackened Crown in its childish simplicity is very emotionally affecting and the version of Memories on Marvelous Things has some great storytelling techniques combined with an otherworldly eeriness that encapsulates a lot of what I like about Eisley.

However, if you caught me in a certain frame of mind when the day is bright and I am cheery, then Treetops is the most spiffy of all. Very Happy

I don't know them well enough to 'pick' a favourite member and if I knew them well enough I couldn't do it! Razz
