 Post subject: Eisley fans get really crazy about this band xDPosted: Mon Mar 30, 2009 3:39 pm 
Not that it's a bad thing, in fact it's awesome. My family members always get mad because I'm pretty much obsessed with Eisley. The only other person I've met who listened to Eisley was also described as 'obsessed' with the band...It's awesome, no? I think it's because of how open and friendly Eisley is  _________________ Kneel before your god Babylon!

My ex was an "offline" Eisley fan, and I was always the one to head online for updates on projects and foraging for tracks that I didn't know about etc. She would have never sought out the EP1 or EP2 tracks or bothered to download the B-sides from itunes. So that would make her less crazy about Eisley? She did buy Room Noises at Hastings on a humbug before I got my copy, but prior to that I'd bought Laughing City and Marvelous things, which I played for her. Maybe that's why she's an "Ex", and not a current? I would chalk up the devotion to their "underdog" status. They are in the big leagues, which is a huge accomplishment, and yet, they are not over-exposed or saturating the market. They are just doing their thing, live and let live. That engenders trust on my part. Trust makes fans for life. _________________ yup, that's my name. FOR YOUR RATING PLEASURE: 4 LIKE Buttons, 1 NEUTRAL, 1 VEXED, 5 DISLIKE buttons. LC > FB

I tend to ignore bands that are "big" or you might here on the radio because it kind of reminds me of how some singers and bands don't write their music or songs and sometimes don't really play music; sometimes a lot of the music sounds the same. But sometimes it doesn't, but I still prefer listening to bands that are not as popular. Eisley is pretty much one of those bands who isn't that popular, but you can still find over 500 videos on youtube of. _________________ Kneel before your god Babylon!

I drive everybody I know crazy, talking about Eisley all the time, but I think it's mostly because they're not familiar with them! What are you gonna do? _________________ Mike=] |

I really can't understand why Eisley isn't more widely known and appreciated~ but I, for one, can say that they've changed my life since I discovered them about three years ago. Best band ever!! _________________ Dan and daughter, Samantha - We Love Eisley! |

I agree...and it was just chance that I discovered them because I just happened to be walking by when my sister was watching the Invasion video on AOL on demand (a digital cable channel)...I kinda like that they aren't widely known; especially since if you think about it, they are pretty popular for a band that isn't very popular...know what I mean, sometimes that sounds like it doesn't make sense, but I mean you'll never have any trouble finding videos and clips on youtube of them. _________________ Kneel before your god Babylon!

Eisley is actually the only band I'll called myself "obsessed" with. I own both their CDs, which saying a lot, because I NEVER buy full CDs.  My entire family thinks I'm crazy, and my friends are convinced Eisley is weird, but I don't care! Stacy, Sherri, Garron, Weston, and Chauntelle will always be close to my heart. <3

I never buy them either, I limewire xD, but I do want to buy Eisley's older CDs and I am planning on buying their next one the first day it comes out. _________________ Kneel before your god Babylon!
