—Ok, so Eisley's myspace has this section for listing other bands that would give unfamiliar prospects an idea of what kind of music Eisley makes. The weird thing about this.... is they haven't listed any! —If YOU were Eisley: would you also decide, that since your music is so unbelievably unmatched and unique sounding, to not list any other bands in the "sounds like" section? —If not, which other band or bands do you think would make sense being listed there? Think about it now, are there even just a few out there that might be a little bit similar? |

... I agree with Eisley. No one sounds like you _________________ "Aren't we all hanging from a fragile vine awaiting an inevitable plunge to doom while mice gnaw at our temporary safety? What else should we do but eat a strawberry?" http://www.mewsite.com/ |

The only one I would even REMOTELY sounds like Eisley is maybe...Midlake. To me, they sound like a cross between Radiohead and Eisley (which is sort of funny...just because there are some less obvious similarities between Eisley and Radiohead.) kyle |

I have a pretty hard time matching Eisley's sound to any other bands. There are some similarities to other bands. Mostly in terms of tones. Vocals tend to sound like a clearer Leigh Nash(this goes for both Sherri and Stacy). Guitar tones are jangly, which probably has something to do with the gear that is being used. I mean, can you get anymore holy grail of guitar tone than a Rickenbacker running into an AC30? You can really hear their influences through their harmonies though. _________________ Thistledown |

Weird. But whatever. I can see that to some degree. Mostly in the waves of amazing sound aspect. _________________ Thistledown |

They sound a lot like Sixpence none the Richer, but I still prefer Eisley! _________________ http://www.myspace.com/flippinsweetpeppermints "Time is a vapour" |

i had eisley playing at work and a man with his child came in and asked who it was... when i told him he said, "oh i thought it may have been sigur ros..." then he went on to compare them to radiohead's 'kid a' album... i feel though that while there are some similarities to other bands... eisley is in a league of their own soundwise... _________________ THE AUDIOSCROBBLER!

They are like nothing I have ever heard before, and that's why I love them so much! They are totally unique and different which to be so different and so good is hard to do these days, so many bands just imitate other bands, and true they may be good, but they are not unique, Eisley is Extremely unique and good!! If they sound like another band then I haven't heard the other band because they are Unique to me!! _________________ "What are we holding onto, Sam?"
