Faith and the Muse

Who likes them? I think they're great. Along with Dream Theater(Who I'll probably also end up making a topic about because I'm annoying), they have to be my most overlistened to band right now.

I really love their music, especially the Burning Season album. Annwyn is a little bit weird but it can be nice to chill to. I think I over listened it a bit though. I liked the more guitars that weren't all chorused thing of TBS.

I don't really have a favourite song by them, they're all so great.

Monica Richards is so pretty too! Wow. I don't like her in the most recent "official" photos on the site so much, she looks kinda old and plain in comparison, but other recent photos she still looks really great!

What's really weird is that she looks like some of the on-stage type constumes I designed for myself, sepcifically this one!

That is so creepy! Well they're not that much alike, but still. When I found that picture of her it made me jump. I even have red hair, a similiar shade to hers! Luckily, mine is lovely and curly.

Keep in mind It was meant to be a slightly different shade of purple in that sprite, my monitor brightness was set way too high that day :P And I decided against the purple skin thing. I think. Maybe not though.

Still, I don't want to be accused of ripping her off if I wear horns. Someone did it before her right :( I have different types of horns anyway that I intend to make, they are golden white and dragon like, and slide kinda back. I've never much intended to do the headdress thing. That would just look silly playing guitar.

I like Annwyn the best out of their first 3 albums. Haven't heard Burning Season yet, but I mean to.

I find them a bit too gothly-goth at times, bit overly ambitious as well... but they've made some cracking songs.

PS are you a fashion/costume designer of some description?
Snap! :D :notworthy:
Well, I'm out of practise at the moment but...

I don't really find them gothly goth at all, their music is a hell of a lot more diverse than most bands I've heard. Sometimes I find it difficult to call it goth at all, epsecially some of the songs on Annwyn.

And I'm not a fashion designer, fashion kind of annoys me :P I just like dressing up.

I still prefer Strange Boutique, Monica's old band. She still sells the back catalogue at the Mercyground site (yes, that is the name) if you want to pick up something. Tell them that someone with Freak's face on some underwear sent you. Seriously. You may not get a discount, but you will get good service.

If anyone happens to have any live tracks of Strange Boutique gigs, pleae let me know. I have been trying to track down copies, but all which I have found I were the two available from Monica's site. She told me that she did not really have much else; what she had may have gotten lost when she moved to the West Coast. Similarly the bassist could not not offer anything listenable.

that must be what I've been drinking lately- it'd explain the sudden expansion of the beergut anyway! :)

I haven't got horns yet though.

Working on it.

I like 'em.

I thought I was the only one.

Elyria still sends a shiver up my spine after 10 years.

Yay! I feel happy now. They're not terribly well known.

They're well known to be terrible? I don't get what's so "terrible" about them. I find them the Burning Season a very refreshing album compared to most of the stuff in the same "alternative rock" or "goth" vein of the time.
Their music isn't the best for the live stage, though they do put on a show. at least Monica does.
They are definitely one of my favourite all time bands.

And they couldn't be particularily well known, otherwise they wouldn't be so nice as to keep adding their "fans" as friends on their MySpace :P

Hey, they're fans of the sisters, let's get them to come here :D

If every band that liked Sisters came here we'd be over run with dodgy darkling teens, most of whom didn't "get it".

You're lucky that there are only two of us :innocent:
