No
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer..
..no.
lol
Overrated
boring for the most part with 2... maybe 3 really good songs... could do better
Yeah, but this thread isn't about Modest Mouse
Modest Mouse are infinatly better then Born Ruffians
and they didn't need Skins to prove it ;)
Just Orange County :( OOOO FAIL
but yea Modest Mouse >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

No, because Vampire Weekend are terrible
Arctic Monkeys at least did a decent second album. And aren't posh twats.
Born Ruffians are a bit rubbish too.
I'm glad people are starting to forget about BR
I remember when people were wanking over them and I was like errrr they have 2 or 3 good songs.. all the others are hopelessly looking for hooks.
not even going to justify this with an answer
nahhh
As much as the initial claim makes me smile
I have to disagree. Because I don't like Vampire Weekend. And I love Born Ruffians.
Before Zapsta did, as well.
Vampire Weekend + Arctic Monkeys
are pretty shit...
Born Ruffians are great!
Arctic Monkeys > Born Ruffians
especially with their second album
STOP TRYING TO BE SO INDIE MARLVRUM!
BUT IM NOT
IM JUST BEING MASELF CANT HALP BEING INDIE 4 LYFE
Dull
Saw them support Caribou at the Scala. they had one good song and all I heard was mutterrings of Vampire Weekend.
I liked the cowboy they had on their single cover though!
Better than VW for me.
Is Milburn a band?
surely Reverand and The Makers would have worked better?
