while we are covering all the bases here: on the reggae front, Phaddy Noob Baddy from NYE was a nice treat.

start your own thread!!!

MODS!!!

for real though, now that we\'re mostly all on the same page here, i\'d just like to offer up some tasteful electronic improv. the band is the bays. they\'re all improv, all the time. they don\'t have songs. they don\'t practice. their motto is "the performance is the product." they\'re legit, i swear.

here\'s a link to one of their performances with an orchestra. it\'s all composed live and it\'s really amazing to see what these guys can do. you can click and just listen, or you can right click and save. enjoy

Don\'t worry The Breakfast will not suck as long as Todd Stoops never plays another show with the band

ooooooooooooooo harshness

i\'d also like to point out we\'ve lost all those raq fans on our board who signed up for a day when they thought stoops was permanently in the band.

not true, i talked to a raq fan in SERacuse who is on the board. they are still around, just cause they don\'t post often doesn\'t mean their gone.

anyone who supports this thread needs to pull the electronic dicks out of their ears.

The breakfasts sound, which already includes plenty of electronic sounds, is fine the way it is. In fact it is fucking amazing the way it is.

If you want more electronic sounds listen to more of the 100 other bands in this scene who have completely sold out to that played out, cheezey ass style.

Don\'t push that shit on this band which does not need it just to sell tickets to noobs and satisfy your own cravings for electriconic cock sucking.

:yay: BRAVO!
Damn Klout everytime I think I\'m over your posting BS you come through with a post like this!

klout, please...just because you don\'t like it doesn\'t mean it wouldn\'t even be worth experimenting with. nobody\'s saying the breakfast isn\'t great. it\'s been great for the last 10 years as far as i\'m concerned...and it really hasn\'t changed that much either. for a band that prides itself on stretching themselves to the limits, i think this would be an interesting turn. i agree: there are many, many shitty "jamtronica" bands out there. but i can\'t believe that you don\'t think a group with this much talent would be in the same league as them. and i\'m not pushing shit on anybody. i said this is what i want...not that they should do it. it really disappoints me that this group of fans would have such a myopic view

and for the record: this band does need noobs

I\'ve kicked this shit around in my head for a long time... 1st and formost.. YES they need NOOBS in the biggest imaginable way! Changing the sound.... NOOOOOOO...... Broadening the stroke a bit...... YESSSSSSSS.... Anything that broadens the dynamic and make the band grow is a good thing. Abandon all things breakfast to sound like LOTUS...:banghead:
but incorporating some trancier segments into the mix... probably a great idea especially if they ever get on a bisco show. Let\'s face it.. we need lots of new faces and the trend is certainly leaning in favor of
a) jamtronica
b) indie
I think it was stated already but if with the undeniable talent in the band.. they can pretty much try anything and make it sound like BLISS!

well josh, from a personal standpoint, i just dont agree.  from a business standpoint, i say yes and no.  yeah those are the trends, but i think that the undeniable talent you speak of would allow them to be successful (and very successful IMO) without having to succumb to the trends.  i see good bands succumb to trends and 99 times out of 100, they\'re gone from the spotlight as quickly as they hopped into it.  adding electronic elements to their music isn\'t going to make them successful.  hard work in areas OTHER than playing music is going to make them successful.  a bunch of bisco fans that got excited by some shit that reminded them of bisco aren\'t going to be the same type of fans you see on the board today.  they way to accumulate superfans is through musical honesty.  for some bands that means electronica, for other bands it doesn\'t.  i just think that if we\'re talking about ways of raising the breakfast\'s status in the business, getting trancy is LOW on the list.  unless they\'re goal is a quick swim in the spot light and NOT a long term career.

some good points. maybe a better way to go about it would be for the band to seek out some electronic elements that they genuniely like and would like to incorporate into the sound. i\'ve always imagined that the members of the band are always seeking new music in addition to creating new music. now, maybe the new elements they find aren\'t necessarily electronic...that\'s just something i\'d selfishly like to see (and why i started the thread).

i am a huge bisco fan but must say that the breakfast are amazing the way they are and shouldnt change. Barber is an amazing guitarist that is now constricted by the untz genre. There is nothing wrong with that as I said before I love the biscuits, but I dont want to see Tim ever limited by his face melting abilities.

matter of fact a lot of old school bisco fans wish bisco wasn\'t so electronic

screw all of this. breakfast should play polka. get chris a tuba, tim an washtub bass and jordan an accoridan / harmonica. That\'s what all the kids are into these days and if there\'s one thing a band should do, it\'s completely abandon there style and work in all new genres only because it\'s popular.
