Tim obviously has the best voice and Adrian could sing Rush songs and stuff with a higher voice.

whats the deal?

i don\'t think tim\'s voice is obviously the best. and do they play rush songs now?

yeah but only instrumental Rush songs and that limits them to the ones that aren\'t as good

IMO Kung Fu has some issues vocally and it would be solved if they put Tim on the mic

I think a lot of people would disagree with that.

the two criticisms of this band that i hear

a. too much like phish

b. they cain\'t sing

i\'m not saying i agree. that\'s what i hear from people. i agree that tim should sing more than he does.

i only post these days when necessary...but this is necessary:

Kung Fu sounds NOTHING like Phish...they have a completely different style and unique sound from phish. there literally are few/no comparisons i can make between the two bands, except they are both great.

bdfreetuna · « **Reply #7 on:** October 21, 2011, 01:52:21 pm »

yeah they don\'t sound like Phish at all

I think Kung Fu would be better if Tim sang, less repetition of sections and phrases, and the keyboards were less choppy and in your face all the time

and also Tim doesn\'t let it loose on the guitar often enough

zuke583 · « **Reply #8 on:** October 21, 2011, 02:37:51 pm »

i think the band should get rid of stoops altogether, add a couple tubas, make adrian play with just one hand, and give tim a keytar and a kazoo to replace that stupid guitar

also, rob and dave should switch instruments

but that\'s all

i was refering to the breakfast....not kung fu. the original discussion was tim and adrian singing in kung fu, but i was refering to criticism of the breakfast.....and once again......i didn\'t say that i agreed with either assesment. sorry for the confusion.

oh that\'s weird..

I think vocally The Breakfast is incredible... between Tim, Jordan, Chris and the occasional Adrian

Sundance is one of the most vocally awesome and complex songs

and I agree with Zuke

I see Kung Fu as primarily an instrumental group, similar in style to the killer jazz/rock fusion bands of the 70\'s.

jking · « **Reply #12 on:** October 21, 2011, 03:58:42 pm »

exactly, the style is one of primarily instrumental tunes.

and as much as i love him, tim\'s vocals aren\'t great. they aren\'t bad or awful or anything, but he\'s far too zappa-y and not nearly sing-y enough to be considered a great singer...

again, not a knock, they fit great within certain contexts.

i did, however, have a friend ask me if jordan was an old black dude over the summer. i said no, and he said, \'well, they way he sings, he should be!\' so, yeah, if you can just go ahead and get on that, jordan... lol!!

Tim\'s voice is peaceful, mellow, and quick and gnarly when need be.

underrated vocalist IMO
