The official **KEANE** thread

LifeIs4Living · 25-11-2003, 01:55 AM

The very first time I heard anything about this band was at a Travis gig I went to last Halloween. (Keane were the opening act) I didn’t put much thought into the opening act being any good (probably because I was only pretty much interested in seeing Travis at the time) but the second Tom Chaplin (the vocalist of Keane) started to sing, the crowd just stopped what they were doing, and directed all of their attention and energy to the stage. I soon realized that I was experiencing something very special when my friend and I looked at each other with our jaws to the ground. Keane’s music is strikingly expressive, and leaves you with a soothing notion that everything will be alright

If anyone happens to be interested in checking out this band, you can do so at www.keanemusic.com
Cheers!

Got tickets for the show in San Diego / Casbah.
Life is good. Cant wait til the album comes out (May 25th). These guys are my favorite band of the year. Try to get a hold of a song called "Bedshapen". brilliant.

Take a listen

Wow...lucky you!

I've heard of these guys, but never heard any of their music.

Keane is awesome and is definately my musical drug until Coldplay puts out the new album. It's nice to hear a band with substance.

cant check them out now... because Iam at work...what do they sound like?

Sweet One · 04-05-2004, 02:08 AM

hmmm..at first listen, they kinda sound like coldplay. But the lead singer sounds a lot like Thom Yorke.

Mimixxx · 04-05-2004, 02:10 AM

They are good, I like them. Their first single is ace, as is 'Everybody's Changing'

Use absolutely no guitars at all!

LifeIs4Living · 04-05-2004, 02:12 AM

I made a thread a very long time ago on Keane, I went to see Travis last halloween and Keane opened for them, they are absolutely BRILLIANT live, just..completely breath taking, "Bedshaped" was performed so beautifuly as was all the songs they played..just completely wonderful

idsadmin · 04-05-2004, 03:07 AM

In a recent set, they had a symphony backing up keane, not a guitar in sight, and I tell you it was one of the most moving concerts. especially the slower songs like "bedshapen".

Good stuff.

LifeIs4Living · 04-05-2004, 03:13 AM

they really are wonderful live..when i saw them no one had heard of them and everyone was just so still and my jaw just hit the floor, it was like magic

CityandColour · 04-05-2004, 04:22 AM

Who?

Kettercat · 04-05-2004, 04:18 PM

So if you have a minute why don't we go....

They're great, just a bit too soppy for me.

LifeIs4Living · 04-05-2004, 07:38 PM

^that's understandable..ohh and "Somewhere only we know" is mighty fine!
