bright eyes is pretty dope. anyone else listen him. alot of his tracks are recorded in his basement and his musicaly could possibly be put into the "emo' category but dont let that put u off.

Emo isn't a genre. And it's not "him" it's a "group".

The lead singer is Connor Oberst. A very talented song writer indeed. And has been often compared to Bob Dylan.

I'm not tryin to come off as a prick Frank, I'm just setting some things straight. And yes.. I do recommend Bright Eyes to anyone. The music may not be everyones cup of tea, but if you're looking for something new and different, give Bright Eyes a chance.

Peace

Bright Eyes = Conor Oberst.

He records with a band and tours with them, but he IS them, basically. On the Digital Ash in a Digital Urn, The Faint was his band in addition to opening act.

"First Day of My Life" is one of my favorite songs this year, but overall I'm not a big fan of Bright Eyes. I guess that's because I was paying attention when kids were calling him the next Dylan and it rubbed me the wrong way, because he's not even close.

I do think he's horribly overhyped and put up on a pedestal by a lot of people. I enjoy some of his songs, but his look-at-how-much-emotion-i-can-put-into-my-voice-without-actually-bursting-into-tears style of singing gets on my nerves after a while.

And he banged Winona Ryder, so fuck him for that, too.
