Full of Surprises

By RegallyBlonde 9/22/2009 23:20:32

I first heard Phoenix on "Shallow Hal" not long after it came out on video and I gravitated to them right away.  I love how much their music has evolved - they are always full of surprises!  What an exciting band!

Pop goes France

Don't forget to check the band's blog, they offer free remixes on a weekly basis. The orchestral version of 1901 (Single) is stunning.

Good times, good stuff

I first heard about Phoenix from watching Entourage last season, a song titled "If I Ever Feel Better" on their United CD. I was really happy to see them make it more mainstream. So far, I've only heard 1901, but if that song is any indication on how the whole CD is, I am now a huge Phoenix fan.

I heard this band for the first time on KEXP last week. I love, love, love the song Fences. I'm excited to get to know the music more!

Impressive

By DotEd Live 12/10/2008 20:09:24

I was introduced to Phoenix while driving around Pasadena with my friend Jose Galvez (of Ozma, now playing with Nada Surf, and doing his own stuff) and was really impressed (I tweeted it so I'd remember: http://twitter.com/doted/status/842164466). Jose always has excellent music to listen to.   As a huge Daft Punk fan, I found Phoenix filled a void by providing a relaxing, listenable sound similar to Daft Punk, and you can listen to a whole album [or several] all day long without an awkward beat cropping up to disturb the mood.  Amazing rock/synth sound and upbeat fun songs.
