The Band: Bravery? These fuckers think they're gods!

I've heard their music and it's totally everything else I've been hearing this past year like Franz Ferdinand, Killers (both good bands) but why attack Killers and the fathers of the latest music inspiration...DURAN DURAN (they share this title with U2, in my opinion)?! Simon LeBon's response was classic. We'll see if the Bravery is around in 20 years. If you go to stereogum.com you can listen to the swipes THe BRavery takes at the Killers and vice versa.

From stereogum.com:

The Bravery VS Duran Duran
SAM ENDICOTT: No artist likes to be compared to others. You always think you're special and unique and all that bullshit. But at least they are comparing us to good bands instead of shitty ones. The Duran Duran comparison is my least favorite, because I don't like that band at all.

Duran Duran's response? Invite them on tour!
SIMON LE BON: We are absolutely delighted to have The Bravery on board for the St Andrews show along with Daniel Bedingfield. Each act will make a unique musical contribution to the date and we are sure our fans will love the bill.
Whoops. It's probably safe to say Sam and Simon won't be sharing eyeliner backstage afterall. Haven't we learned anything from the Pavement/Pumpkins debacle of '94?

A couple days ago I was an extra in a photo shoot the Bravery did for Stuff Magazine. The stylist went all out. I have no idea who they are though. Just another of our recent "The" bands, I guess.

The
White Stripes
Killers
Hives
Vines
Strokes

Just one in a long line of buzzworthy "it" bands with no future.
