Faithless

Anyone tell me if they're any good?

I've heard their song "Mass Destruction" ("Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction!") a few times here and there and I LOVE it. Has a cool dance/reggae/trippy/electronic feel.

They worth investigating further? Parkey? Anyone else British? Give me the word.

I'd keep clear if I were you. They've had a couple of good tunes ('Mass Destruction' and 'Insomnia'), but the rest are pretty putrid.

Good live act but I'm not too crazy about them.

I see. :(

It's not too bad but very same-ish. Mind you some people would say that about many bands that I love :)

Have you been exploring dance/trance-ish music lately?

(saw another thread of yours about it)

Yeah, kinda. I always like to explore and expand my musical horizons. :)

Well, All Music Guide seems to be favorable towards them. I just don't know whether Parkey is just being a tough critic or not. ;)

If you want to check out some music of the electronic variety check out the following (if you haven't already):

Photek
Orbital
Chemical Brothers
Propellorheads
Lamb

All in my opinion of course ;)

not really worth it. they have like one good song on each album. and sister bliss'ss'ss's''sss' fingers are really annoying. i'd like to have a cup of tea with maxi jazz though. seems like an interesting fellow.

i bought no roots, and i like it a lot.

organic is not an adjective i use often, but it fits this album. grab it. you'll like it, if only a little.

the first few albums were pretty good, but then they fell off. d/l "dont leave", its one of their best songs, insomnias good too

rolo from faithless is didos brother, another useless bit of trivia.

[thegoodmrbrodie!]

when she sang on their first album, they paid her one curry.

beat that. :)

If you still fancy some Faithless, this best of has just come out in the UK (and probably over there); Forever Faithless (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0007YH6AQ/qid=1116607390/sr=8-1/ref=pd_ka_0/026-4910543-2220460).

You have been warned mind...

Yes. You might like one song and listen to more, but it's all pretty much the same. I say avoid.
