Like many others, this is a band that has stuck with me through every musical phase I have gone through, and I recently just found both the I-Empire and the We Don't Need To Whisper albums in my library, so I decided to both play the crap out of those albums, and create a thread for them. They're pretty much a fairly easy listening rock band, with some surprises thrown in here and there.

ANGELS & AIRWAVES

It's been a while since I first laid ears on this band, I had stumbled upon the "The Adventure" song on a friend's myspace,
and I kept going back because that song was absolutely incredible.
Has a long lead in, and is definitely worth the wait when the vocalist finally starts to sing.

I don't know what it is about this specific song off the I-Empire album,
but it's probably my favorite, and in my opinion, the best song off the album:



Love

Re: The Official Angels & Airwaves Thread

Hey Prime, I'm a fan of all the Blink side projects. My favorite was Box Car Racer but Angels and Airwaves is good as well. I have the first album and the digital version of Love in my collection. I never did buy I-Empire because when I streamed it just never caught my interest but after hearing your pick on here I'm definitely interested in giving it another try. The LOVE album is my favorite by them thus far and I'll buy that when it's released. It's pretty epic and tells a story!

Re: The Official Angels & Airwaves Thread

I'll be looking into picking up the LOVE album. Haven't even checked out a single song off the album yet. But I think I should try to get it and give it a good listen. We Don't Need To Whisper and I-Empire are two phenomenal albums, so it wouldn't surprise me if LOVE & LOVE II are just as good if not better.

I've heard that first song before. Not sure where. Might have been a television ad or intro to something.

I like it.

From the I-Empire release


And when I wake, I'm right here by your side
To feel your heart beat in and out of time

Re: The Official Angels & Airwaves Thread

Well, by fluke Prime, I have I-Empire! :heheh: The music club I was part of which was awesome BTW ($6.99 no shipping every month) shut down but apparently is sending me my monthly selection until it closes sent this to me. I had it on my queue but it must have got bumped up due to people buying the other selections. Anyway, I'll let you know how it is! :grinthumb

Angels & Airwaves - Sirens



There's a weakness at the window
Place my footprints in the dark room
There's lonely voices like a scarecrow
In the hallway like a lost ghost

In the bedroom I see a shadow
From the moon with light from a candle
On a bed frame lies a girl
Her reflection in the mirror

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I like your eyes wide
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I'm knocking at your backdoor

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Nervous like a knife fight
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for

I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean

I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with me

It's a dark night on the West Coast
Then a soft breeze as the sun rose
Then the phone rang like a gunshot
Like a siren on the beach rock

There's a message at the river
A certain package here to deliver
When the day breaks after nightfall
I will be there you know I will

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I like your eyes wide
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I'm knocking at your backdoor

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Nervous like a knife fight
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for

I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean

I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with me

I can hear you breathe I'm feeling the shake
And the sound of my heartbeat can't let go
Do you know I'm feeling the pain of my first love?
I let it go can't let go

I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean

I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I do this from time to time
Where I wanna taste you as you breathe

I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean

I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with me
