Subject: RE: Agnostic Mountain Gospel Choir
I've formed my first opinions of Tanglefoot from watching a few Youtube videos. You've formed yours of the Agnostics similarly. Heigh ho.
I think all the things you like are present with the Agnostics, apart, perhaps, from the clarity (and I mentioned in my horrendous generalisation earlier that 'purity of tone' is highly prized here). But, you see, I think that that rough-edged buzz is partly what makes The Agnostics' sound so organic, while Tanglefoot sound like a bunch of good musicians lacking in charisma, originality or sense that they really cohere beyond being able to play in time and harmony with each other.
