The Bravery Edit Meaning

1.

A kickass band that does what some people would call "dance punk", also, they have almost a sorta Eighties sound to them.

Hey, aren't the bravery coming to San Francisco?

2.

A band that includes synths in it. Good band.

Kid 1: Heard of the bravery kid 2?

Kid 2: Yeah, but they're hooking up with mtv..

Kid 1: Sigh.

3.

Post-punk for MTV kiddies. A fake poser band that tries to use 80's post-punk elements in their music but fail miserably.

They also have their own dress code, which makes them even more fake.

Stick to the real post-punk bands: Joy Division, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Boys Next Door/The Birthday Party, B-Movie, The Cure, The Fall, Echo & The Bunnymen, Bauhaus, Gang of Four, Mission of Burma, The Church, Orange Juice etc.

I doubt these guys in "The Bravery" have even heard of half of those bands, and yet they claim to be influenced by Post-Punk.

They're really just another one of those Joy Division clones you hear now days. Like She Wants Revenge, for example.

(Sorry to be such a musical elitist douchebag, but these guys are fake as hell. Maybe if they had any real talent and originality and would quit stealing a sound and image, I'd listen to them.)

The only positive thing about this band is the band name. Atleast that makes it interesting for someone who hasn't heard them before.

The Bravery are a watered down, mediocre 21st century post-punk wannabe band. Stick with the real stuff.

4.

A poser-esque band from New York that is capitalizing on the success of synth-driven bands such as The Killers. The band is headed by Sam Endicott, who likes to talk badly about other bands (examples: The Killers and Duran Duran) and promote his hardcore image. However, in spite of all of that, their music is still quite good so they are not despised by everyone in the music community. Good for them.
