138th Street by The Walkmen sounds alot like Bob Dylan.

[MrBrau1]

Alot. In the good way.

 

[lmixristhebest]

The Walkmen are the best. I saw them play last October, and they totally blew me away. And I'm sure they'd site Dylan as an influence, especially that saloon piano sound.

And The Rat sound alot like Rod Stewart....

 

[MrBrau1]

No. The Rat doesn't sound like Stewart. But 138th sounds like it could be Dylan.

I'm trying to figure out whether to make some sort of "Positively 138th Street" joke here.

But seriously, what's the rest of the Walkmen's stuff like? I've only heard "We've Been Had" and "Wake Up" [I think...] and liked them both. Make more comparisons please. What's the best album to start off with?

And The Rat sound alot like Rod Stewart....

You've got a nerve to me makin' that comparison....

 

[Elvis Presley]

No. The Rat doesn't sound like Stewart. But 138th sounds like it could be Dylan.

It could, but it doesnt, and The Rat does sound like Stewart. The Faces era Stewart, which is a good thing.

It could, but it doesnt, and The Rat does sound like Stewart. The Faces era Stewart, which is a good thing.

Oh, the "good" Rod Stewart. I was thinkg "bad" 80's Rod Stewart. 138th Street sounds like Dylan.

 

[Elvis Presley]

Oh, the "good" Rod Stewart. I was thinkg "bad" 80's Rod Stewart. 138th Street sounds like Dylan.

Not good vs. bad, just different. As for Dylan, well they are probably going for that, cant say that I blame them, I just dont see it.
