    Why do you call it "jazzy"? As a jazz musician, I seem to have a different definition of the word jazzy than most people. Is it the advanced harmony, the improvisation, etc? Or something else?

    i called it "jazzy" for lack of a better word. i didn't mean it directly as "jazz," although the drums in some of the tracks could be referred to as that..

    Yeah I could see that....the swinging feel. I just said something because another poster earlier in the thread made the same comment. After listening to them, I didn't really see that as having a jazzy sound, but that's just me.

    haha i understand. however their sound is described, i still think it's wonderful regardless. :]

    Yeah!

    My favourite song is The Lithium Stiffs...when I was in highschool and made anyone a mixed tape/CD, no matter what kind of music was on it, I ALWAYS put that song at the end as a "hidden song".
