AbsyntheMinded · 06-20-2011, 12:45 PM

Welcome to the first Stereophonics Appreciation Thread

" The Stereophonics are a Welsh rock band that formed in 1992 in the village of Cwmaman in Cynon Valley, Wales. The band currently comprises lead vocalist and guitarist Kelly Jones, bassist and backing vocalist Richard Jones, drummer Javier Weyler, guitarist and backing vocalist, Adam Zindani and touring member Tony Kirkham (keyboards), the group having originally also included Stuart Cable on drums.

Stereophonics have released seven studio albums, five of which have topped the UK Albums Chart. Their seventh, Keep Calm and Carry On, was released in November 2009 but did not make the Top 10. A successful compilation album was also released in November 2008 – Decade in the Sun charting at number two in the United Kingdom. The band is part of the Cardiff music scene. "- Source

First post! I thought I open a Stereophonics Appreciation Thread, since I couldn't find one.

Wildcat492002 · 06-20-2011, 04:10 PM

It surprises me that there hasn't been one before now. I absolutely love their music!

AbsyntheMinded · 06-21-2011, 12:52 AM

I was looking for it, but their music was mentioned in some threads... but I couldn't find a appreciation thread

What is your favourite Stereophonics song and would like to be added to the list?

It's so hard for me to pick a favorite song, because they are all fantastic. But I do love 'Rewind'.

Please add me to the list.

AbsyntheMinded · 06-22-2011, 07:12 AM

The lyrics of Rewind are fantastic

Yeey, you're the first

Wildcat492002 · 06-23-2011, 04:16 PM

Thanks for adding me.

So, what is your favorite song?

AbsyntheMinded · 06-24-2011, 04:05 AM

You're welcome

Maybe Tomorrow, that song really means a lot to me. That's the reason I wanted to learn to play the guitair a couple of years ago, so I could play & sing that song

And the lyrics of most of the songs are really amazing, Rewind is one of them too, Traffic...

Did you ever seen the Phonics live?

Wildcat492002 · 06-25-2011, 03:19 PM

I wish I could see them in concert. But there's little chance living in the US of that happening. The closest I come is listening to Live from Dakota.

AbsyntheMinded · 06-26-2011, 04:02 PM

That's a pity!

But Live in Dakota is an awesome DVD

I only have audio, but it's still awesome!

AbsyntheMinded · 06-28-2011, 03:07 AM

Oh that's cool too, they only wear leather jackets anyway

I always wanted to marry Kelly Jones when I was younger, they even asked me in our final yearbook: "I want to ask Sandy in 20 years... Are you already married to the singer of Stereophonics?"

Wildcat492002 · 06-28-2011, 04:31 PM

He is quite the hottie.

AbsyntheMinded · 06-28-2011, 05:41 PM

His voice

Wildcat492002 · 06-29-2011, 03:59 PM

I love how unique his voice is.
