ciwwaf isnt a horrible band, theyre just the mainstream scene. if you listen to their music open mindedly, you'll probably find your foot tapping. =D

This band is probably in a similar category to PATD for me, as in I'll maybe listen to their singles once in a while but there isn't too much to make me listen to either of their albums. Not totally bad (coming from a fan of the genre), but certainly not ''good''.

After listening to some Death Cab For Cutie, I quickly decided to ignore all bands with some form of the word "cute" in their name.



I'm going to listen to these guys though. My friend just keeps pestering me.

i don't understand how anybody can like this bandThis Message Edited On 10.08.07

^It's called beer.

Grow up. Slamming this band is more cliche amongst high school and college age boys who are insecure in their masculinity than it is cliche for little girls to like them. This band is good.

^yes, exactly. so comments such as "i dont understand how anyone can like this band" are ridiculous.

So you think Fall Out Boy and Panic at the Disco were awful 12-old-teenagers-aimed pop-"punk" bands? This is the real deal. Just take a look at the name. Cute Is What We Aim For. That's what awaits you in this 40 minute piece of shit.

Band makes me want to bang my head against a wall. Review is good though.

I honestly don't understand what all the hate against this band is for. If you really listened you would realize that the capacity of human intelligence seems to limit the capabilities to expand upon any possible creative aptitudes. Indeed, if one cannot even notice the facets that the ingenuities around him are comprised of, how can he be expected to fashion a beast of his own? This inveterate sense of constraint is a great blow to the veracity of mankind’s abilities. It restrains us and holds our minds to the ground below, averting any possibility of rising above ourselves to something greater; something not fathomed by the conventional mind. This concept of seeking to go beyond one’s self, known as “transcendence”, is essentially a gateway to unlocking pieces of ourselves that can lead to some of the most elaborate and significant creations of our world. For many, this quest to transcend and form creations that were once considered unthinkable and overwhelming consumes life. Certainly it is rare to find such people, but when they are found, creative barriers are destroyed.

dude

Tbh I really like these guys, and I really like this album too.



I don't understand why so many people hate CIWWAF when there are so many worse bands around.



Also, just to clarify, I read in a magazine, during an interview with Shaant (Lead Singer), that they came up with the name during a phone call. They weren't sure what they wanted to call the band, and they were just throwing ideas around. Someone said something like, "We need something cute. Cute is what we aim for." They all liked the name, so they stuck with that.

and shit is wot we end up with amirite

Personally, I think that Cute is What we Aim For has a sound that very few other bands have. I don't see the FOB connections at all. CIWWAF seems to mostly be different from other sounds while writing witty lyrics, which only improved on their second album, "Rotation".
