I've been liking them for a while and going to buy some of their stuff pretty soon. Love the song bellow even if its a bob dylan cover. Just think they are so original and amazing really lol. Let me know whay you think. Itd probably not to the taste of most of the people on here.

Any of their stuff would be a good purchase. Definitely one of my favorite bands, their musical abilities are just amazing.

nooooooooo oh my god i hate dmb. dave matthews is HUGE in my area, hes even stated in interviews that he hates playing in connecticut because even though we have his biggest and most loyal fans, his concerts here are just huge parties where bros with backwards visors get beyond drunk, get into fistfights and start fires. its not even him and his music per se (although i dont like his music and from what i understand the dude's a *****), its really just what he represents. all the people i knew from high school who liked dmb, i hated.
but again, just my experience.

You could say that about most bands. People listen to certain bands just because the singer looks good or this and that. For me I listen to it because of the music. I mean you here a lot of bands, signers and stuff that apparently are up themselves, so i just listen to the music and not the person

you're exactly right dude! im not telling you not to listen to dave matthews, if you like him that's cool listen to him all you want. even i can think of a few musicians i love who arent known as the nicest people. but idk if you live in the uk, but his fanbase there im assuming is much different than here in the u.s. all fans of dmb here are bros (not sure if you've ever seen the bro rape (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEJ5bfuBehs) video) which are one of the lowest forms of human. so again its not really dmb itself i hate, although i do, its just the natural ice drinking, popped-collar wearing loud and obnoxious idiots associated with him. like i think nickleback is an even worse band, but they dont bother me as much since their fanbase is just misinformed about what good music is, and arent necessarily bad people. but i havent met a dmb fan i didnt want to give a swift kick in the nuts to.
i quite like that song you posted, is a bit slow though and perhaps im just notin the mood. but it isnt that bad, dont think id spend money on it though

Yeah I'm from the UK. With all bands you get sterotypical stuff - for example in the UK there are chavs, which listen to most MC and rave stuff, but I know people would be classed as metal people who listen to some of it - its just how you see someone. I got to know them via my lecturer at Uni and he's a kind of guy who thinks he's all cool and so on lol - said that he was supprised how when he went to concerts it was full of young people not many his age, not many down here know about it really.

oh yeah, i hate to give into the stereotyping, i usually dont but in the case the correlation is stunningly clear. and really it's not dave matthew's fault i hate him so much. maybe if i lived in the UK i'd love him hahaha. for context, my own brother is a dmb listening bro, and i sometimes i do wanna kick him in the nuts but i figured it wouldnt be worth it haha.

Think about the DMB fanbase in USA as the Pendulum fanbase in the UK.
(if you're a pendulum fan, sorry, I hate you)
