Lumen

I really like the band Lumen. However, among the "nonconformists," there's an opinion that the band's music is "trashy, pop, and generally awful."
Have you heard that?

Don't know, it's okay, but not great, I'd give it a three.

Good band, I listen to them from time to time. A long time ago, a friend introduced me to Lumen ;)

Oh, I haven't even heard of such a group... ((
P.S.: Can you give me a link where I can download it, so I can check it out?

What genre does Lumen belong to? Does it have a lead singer? :D

Is there a lead singer there?

You're only interested in whether there's a lead singer... ;)

Well, it's not mandatory :) Just in case Kobzon is singing there! =-O Although, no... I already checked online – it's some guy named Jay Lumen.

I came across Lumen's disc... I downloaded all the albums (except for 3 songs because of a glitch... well, Lok might share them later), but I haven't listened to them yet... except for the ones Lok shared before, and I liked "Friends" and "Cosmonaut" from those... the first one is calm and has good lyrics, and the second one is punk and fun :)
When I have time, I'll listen to the rest... maybe I'll like something else too.

Vis, people probably consider them a pop group because many people listen to them (but not real rockers, but those who listen to a lot of different music), maybe that's why they say it's pop... and maybe it's because of the music (the ease of playing their songs)... or maybe most people listen to foreign bands and don't care, and among those who listen to Russian rock, most listen to metal and so on (and mostly older bands), so for them, this is nothing special... there are many versions...

P.S. Why write in a topic about which you know nothing? :\ .. (I'll delete the off-topic posts later)

I don't really like it, as I'm not a fan of this kind of music. However, I must admit that they play very well within their style.

I liked the song "Fuck off". A friend downloaded it for me. Now I listen to it often.

a group that plays "trashy pop music and is generally awful."
Have you heard them?

I'd rather not say... I don't like such unserious music...

I haven't listened to much, but what I heard, I liked. :) I'll note the song "Nebesa" for myself :smile04: (although I have all the albums on my hard drive, I need to find some time to listen to them:))

I don't like this kind of unserious music...

What do you mean by serious music? I'm hearing about the division of music into serious and unserious for the first time :smile04:

If there is no "Post" prefix and the music is harmonious, accurate, and beautiful, then it is not music at all.

Great band, I liked both the music and the lyrics. I listen to them often now; they appeared on my playlist quite recently, but they've already earned my appreciation (although, anything that doesn't deserve my respect is immediately removed).
As for the fact that some people consider it "rubbish and pop music," that's a matter of taste (that's what "rubbish" is all about), and I personally don't consider Lumen to be pop music...

Well, whether something is "rubbish and pop" is a matter of taste, but I personally don't consider Lumen to be pop...

In general, the band is quite popular in Russia right now, if we interpret the word "pop" in that sense. But in terms of its musical style, the band is definitely far from being pop. *Remembers one of his favorite songs by the band, "While You Were Sleeping"*:rolleyes:
