Thought I'd write a little bit about an unsigned band I came across this week, they've got an album out, free download from their website. I suppose this is some kind of review.....read more.
Now I know in the past I've given out about bands giving away their music, and churning out albums before they are ready, so I'm just going to look at the album on it's merits, and leave my opinion on the strategy at the door.
Opening with Pulse, the track you can download below, it's got echoes of New Adventures In Hi-Fi era REM, and Kings Of Leon, with an odd spoken word section towards the end, it's a promising introduction. The album then steps up a gear with Something Dangerous, which has a real bite, and Blacklist which is sounds a bit lost and desperate, in a good descriptive way, not like a sad old man.
The next tracks called Gordon, and I'm worried, it's not about Gordon Brown is it? It could be? I'm always shit at interpreting lyrics, unless it's rap, though that's usually pretty obvious, so this could very well be a pseudo-political effort. It's rather good, ebbs and flows, and I have to say I'm enjoying the album, a lot more than I thought.
I'm going to stop it there though, as I'm not really one for reviews. If you like what you have heard so far, download the rest of the album yourself. Ha!! This could be the first review in history of "journalism" where the writer actually just gave up, mid-album, but if I tell you the whole story, you won't bother, will you. See, method to the madness.
