5.0 out of 5 stars Passionate, pristine..., 1 Aug 2003

By	Mr. M. A. Cox (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The First Word Is the Hardest (Audio CD)

Saw these fellows supporting Oceansize and was most impressed: melody, emotion, my God, even real tunes! Waited avidly for their first release following their fortuitous and well-deserved plugging from Radio 1; Moyles in particular. Worth the wait? Definitely.

The title track is initially minimalistic with a simple but beautiful melody which mounts to a searing crescendo. Hear two vocalists hearts breaking before your very ears! Lush.

"Resolve" starts with a subdued piano line and the subtlest of vocals. It builds and builds and then BOOM a massive outro, (which somehow reminds me of Tears for Fears' one great song: "Head over Heels"). Lovely swooping bassline too.

"Too Cool to Shop" is a rocky up-tempo number with nicely bitter lyrics and some very bizarre stuttery ?guitar? noises.

So what do you get for your money? Gorgeous and perfectly controlled vocal harmonies, nicely-judged dynamics, achingly poignant melodies and bit of butt-kicking indie rock at the end.

Buy the single. See them live. Make them stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best unknown band around, 27 Jan 2006

By	Andrew Grant (STEVENAGE, Herts. United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

Saw this band at the Bar Academy last night, and they played this single. Superb. In fact the whole set was brilliant. Don't just take my word for it, go see for yourself

5.0 out of 5 stars It's about time!, 15 Jul 2003

By	That One Guy "You know, that one guy." (Ohio) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The First Word Is the Hardest (Audio CD)

I have obtained these three recordings from various parts of cyberspace as endorsements for the band Four Day Hombre, and all of them are excellent. Their style is notably loud, even the relatively slow song "Resolve", which has a great drum trance, superior musicianship, arrangement, and a loud, climactic ending. "Too Cool To Shop" has loud, imaginative, but nearly incomprehendable lyrics, but the superb guitar distortion, and remarkable sound effects leave the aforementioned forgotten. This is a great album with a headbanger-esque techno-rock style that is a must buy for any music lover.
