Product Description

CD Description
The reassembled Sunny Day Real Estate, minus original bassist Nate Mendel (departed for Foo Fighters), has quieted downa notch since its eponymous 1995 album, but the group hasn't compromised its characteristic intensity. HOW IT FEELS is a dark and haunting album that creates an unforgettable moodby layering angry, powerful guitar chords and Jeremy Enigk's yearning vocals against a glowing musical background. Longing and desire permeate the lovely, restrained "Every Shining Time You Arrive", and the frustration is palpable on "How it Feels to Be Something On". Their third album takes Sunny Day Real Estate's typical darkness and anxiety and adds a big helping of maturity and restraint, with a result that willplease both fans and neophytes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent album, they can do no wrong., 16 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Oh my god they've done it again, another classic packed with trademark emotional rock songs but this time without Nate Mendel on bass. The album is their first after splitting in 1995. It is immediately apparent on opener "Pillars" that they have lost none of the sparkle and genius for hooks and melody that made 1994's debut "Diary" such a seminal piece. As the album progresses it becomes clear that, although a little lighter, Sunny Day now have a deeper and more complex sound (Two Promises and How it feels... in particular) and Enigks vocals are still hauntingly beautiful. Buy this and buy it now (along with the back catalogue).

5.0 out of 5 stars As Close To Perfection..., 3 May 2007
By Anthony Nation (Liverpool UK) - See all my reviews
This is by far, my all time favourite album. I know that's a bold statement but for me, there's no contest. I first heard it 7 years ago, and it still gets played 3 times a week at least. And it never once gets boring. This is one of those rare beasts of an album where from beginning to end, it has you hooked. It seems that each song has been thought out to follow/compliment the one before and to set up the one that will follow. Everytime you listen to it, you hear something new. You'll love one song and you'll be convinced that that is your favourite. Then the next time you listen to it, you'll have changed your mind. There are no lulls or downtime in this album. Damn near perfection from the opening riff of "Pillars" right through to the faraway, quietning, distorted drum beat that bring "The Days Were Golden" and the album to an end.

Overall, "How It Feels To Be Something On" if given the chance (it will take a few listens-my suggestion is to read a book while it's on in the background or put it on when you go to bed) will pleasantly surprise and enthrall you at the same time. This album, and the band themselves, are one of music's best kept secrets. So good in fact, you want to keep it to yourself.
