5.0 out of 5 stars perfect pop with anguish, 21 Jul 2001

By	robbie.boyd@lineone.net (Kilmarnock Scotland) - See all my reviews

Dav ford has the most perfect voice, i seen them first in January when they were supporting King Adora. Easyworld completely out played them, and they have released a far better debut album as well. From the opening riff to the final foot stomp, you will be boucing off every wall in your house. Back to the vocals, he has a femine voice not unlike Jeff Buckley but it is higher pitch and has a slightly Brian Molkoish touch to it. This album should have been released when good bands were given recognition because these guys deserve it. They whole album seems to celebrate dysfunctional youth rather than drown it in sorrow and anguish. This was mainly recorded in the lead singers house so has a home-made punk quality. "try not to think" has a guitar piece that is similar to "you stole the sun from my heart". Other comparisons to the manic's and King adora can be made as these boys (and girl) are found of make-up and girls clothing but unlike KIng adora they have lyrics are deep and mean something. My favourite line at the moment is "star-crossed lovers take there lifes, every friday night." This album is intelligant, earth shattering and will show those who want a break from the mainstream they don't have to listen to it. The melodies and songs are so great that i can't believe NME gave them 7/10 and rocksound gave them 3.5/5. This band shouldn't break throught to the mainstream as the would be wasted on todays, slipknot are cool, youth. If you are looking for the best album likely to be released by a British band this year, buy this album

It is better than a thousand "nancy boys"

5.0 out of 5 stars my hundredweight head has sunk through the carpet!, 5 Jun 2003

By	William Goldfinch "sweetcornz" (Manhattan, NY) - See all my reviews

What an amazing album! I spend pretty much every day trying to find this kind of stuff and usually fail miserably. I stumbled across this and was not only persuaded to get it because it was rock/indie, highly recommended and not well known (most mainstream rock is so boring!) but because of the really cool cover! Boy was I glad I got it. Personal favourites are Lights Out, Hundredweight and Junkies but they're all such excellent tracks it would be hard to put the album down. It's not just the tunes which are good but the lyrics are (ok, in places) meaningful and it feels like these guys are playing for the music/meaning, not just for the money. It's just great indie, without the depression.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hooks you like a mainstream band , yet they're underground!, 18 Nov 2001

By A Customer

I didn't hear about Easyworld til I had the fortunate thing of seeing them live at The Reading Festival this year, and boy they didn't half stun me. The tune I distinctly remembered was "Junkies and Whores". When I bought the album, I was blown away. There are influences, vocally from Molko to Bellamy. The tunes are whistleable, and at times stray over to the likes of Blur, which are one of their influences. The guitar distortion is at times grungy and transports you back to early Smashing Pumpkins. There is an interesting mix of electronika and rock music, which Soulwax similarly use. Tracks to look out for are "Junkies and Whores" and "Hundredweight", but the whole record is amazing. If you're looking for a vibrant indie/rock band that doesn't talk about misery and death, but intelligent issues, then Easyworld is your band.
