The Nine Days single 'Absolutely(Story of a Girl)' is getting U.K. radio airplay! Lots of it! Could this be the start of the new revolution? Here's hoping!

I'd describe Tsar as 'Jellyfish on speed'! (If you know what Jellyfish sound like, that is!!)

Nine days as sfk kurt says is more in the MATCHBOX 20 mould with a touch of BARENAKED LADIES and even BRYAN ADAMS!

NEVE I love the most and remind me of a rockier REMBRANDTS at times because they use a lot of dual harmonies, a bit like CROWDED HOUSE but please don't let these comparisons put you off.

Most of the bands have sound samples available at their sites. Try using the 'Ultimate Band List' site at www.ubl.com It's the best site for searching for general band sites and will list all the official and unofficial sites for each band.

Check them out. There's a lot of good music coming out at the moment and at last it's exciting to be into rock again.

I was wondering what the entire Nine Days cd sounds like...I really like the song on the radio. Does it sound like Lit, SR-71, Marvelous 3 and Mars Electric, or something different. Also, is TSAR in that same category, or again, different, and lastly, what style of music is Neve and who can they be compared to?


Ace,

-Nine Days is probably more in line with Matchbox Twenty

-Tsar is certainly in the M3, SR-71, etc catagory and may be the best of the bunch next to Neve, who also fits nicely into this catagory.

OK they don't look like Firehouse circa 1990, and the singer doesn't contort


Right here is where I think what puts off so many old school melodic rock fans...its not the music at all but rather that these guys dont have big poofy hair, cause to these ears bands like SR-71, Tsar, Neve and the like are not all that far removed from Poison or Cheap Trick or etc.]]> sfk kurt NoticeboardWed, 13 Sep 2000 00:28:09 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,5631,5668#msg-5668 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,5631,5668#msg-5668OK they don't look like Firehouse circa 1990, and the singer doesn't contort himself into spasms to hit high 'c' at every available opportunity, but does that really matter when the songs are so well-written, and executed?!

It was even partly recorded in Sheffield for ***ks sake! A&R by David Bendeth, who 'discovered' Big House I seem to recall. 'Last Moon On The Moon' is fantastic. Loved the ad-libbed line about one armed astronauts at the end. Highly amusing!

It's got a UK release date of 18th Sept. (That's next Monday) and the THREE DOORS DOWN album is also soon to be released over here.
I just hope that NEVE (after their CLASSIC ROCK review) and TSAR get UK releases also. TSAR is just AWESOME and most definately relevant to readers of this board.

Wake up y'all!!]]> Surfpunk NoticeboardTue, 12 Sep 2000 04:33:11 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,5631,5631#msg-5631 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,5631,5631#msg-5631
