Simple and efective rock and roll in the vein of Foo Fighters is what we have here. A lot of punk rock influences are shown here, for example on "Whatever Reason". What this guys have is a lot of pop sensibility because all the songs stick inmediately to your ear through those hooky melodies and the way the songs are created: in the style verse-verse-chorus-verse that is so friendly to the ear. Those looking for experimentation and dark atmospheres will not find them here. But if you like happy music and easy to listen songs will be delighted. Favorite tracks: "No Clue", "New Age Crap" and "Girlfriend". Contact: www.suburban.nl or info@suburban.nl
