The Music
Leeds, England's much-touted the Music signal their intentions with the opening track of their debut. "The Dance"'s swirling psych-rock intro, Beatle-esque "yeah yeah yeah," crashing guitars, and dub effects, topped by Robert Harvey's vocals, tell one and all that this bunch is not about subtlety. The Music gives a sideways nod to the Stone Roses' Second Coming, but it is mainly a wild mix of Led Zeppelin blues metal and the stadium end of 1980s alt-rock. The lyrics are little more than excuses for Harvey to howl and wail, but the constant twin-guitar work of Harvey and Adam Nutter keep you enthralled by its sheer recklessness. It's a breath of fresh air to hear a British indie band that's unafraid to rock. --Garry Mulholland more

I got into The Music through their second album, Welcome To The North (which is incredible), and only then did I get this album. The tunes are not quite as catchy as on WTTN, but they are really awesome. The singer Rob has such an insane...

- Music to mine ears
Imagine Led Zeppelin, minus the fantastical lyrics, with a dash of the Stone Roses in their prime. Then turn up the volume. The Music's self-titled album is far from brilliant, but it's an entertaining rock debut. It makes up in energy...

- Cold turkey....
Add one part lead singer infatuated with Robert Plant-ish caterwauling, two parts excruciatingly long instrumental noodling, add a dash of undercooked prog-rock elements, and you've got the melodic mularkey that is The Music...
