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

Trippy, Unique, Rocking Album

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 voice, and it is really needed at a time when every freakin...

refreshing masterpiece

A bit more natural than Welcome to the north and a more constant atmosphere too. Refreshing, a brilliant mix of rock of electric influencing. Although not completely comparable in style, the resulting sound reminds me in some way of Kasabian.

Much better than their follow-up "Welcome To The North" - this is more creative and interesting - 4.5 stars

The Music's second album "Welcome To The North" was a catchy-yet seemingly uninspired album. Sure the first 5 songs were really catchy, but they kind've felt derivate, too. "The Music", however, feels original, creative and is most certainly interesting to listen to. There's lesser emphasis on...

Worthy of being called "THE MUSIC!"

--A ROCK BAND...WITH A TOUCH OF ACID!!!This CD is so full of energy and feeling. It's kinda of like hearing a more electronic, paced-up U2 with Led Zeppellin's Robert Plant...sort of. It's really quite unique... The drumming is so good, and are the spiraling guitar rifs mixed with the...

Addition

If I was to compare it to anyone, I'd give it a comparison to Jane's Addiction. Not just because of the vocal stylings, they have that 'sonic' feel, for lack of a better term. Wish they got more respect than those flash in the pan pans too, but hey at least I get to see them in a small venue...

Just Super

I can tell honestly, that i haven't heard, through some years, nothing better than this staff. This staff just rocks. Drums, vocals and guitars are sensational. Buy this CD and you don't have to regret.
