Damn
Glad, And That's That!
(© 2003 Fachetzamerde
Music)
This NY rock group takes
its name from its attitude
toward living, and the
fact that the band is
not, as they say, "angry
rockers." And the
music proves the point.
While energetic and gritty
at times, their sound
maintains more of a pop
sheen to it, which perhaps
comes from maturity. That
said, though the first
song on the disc is a
peppy number, featuring
shimmering guitars and
evoking the Smashing Pumpkins.
Then their first single
"Flight Delay"
comes on, I am truly a
fan. The hooks are there
and the song pulls me
in. The number "Perfect
Fool" grabs me as
well. It builds nicely
and has a solid rhythm
section, which holds down
the fort. The band tackles
the softer side of music
with some jangly acoustic
guitar numbers, though
I think their strength
lies on the rock side.
"Lighten the Load"
is a mix of acoustic and
electric, and while pleasant,
it doesn't have the punch
or staying power of some
of the electric numbers.
