Following in the footsteps of Ocean Colour Sceen, the Inertnational Nosie Conspiray and many other The Electric Soft Parade made a name for them selves by sticking 3 random words together, or so it would seem...They were actually called The Soft Parade, but someone had that name so they stuck Electric at the begining and voila, you have a band name. Another fact about them is that the drummer writes most of the lyrics, original.
The debut album from the White brothers earned them a lot of hype in early 2002, but saddly like many others don't quiet live up to it. Don't get me wrong, it's a good album, but just not as good as it was made out to be. If this album had been something I picked up with out hearing much about them then I would have thought it was great, but it just leaves you with a 'is that it' feeling at the end.
However, there are some great tracks on it and their indie pop sound could make it's way in to the charts. I also think that they will be a big band in a few albums times as long as they keep away from the Gallagher's botherly tenstion. They've said that they want to make music that will change the world, but they haven't got their yet. Sentements I think I'd agree with.
I think this is an album that you should buy, but maybe keep the recipt.
