4.0 out of 5 stars Faulter "Darling Bud's of May", October 14, 2006

This review is from: Darling Buds of May (Audio CD)

Soundscapes of atmospheric rock. The opening track to Faulter's Darling Bud's of May will have new 30 Seconds to Mars fans standing on their seats screaming the anthemic chorus and swaying in slow unison to this melancholic burner. Not to sit on their hands for too long, Faulter kicks it into pop rock high gear for "I Think We Need to Talk" by channeling the spirit of Taking Back Sunday and Jimmy Eat World and the vaguely reminiscent Jimmy Eat Worldesque "October 16th." This may be one of the first discs where the promotional material that came with it actually nailed what this band sounded like. The tightness of their sound is only helped by the drumming of Josh Freese (A Perfect Circle/Nine Inch Nails) but to be honest, these kids can write a good song even if they're not leaving the box to do it. Don't sleep on them but don't take them for more than they are!
