I had never heard of the band until I was in San Fran this past summer watching Jet, and they opened. They were amazing live, and I stupidly took their sampler CD on the way out the door, thinking that it would be easy to find their album. Wrong!! It took nearly 7 months to get their CD, but it is now one of my most played CDs. Their music is something that is different enough to give your music collection a little kick, but easy enough to listen to that you can relax if thats the only CD you have in the car.

Ok, I may be biased. I saw the band live three times this summer, and was blown away each time.

This cd is mind blowing. It's a mix of rock and pop, with classical undertones. Electronic tinkering also comes into play. It's difficult to classify this cd, as it seems to break a lot of molds. Suffice it to say, it's got a lot of catchy hooks, with a bit of dirt thrown in. Favorite tracks of mine include: "Pocket" & "Green Cats Eye".

If you like this album, their other album "Lonerider" would also be a great addition to your cd colletion. (Check their site: theeveryones.com for that title, as Amazon doesn't seem to carry it.)

This album surprised me. When I went to the Jet concert, they were the warm up band--also from Australia. They were pretty good (especially for a warm up band), as were Sloan, so I bought their CD from the lead singer out at the merchandise stand. I brought it home and listened to it. Five times. That was in June, and I'm still listening to them. The style is rather off the beaten track, but it's quite excellent--catchy, upbeat (though the words are rather less so) with a diversity of sounds and styles that continues to surprise me. Although it isn't hard rock, or even classic rock, it seems more than pop and less than alternative--lazy rock, if you will. Highly recommended.
