5.0 out of 5 stars Everyhting Glows Beautifully, November 7, 2000

By	David Shaw "David Shaw" (New York City) - See all my reviews

Once again, D.A.D proves to be one of the most creative and inspiring hard rock bands around. It's a crying shame that the band never caught on in the U.S. because, as this new CD proves, this band posesses so much awesome originality. Every song is laced with great hooks, gruff vocals, and crunchy yet melodic guitars . . . just what this band has been doing since they became the pride of Denmanrk some 20 years ago. Pick up Everything Glows. It's well worth it!

4.0 out of 5 stars D.A.D are back, October 3, 2000

By	Malcolm Mikkelsen (Tjaereborg Denmark) - See all my reviews

D.A.D are back - 3 yaers after their huge commercial success 'Simpatico' many things have changed, the most influentiel change however has been a new drummer. The more alternative/slow rock that was symptomatic for 'simpatico' has been dumped in favor of raw rock and roll. Songs like 'Everything Glows' and 'nineteenhundredandyesterday' are true to the bands original rock sound. One might say that D.A.D have looked back in it's past to rediscover the spark that made them the greatest rock band to spring from Denmark ever.

4.0 out of 5 stars A rousing call to arms for the faithful, May 12, 2006

By	Paul Lawrence "'EJL'" (Australia) - See all my reviews

This is a good album that DAD have produced here. It is more immediate and upbeat than some of their recent output and really captures the spark they had when they were writing outright rock albums like No Fuel Left for the Pilgrims.

It's hard to pick highlights given that the album hangs together as a whole so well. Ninteenhundredandyesterday and Everything Glows are excellent rockers as are Road Below Me. The humour is here as well which is just awesome, permeating so many of their tracks with that extra spark that makes you want to play it again. Kiss Between the Legs is the one track where they don't wait for you to hear the lyrics to hear their humour, as soon as you see the title you know it's gonna be fun.

The introspective numbers are here as well. A couple of them, for my mind As Common As, don't actually work. But others here do such as Candybar which is a plaintive (almost) ballad.

The upbeat delivery and modern production have certainly gotten the DAD machine out of the bog it was starting to get stuck in. This isn't a bad album to pick up for anybody who knew these guys years ago and is wondering what on earth they've been doing since.
