4.0 out of 5 stars Another solid release from NY's Madder Rose, August 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Hello June Fool (Audio CD)

Madder Rose is one of thoese rare bands that seems to be both mature and secure in their music and disinterested in rock stardom. Not that I blame them given the current state of rock, but Mary Lorson (vocals) and Billy Cote (guitar, vocals) have both the musical and songwriting skill to churn out radio-friendly albums that would no doubt get some air-time and some recognition.

Yet they seem to want to stick with their cult status, and continue to turn out record after record of beautiful, stark pop-rock. Maybe their unwilling to compromise their music. Maybe their happy playing clubs, entertaining their cadre of fans while occasionally making new ones. No matter the reason, from 1993's Bring it Down to 1999's new release Hello June Fool, Madder Rose plays what they love, and their skill has grown immensely over their 4 LP's and scattered EP/singles.

If you want great music without the hype or the pretention of made-for-radio hits, take a peek at Hello, June Fool. You wont be disappointed.

Best Tracks: #3 (Hotel) and #5 (Hello, June Fool)

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, excellent record!, September 29, 1999

Their best album yet, with radio friendliness and the summertime feel that when listened to again will come back to remind you of these times for the rest of your life. "Overflow" should be all over the radio and "Hotel" is a powerful statement of dark feelings. Artisic, soulful, and very well-crafted. Madder Rose individually and as a band are at their best.

The music of Madder Rose is as good as any of thier contempories. They were way ahead of their time. The music is as fresh today as when it was released.
