This review is from: It's Too Late (Audio CD)

Eloquent emotive ballad rock at its most stirringly divine. And all the result of the throws of a seemingly haunting and lurid, creative output by this highly mature prodigously talented NZ trio. The brothers Hume, aged 20, 18, and 16 respectively coalesce into a shimmering unfifed harmonic force with this release, "It's too late".

With their idyllic rural NZ upbringing in a small hamlet known as Fielding, they have managed to avoid being squelched by the vice that modernity has done to so many of the current crop of modern recording artist to have their works becometh a resultant rind ridden pulp, with their emergence from a landscape one might easily imagine to be inhabited by Lilliputians. Seemingly, perhaps waltzing into the inner reaches of these lads, and filling them with something very special and earthily ethereal that an upbringing in the calamitous hive of urbanity may very well have curtailed. And I feel compelled to show my gratitude in saying, thanks so very much to heavens for that. For the birth of a uniquely, potentially internationally acclaimed sound as a result of this magnanimously gifted trio's creaitve impulses, and the things that have fuelled, may have not otherwise arisen into actuality.

Evermore could be anything, and when perusing there audio output one realises that not only could they be anything. But that they are in my opinion, even at this embryonic point of their career anything, and everything that can be so wonderful about this form of music. On this particular snippet from their debut opus 'Dreams', pulsating keyboards and rolling drums march into ones ears with a frenetic certainty, and continue on their swift travels into the heart strumming all kinds of chords in the self throught the duration of the song. And as vocalist Peter Hume states "It's too late, to let all your feelings show", "Ride on, until the night is swept away" at the exultantly climactic closing to the song with the ecstatic apotheosis inducing emotional vocal intensity reminsicent of many modern rock greats such as Bono, Jeff Buckley, Billy Corgen, and Thomas Yorke, and a host of others, one begins to feel any parts of the self that are clinging onto something very hindersome almost relinquished. And resoundingly left behind.

A carthatic effort by both artist, and listener is certainly a given with this ornate vignette, which offers a great opportunity for a first time listener to gain insight into one of the truest emerging talents in modern rock circles that may very well certainly have you have you "Ride on, until early moring sun" as though aloft on a magical carpet ride into the celestial reaches of the ether, awaft in a dreamlike state. A non R.E.M dream to savour. If you like emotive melodic ballad rock,then sampling some of NZ's freshest audible delights Evermore could well appease your desire for such vibrations in your vicinity for the time being, and in my humble opinion, would be well worth your while. And if you happen to develop an even remotely strong interest for their musical output as I, then there is a good chance that you will become an avid listener of Evermore forevermore! If you are a musical love, the I exhort you too explore this treasure while you have a chance, before "It's too late" :)

4.0 out of 5 stars A Crowded House re-live!, September 10, 2004

This review is from: It's Too Late (Audio CD)

I'm impressed by this New Zealand bunch of Crowded House-inspired musicians. Catchy, soothing, and most important of all, smooth vocals, this band has potential to become another legendary Kiwi band. This song really opens the door for a new generation of emo/pop rock. If you're a fan of the likes of Starsailors, Lifehouse, Crowded House, and other soft, harmonic bands, then this band will definitely be part of your future collection.
