Editorial Reviews

A rowdy mix of radio-friendly rock, jangly ho-downs and epic freakouts, Birdmonster’s debut was recorded at breakneck speed in a Los Angeles studio with producer/ mixer Brad Cook (Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age), No Midnight captures the band’s urgency and spontaneity with exciting results. "We wanted to have every single note, everything that was played, have as much heart as possible," singer Peter Arcuni explains. At times blending Springsteen-style earnestness with driving guitars and healthy doses of snarl and twang, the 13 tracks span the gamut, show-case each member’s diverse influences and achieves what Arcuni, gui-tarist David Klein, bassist Justin Tenuto and drummer Zach Winter set out to accomplish.

4.0 out of 5 stars listen to birdmonster, December 8, 2006

Birdmonster is an independent band has been praised by press from the Performer to the SF Chronicle. No Midnight will make you feel good that you took the chance to listen to Birdmonster. Although they play indie rock, these guys don't overstep their bounds or take themselves too ridiculously seriously. The track sequencing is well-done, which keeps the pace of the album unrepetitive and entertaining. It seems only a matter of time before this band gets signed, and hopefully they make the right decisions.

1.0 out of 5 stars i've tried, but i just don't get it..., September 16, 2007

This review is from: No Midnight (Audio CD)

after hearing all the buzz generated in sf about them, i decided to check them out. i've seen these guys live several times, and given this album a thorough couple of run throughs, and i have to say....i just don't get it. the whole album is just generic emoish boy rock, the lyrics aren't anything special and the singing...not so great. i can say one good thing about their live show though, they seem to be having a lot of fun. all smiles and silly dance moves. it's nice to see that they're not taking themselves very seriously-especially with this album.
