I learned about this band from Denmark through the English movie "Cashback" (great movie too). The first song playing at the end credits, "She", is an extra track included in this CD, the last album from Great Avenue. I loved this album and the additional tracks. Beautiful music, great singing and awesome guitar work. Just to give you an idea of how they sound like, imagine something in between Coldplay and U2, though not exactly; they have their own original style. Grand Avenue is one of the nicest bands I've heard lately and it's a pleasant surprise to see what's up in the Danish rock scene.

Grand Avenue is your ticket back to some excitement. The Outside is full of catchy and bright tunes, this record doesn't slow down all that much compared to Viva La Vida, so I like it much better. Can't deny the vocal similarity to Coldplay, but I wouldn't blame these guys.

I bought this cd after hearing the song 'She' featured in the fantastic movie Cashback. Didn't like any of the other songs as they lack passion. I would recommend just paying 99 cents for the one song but it is not on itunes nor is it available as an mp3 on amazon.

I love danish rock. If you are into Grand Avenue, you might also like Kashmir and the old stuff of Swan Lee.
Highly recommended.
