This review is from: She's My Everything Pt.1 (Audio CD)

God almighty, if there's one thing The Curmudgeon can't STAND it's fake music. Now, hear me out, this isn't some poe-faced snobbery against all pop music. For me, you have to BELIEVE the music you're hearing. Even if it's sung by some manufactured pop puppet they have to sing it like they mean it, otherwise it's worthless. The same goes for the likes of Christina Aguilera when she attempts to be "down" with the street kids, or when Madonna attempted to rap. We don't believe it for a second. Agree with me on that? Good. Now let's get to these idiots.

Freefaller are a bunch of identikit pop clones pushed together to make what twelve year old girls think is a "rock band". So they wear ripped T-shirts, talk about skating and bounce around while playing guitar, all in the most safe, inoffensive way of course. Gotta appeal to those pre-pubescants, remember?

Double A-side time, so that means two ultra weak songs for the price of one... hold on - check that second track. Oh dear - a cover of Green Day's "Basket Case"? So you can guess what THAT means - the song stripped of any edge it had whatsoever as the non-threatening singer with the boyband haircut attempts to sing the one Green Day song NOT from "American Idiot" that his simple minded, easily pleased fanbase will have actually heard of.

Of course, anyone with half a clue won't buy into it for a second. After Avril Lavigne (manufactured as well, but pop music that you can suspense belief enough to enjoy) the charts are full of these kinds of bands. A few years ago the exact same people would have been wearing matching tops and doing dance routines to pop tunes. That's out of style, so Mr Record Executive gets the puppets to dress "rawk" and ponce around on stage with guitars. Sickening.

Thankfully, this single (and the last) bombed, so we can look forward to this band being dropped by their record label. If they were a REAL band, this wouldn't happen, but as they were formed to make money by people who have NO interest in what this "band" says or does, it will. We can, at least, be thankful for that.

Farewell, Freefaller - we hardly knew ye. And didn't much care for ye, either.
