4.0 out of 5 stars "Black Tie, Right Noise", June 21, 2005

For a debut EP, Black Tie Dynasty sure have stated their mission: to conquer all territories with their 80's alternative sound. Yes I know every second band are sounding like Joy Division, early U2 and Echo and the Bunnymen these days, but BTD are different. The sound may share some similarities but there is much more to them then that.


Chiming melodies scatter themselves across the record's thirty minutes. Add a groovy bass and stadium-sized choruses and you have a band that shows potential, and boy these guys have tons of it.
Like I said before this is an excellent debut release and if this is a first step for a band as good as this then I'm sure there will be giant footsteps to follow!

I have to say that Black Tie Dynasty are a solid new act with great potential. This ep is a stellar start to what might be a steady climb to the top. Sure bands such as The Killers and Franz Ferdinand are making waves with the 80's dance grooves, but one thing that makes Black Tie stand out is the fact that the songs have soul. Cory Watson is a great lyricist. His lyrics matched with great music puts Black Tie on the darker side with just a hint of light. I can sit and listen to the entire 6 song ep and just lose myself. I have had the opportunity to see them live several times and let me just say that they have the whole package. The band is currently working on a full length album and the songs that are gonna be on it are incredible. With a little press and some prime time radio play we could just see the band take flight. If you want a great album that will keep you moving....this is it! Just check the band's myspace profile and see the comments the fans have been leaving.

Black Tie Dynasty perfectly embrace the sounds of bands such as Joy Division, The Cure and Echo and the Bunnymen, catching the post punk wave that exploded in the 80's and updating it to make it relevant in today's world. Smooth and drifting soundscapes flash across the songs, the melodies hint towards a Britpop groove with a solid American Pop base to stand on.
