5.0 out of 5 stars
treble charger is a very under-rated band, August 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Treble Charger (self-title) (Audio CD)
treble charger plays a great style of alternative and all their albums are great. They deserve more exposure. They are a truly great band. Some great songs on this cd are, Morale, Even Grable and Sick Friend Called. You should check out their other albums.

It's Okay., October 15, 2005
This review is from: Treble Charger (self-title) (Audio CD)
This is my least favourite treble charger album. First time I listened I didn't like but they soon grew on me so it'll probably be the same with others. But still its the least attractive for a top-40 fan; nc-17 appeals more. Don't judge just by these songs if you don't like.
Morale, Even Grable, Case In Fact, and Slight aren't that catchy songs. Cleric's Hip is okay too. They may be good to indie fans but not TC's fans who also like mainstream music. Sick Friend Called and Motor Control are more enjoyable. Disclaimer isn't of much effort like the rest but its relaxing and depressing you can listen to lots once it grows on you. And Half Down is sluggish, the vocals aren't good, mellow but not depressing like Disclaimer.

Is the new version of this CD different?, January 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Treble Charger (self-title) (Audio CD)
I got this CD in '96, but it's the original version. You know, the one with: 1. screen zine 2. morale 3. even grable 4. case in fact 5. cleric's hip 6. sick friend called 7. motor control 8. slight So, why does the track listing seem to be different? did BMG get treble charger to make some new songs? Oh well. Let's get to the point. This CD is amazing! Morale is obviously the catchiest tune on the disc, but the rest of the songs are dope. Catch the videos for morale and even grable, they're so indie...of course you wouldn't really get even grable's video if you're not into Canadian music. This is a great followup to nc-17; they crank up the volume a little more. nc-17 is amazing as well; it is VERY indie sounding and I love it. Maybe it's me is alright, but the songs are more mainstream and MuchMusic friendly (as well as radio friendly). I have all 3 CDs and I'm torn between nc-17 and self=title for being my favourite. The enhanced Cd part of self=title adds bonus points, though. The "he is just a rat" is good for a laugh, and gives a sample of lots of other excellent Canadian bands, some from Sonic Unyon which is tc's original label. Also you should check out tc's website (although I warn you it's not updated often). So, if anyone knows why my Sonic Unyon self=title is different, send me an e-mail or something.
