4.0 out of 5 stars A band to watch!, August 9, 2005

A friend in the music business persuaded me to go to Nural's record release show at the Troubador recently, although I'd never heard of the band before and was initially reluctant. I was expecting something generic but this band really surprised me. I won't ramble on about the show, but if you do get the chance to see Nural play live, GO.

I got my mitts on this CD on Sunday night, and I haven't been able to stop playing it ever since. While I wish they rocked as hard on the album as they did live, it's pretty darn good and the songs are great. My favorites would have to be Chasing You and Enlighten Me, because they have a strong anthemic feel to them. They wouldn't be out of place in the alt. rock top 40, or on the Madden game. Pretty impressive given the relative obscurity of the band. These guys are talented, and I honestly think Nural have what it takes to make it big. This album is definitely one to check out if you're a rocker.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easily one of the best bands to come along for a long time!, August 14, 2005

Being that my gf is a cousin to the lead singer of Nural, I have been listening to them for 2 years, and I must say congrats for this wonderful debut album. For me many bands that are on the radio today are stale and sterotypes. Now Nural comes along at a perfect time, with such hits like The Curse (My personal favorite), as well as the highly addictive Tension, Not Guilty, Lukewarm, and Chasing You are all some of the very best songs I have ever listened to. I Highly Reccomend Nural to fans of alternative rock. I can't wait till Nural hits #1 on the top charts, if they continue to release such top quality stuff, I can easily see them getting there! Good Job guys keep up the great work!

High-energy guitar and drums, combined with the lead singer alternating between crooning and belting, occasionally including piano and strings to fill out their anthems.
Try "Tension" or "Enlighten Me" for the strong, up-beat rock ballads; "The Curse" has moments of smooth lyrical flow that are nearly rap-metal; juxtaposed with the beautiful lyrics and storytelling of "I Told You So" and the acoustic vocal talent demonstrated in "Forgive Me".
A great band, incredible vocal talent showcased throughout the album, a great deal at this price, and I can't wait for their next release. Play it loud and sing along.
