4.0 out of 5 stars This just might be the best band you've never heard, January 8, 2003

By	JC (Bethlehem, PA) - See all my reviews

The Badlees continue their effort to fight the record company establishment with their latest collection of poignant, earnest, heart-felt American rock and roll. The self-released "Renew" has a slightly harder edge than some of the bands earlier, more acoustic-based material, but the band hasn't lost it's way. The focus remains on the voice lead singer Pete Palladino gives to guitarist Bret Alexander's tales of love and longing. The CD's title is in reference to the bands spiritual rebirth. After a hiatus that saw each of the groups members involved in side projects, the band reunited to decide their future and thankfully chose to continue their partnership. The tight harmonies and skillful musicianship on display here confirm the band still has plenty of great music to share with their fans.

4.0 out of 5 stars Back in Style, February 9, 2003

By	Boz (Harrisburg, PA) - See all my reviews

After a working-over by the music industry and nearly going their seperate ways, the Badlees have returned, "Renew"-ed. An excellent album that shows a harder edge, a softer edge and just about everything in between. Fans of their more acoustic sound won't have much to listen to hear as the band becomes more involved with overdubs and slicker production values. An excellent album for a band that defies stereotyping and does their own thing with their music. My biggest disappointment is the brevity of the album - 39 minutes. Highlights - all of it!
