5.0 out of 5 stars A Triumph, January 31, 2009

By	Steven Stewart "Critic Extraordinaire" (steveo.stewart@hotmail.co.uk) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Cage the Elephant (Audio CD)

Well the first time I had ever heard of the band was with vocalist Matt Schultz appearance on British comedy show "Never Mind The Buzzcocks." He formed an unlikely alliance with Stephen Fry and Josie Long. The bands music wasn't played or even that heavily mentioned in the show, but thanks to Matts antic I became intrigued at what this band had to offer. Were they just another indy band with nothing new to give, or were they something fresh and original amongst a bland "pop-rock indy" music scene.

They are definitely the latter in that respect and have brought to a world audience possibly the best album of 2008. From "In One Ear" to "Free Love" Cage the Elephant present a delightful, cool, loud and crazy album that will have all the bland indy music lovers wake up and realise originality and talent when they hear it.

The vocals of Matt Schultz is definitely the most enticing part of the band as although it's not something I haven't heard before, he has a sort of reminiscent rebellious tone to his voice that I'm not sure why but remind me of the great punk bands the Ramones, The Clash and even the Sex Pistols. Cage The Elephant are nowhere near as controversial as these legendary bands, but they're certainly just as loud and abrupt and really make you want to get on your feet and go nuts when listening to their music.

The guitar and bass by Brad Shultz, Daniel Titchenor and Lincoln Parish definitely add to that old school feel and sometimes mimic the equally awesome guitar talents of Pistols guitarist Steve Jones.

My Top 5 are

1. Aint No Rest For The Wicked
2. In One Ear
3. Back Stabbin' Betty
4. James Brown
5. Free Love

5.0 out of 5 stars What a fantastic suprise!!!!!!, April 22, 2009

By	Anthem006 "Bex" (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cage the Elephant (Audio CD)

I first saw CTE's video for "Ain't No Rest..." and the tune was catchy enough that I did some research on-line and saw that they were performing at Cafe Du Nord in SF a few days later. I caught the show and I must say that it is one of the BEST performances I've ever seen. I met Brad, his wife and Matt afterwards and they are some of the nicest and down to earth people I've ever met. I hope that doesn't change when they become huge stars, which I KNOW they will. Matt's energy on stage is electrifying and Lincoln is a surprisingly talented guitarist. He's only 19 yrs. old???!!! I bought the album and it pales in comparison to seeing them live, but it is a stil an awesome example of the band's talent. I know they are going to hi it BIG!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great debut album, July 31, 2009

By	Chet (New Jersey) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cage the Elephant (Audio CD)

The first time I heard Cage the Elephant, a couple months back, I realized that these guys are something special. Catchy tunes, intriguing lead vocals, and lots of good old-fashioned rock'n'roll. A mix of the White Stripes, Kings of Leon and Red Hot Chili Peppers, among others. And it all works. Standout tracks are "In One Ear," "James Brown," lead single "Ain't No Rest For the Wicked," "Back Against the Wall" and "Sail to the Sun." A very solid debut that's well worth checking out.
