Search - Geneva :: Weather Underground

Possibly the most underrated band in the world!

"This is a fantastic album, but possibly still not as good as their debut recording "Further". The album opens with the first single "Dollars in the heavens" which seems to have the potential for a big US hit. The second track "If you have to go" is an absolute classic and alone is worth buying this album for. Other highlights on the album are "Cassie", "Museum mile" and the instrumental "Morricone". It's a pity this band haven't had the recognition they deserve in their native Scotland. The only small criticism I would have of the album is the songs aren't quite on a par with those from the magnificient "Further" album. However, the band's sound has improved immensely. Go buy this album - you won't regret it!"

Excellent follow up

"I had been waiting to buy this cd for ages and when I did I wasn't disappointed. If You Have To Go quickly became my favorite song with it's gorgeous lyrics and music. Combined with the soaring vocals and it is practically the most beautiful song ever written. Cassie is my second favorite song though in a different vain that I.Y.H.T.G. It's more poppy sounding with a nice beat to it. Dollars In The Heavens has some excellent lyrics and vocal ranges as well and deserved the be a single. All the lyrics are catching and make you want to sing along. A must for fans of fellow label mates Suede and anyone who likes the Longpigs, Marion, Pulp & the like."
