Not THE lush

"If you are thinking that you are ordering some obscure, unreleased songs by the great shoegazer band, Lush, you are wrong. Emma and Miki are not back, instead, a lame emo band has commandeered the name. Unfortunately, when I ordered this, I didn't have the opportunity to review it and [...] had listed it with the good Lush. Since I was out $[...], and it would cost me $6 to send it back for a refund (it was sent via super saver shipping with another disc), I decided to give it a spin-what a disappointment. They sound like they are trying to mimic one of the 90's bands like Sponge or Our Lady Peace, with a hint of 311, but don't come close to any of those bands. The singing is bad, the rhythm section is bad and the songs are bad. I will give them credit, the guitars are distorted, the only thing, other than the name, that they have in common with the real Lush."
