Free Music Review: A Good Post-Grunge Era Album & Some Great Gems To Go Along
Hit: 3 Stars
Bush released their self-debut album across seas in 1994,while Grunge was fading from the lime light, following the grunge movement they inspired the term 'post-grunge'. In Cloning the slow thick grunge format they brought some gems to the table such as the modern rock staple "Everything Zen" (Track 1), and power house "Machinehead" (Track 7).
Bush never really brought anything new to music industry but gained fortune from polishing the eras style and doing it in a fashionable manor. With the first few lines sung in "Glycerine" one could easily misinterpret it as Nirvana (vocally speaking, not so much the general slow orchestral tune).
Most of the album free flows but dabs into too lengthy of song durations and unnecessary tracks, but overall the first few listens hold up quite well in the general scheme of things.
"X-Girlfriend" is a nice little punkish pepped track to end the album, but this suffers from being too short. Unfortunately the songs are either too long or too short (again as previously mentioned), if balanced would of definitely benefited in the bands case. "Alien" is probably the best example of a dragged on song, slow kind of goes no where.
Overall the album holds up enough to have some replay value and not just for the singles, the lyrics are not the greatest but pass. "Sixteen Stone" is a bargain buy album.
Sixteen Stone Poster
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Nirvana should've been quite flattered by Sixteen Stone. The English quartet perfectly mimics the early '90s grunge sound with this '94 release. As for Kurt Cobain comparisons, singer Gavin Rossdale has a captivating voice, but lyrics are not his forte, as the splintered ramblings of "Everything Zen" indicates. (Gotta do better than "There's no sex in your violence.") The players meanwhile produce a perfectly competent approximation of their Northwestern heroes. "Little Things" is a successful rewrite of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" while "Machinehead" crunches like Pearl Jam and Soundgarden. In fact, the whole album feels like a throwback to 1992. Sixteen Stone may be derivative, but it's catchy as hell, too. --Rob O'ConnorSpecial limited edition release, in a double slimline jewel case, adds an acoustic version of 'Come Down' to their triple platinum debut album and also includes a four track bonus disc of live recordings from March 1996. 17tracks.
