Free Music Review: PUNK IS A STATE OF MIND, NOT A HAIRCUT, et cetera...
Hit: 5 Stars
Yes, maybe it's true that punks wouldn't be caught dead with flowers in their hair (What? NO DEAD FLOWERS??) , but, y'know what? Who cares! Dude, get a life! I'm sure the title's meant to be ironic. Go look up the word in the dictionary then you might have a clue. If this is your way of thinking, then it's obvious that Green Day and Offspring are what's considered punk. Jello Biafra, Willie Nelson and Noam Chomsky (all divergent people, but that's my point) could show you a thing or two hundred about the true meaning of Punk (Think of them as the Ghosts Of Punk Past or something...) .
As Jello sung back in the day: "Punk's not dead it just deserves to die when it becomes another stale cartoon..."
As far as Sandi Thom goes, man, the fact that she webcast her "3 wk long world tour" says it all. She did it her way. Not by going on Idol or resorting to the music world version of the casting couch. No. By playing her heart out. More power to her!
Just buy the CD to support such an admirable ethic that seems to be sorely lacking in today's musical climate.

Originally from Scotland this innovative singer/songwriter has been making news headlines in the UK. Too broke to go on the road, this 24 year old decided to set up a webcam in her South London home and stage a 3 week 'world tour' from the basement. Pulling in an audience of 70 on the 1st night, by the end of the 'tour' Sandi had 70,000 web viewers from as far afield as Russia and New Zealand. The debut single 'I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker (With Flowers In My Hair)' debuted at No.1 in the UK last month, The debut album 'Smile... It Confuses People' quickly followed suit debuting at No.1 a week later.The Debut Single from the Girl that Decided to Forego the "Idol" Process and Become Famous in a Classic 21st Century Diy Kind of Way: She Webcasted from her Basement in South London to Thousands of People around the Globe, Expanding her Audience with Every Performance! She was Quickly Signed by Craig Logan to RCA Records, the First High Profile Signing from the Internet to a Major Label. Following the Success of Artists Like Kt Tunstall, Thom's Unique Mix of Powerful, Rootsy, Soulful Vocals and Minimal Instrumentation of Only Percussion and Drums is Raw and Refreshing.
