3 Storeys High

This is a review on the old 3 storeys high album 3 Storeys High - When The Words Won't Come
Reviewed: 5th November 2005 This CD has been sat with me for a few weeks now, whilst people pile all sorts of crap on my desk, and I tend to direct it towards the nearest dustbin, this is one of the few CDs Ive had to review in about 6 months which is worth far more than a place in someones CD rack, clocking up the occasional listen, let alone, my computer desk.

Colleen Green

Colleen Green always wears sunglasses onstage. Colleen Green is long hair and getting high. Colleen Green's first full-length for Hardly Art, Sock it to Me, is grounded in pure pop. Colleen Green's multi-tracked, emotive vocals take an enormous leap forward, evoking all-time heroes such as Rose Melberg and Tina Weymouth, with every drum-machine-tracked song awash in the dreamy slacker romanticism of California.

The Arrivals

The Arrivals are a four piece from Blue Island, Illinois, Southside of Chicago. They write songs about everything and nothing, sometimes all at once. They sound like Mission of Burma trying to write Kinks songs, though most people have their own f-ed up description that may be just as valid. They've toured with Dillinger Four(with whom they now share a bass player), The Soviettes, Toys That Kill, Rise Against, Tiltwheel, Vena Cava, Grabass Charlestons, and The Lawrence Arms.
