Rated 10/10
90's Welsh indie/alt rock mixed with a touch of britpop. Same kinda vein as Oasis or Travis (remember that Scottish band that was actually good? Lol). From what I've read, they were trying to break out of Wales at the same time as Manic Street Preachers and just got left in their dust so never got the worldwide recognition that MSP got. These guys are every bit as good or better than them though in my opinion.
Favourite songs: Local Boy in the Photograph, Traffic, More Life in a Tramps Vest, A Thousand Trees, Goldfish Bowl, Not Up to You, Same Size Feet, Too Many Sandwiches, Last of the Big Time Drinkers, Check My Eyelids For Holes, Billy Davey's Daughter
Least favourite songs: Looks Like Chaplin
5/5
Rated 4/10
Guitar rock from the transition from Britpop to indie. Best bits are garagey and energetic with a kind of whiney emo vocal but a lot of it pretty generic - it rocks and rolls in all the expected places.
Rated 4/10
30 minutes through, "jeez, is this still going?" so, y'know,
Rated 6/10
great opening track, but the rest seemed pedestrian
Rated 6/10
I do like Stereophonics but apart from performance and cocktails I think there albums are a bit average. Feel like a thousand trees carries this album, but still was a pleasant listen and happy to have it on this user list.
