Taking it back to the garage band revival, again this week with The Vines. I love these guys, bad. The Vines, hail from from the land down under. Which is kind of cool, considering that I can only think of 3 other Aussie bands that made it big. (although I’m sure there are many more). Midnight Oil, Men at Work, and Silverchair are the ones that come to mind. When they released the “Get Free” single, it was instantly one of my favorites. Their most recent album “Melodia” seems to have mellowed out, a bit. The songs aren’t completely soft, or anything like that. But they definitely seem less angry, generally. In addition to the musical style, I love the sound quality. The guitars all have rich deep tone, reminiscent of analog recordings from the 60’s. The song I picked out for today is from “Melodia.” It’s called “Orange Amber.” It was between that and “Rainfall” from the “Winning Days” album. They are both currently two of my favorite songs. Ultimately, I went with “Orange Amber” because it is short and sweet, at just over 2 minutes long. Chekkidout.
