Track listing
From Here On Out ... CD/LP Released February 28 2006 Secluding themselves in a remote recording studio in Northern California for a lengthy stay with producer Matthew Smith (Outrageous Cherry), The Cuts came up with an album that perfectly encapsulates everything the band is about. It's a perfect rock 'n' roll record, with sweeping, swirling guitar lines, a deep groove, great melodies and hooks a'plenty. Andy Jordan yelps 'n' gulps like a less angst-ridden Richard Hell (or a less precious Tom Verlain) while the band cranks out songs overflowing with lavender keyboards, Raspberries-esque harmonies, chiming guitars and shuffling, danceable up-beast. Ben Brown's guitar work comes through in subtle, yet powerful ways on songs like "I'm Not Down", "Demons", and "Next To Nothing". From Here On Out ... is a stunning collection showcasing the band's delightful tunefulness on a range of fine tracks. But despite their obvious songwriting savvy and overt pop leanings, The Cuts have made a genuine rock 'n' roll record. |
