Not had a chance to listen properly yet, the name does ring a bell, though, but I would argue that you might be overstating things just a teensy little bit.
I'm pretty damned sure I could find twenty or thirty albums at least as good released in the last ten years.

When will you ever give up making outlandish claims about dreary crap music?

It certainly isn't crap but it certainly isn't great! Nice enough but very derivative and lacking both strong hooks and direction (you know, storytelling, a journey, a developing emotional message, etc) in the arrangements.

I lasted 15 seconds.

My wife says that's normal.

About 15 seconds for me too.

I daresay this means it'll be top of the charts by the end of next month and all over the radio for the next 6.

Another good reason to pay for spotify.

Bah, Head Automatica's - Decadence was released 2004 so 1 year outside of your criteria. On the plus side your outlandish claim has me listening to Head Automatica a good way to start the working day.

Never have though

yet your posting history shows persistent astroturfing/spamming/trolling of the most turgid music possible.

Come on fella... Plugging your friends band is fine but the riduculous claims you make as a thread title can only be taken as jest.

Sorry man but that was pretty bland.. your description is way off the mark.. off the top of my head, here's a few female fronted pop(ish) acts that urinate all over that example..

Now you can see/hear? why the proper Kelly Jones sells songs whilst she will fade into obscurity, like listening to water from a dripping tap ๐Ÿ™‚

You did this a while ago, 6079smithw, maybe even last year, and I foolishly clicked on the link, all enthusiastic like. The resulting sounds were drivel.

Frankly, you have zero taste.
