Band Apart.
From time to time I come across a band that earns my Band of the Future award. The first band to ever receive the title was The Adventures a great band that was headed for great things. MTV 120 minutes loved them, their album rocked (in 1985 it was an album) and the band on a bright star. Then I named them The Band of the Future. The next 3 albums completely tanked and by 1993 the band was no more. This was too be the way of all of my Bands of the Future. By the time I found Golden Palominos Anton Fier had said publicly Dead Inside was there last CD. So in true HeyDan tradition it is Band of the Future time!
Glee Club this Irish trio is my new find and find is just was it is. The CD Mine is now out of print and I could only track it down on ebay. But it is well worth it. All I can say to describe the band is haunting. The sound of the band is heavy folk and melodic. The lead singer Joanne Loughman is a very talented inspired vocalist. She sounds a lot like Siouxsie Sioux (Siouxsie & the Banshees) but clearer with better range. Lyricly think early Church with more complexity. All and all the disk has high points, such as the turns Need and Free to Believe as well as some low points that my grow on me. This is what shoutcast has brought to my life. A band out of print and that has not put out a DC in 8 years is now my new
