Comments:_______.oOo._______ . _______.oOo._______ . _______.oOo._______<br /> <br /> <br /> [Wikipedia]<br /> <br /> <br /> Word Gets Around is the debut album by Welsh rock band Stereophonics.<br /> The songs are credited to all three band members; singer/guitarist Kelly Jones,<br /> bassist Richard Jones and drummer Stuart Cable, while the lyrics were written by Kelly Jones.<br /> The album reached #6 in the UK Albums Chart and is the only Stereophonics album not to reach #1.<br /> <br /> Much of the album is written about everyday life in Cwmaman.<br /> <br /> <br /> [All Music Guide]<br /> (by Jason Damas)<br /> <br /> <br /> In the late '90s, a rash of Welsh rock bands emerged, among them Catatonia, Super Furry Animals,<br /> 60 Ft. Dolls, and the Stereophonics. On the surface, the Stereophonics' gritty rock & roll seems<br /> relatively uninspired, but upon close listen Word Gets Around proves to be a very accomplished debut.<br /> Vocalist/guitarist Kelly Jones' vocals are raw and rip the songs apart, as his loud, arena-ready<br /> guitar assault gives every track a gritty edge. Jones' lyrics are also of note; highly poetic and<br /> meaningful, he writes about the underbelly of a small town. The anthemic opener, the outrageously<br /> catchy "A Thousand Trees," details how a respected high school athletic coach ruined his career<br /> through a lurid sexual encounter with a female student, and the quick, jagged "More Life in a<br /> Tramp's Vest" displays the view of the world through the eyes of a supermarket bag boy.<br /> Word Gets Around isn't all about hard rockers, though; the hit "Traffic" is a beautifully constructed<br /> ballad that works marvelously when a juxtaposition is made between the music and Jones'<br /> rough vocal styling. While Word Gets Around occasionally suffers from blandness,<br /> it is a remarkably accomplished debut LP.<br /> <br /> <br /> [Pitchfork Media]<br /> (by Brent DiCrescenzo)<br /> <br /> <br /> Sylvan buskers, the Stereophonics, are part of the lumberjacking post- britpop fringe that looks to<br /> bury the teenybop and sassy- asses of post- Blur bands somewhere out in the northern hills. Trouble is,<br /> the Stereophonics brand of straight- up, blister- handed, beer- and- buddies rock-n-roll is pretty bland<br /> and not very fun. At best, they sound like the Manic Street Preachers sans- pizzaz. The Stereophonics,<br /> while truthfully writing some good tunes, just never get past the second tier level of British bands,<br /> doomed to play the muddy small stages of Glastonbury at noon-- serviceable, yet disposable.<br /> <br /> Filled with heartfelt ballads and socio- political soapboxing, the Stereophonics are the British equivalent<br /> of a H.O.R.D.E. tour band. I think their problem is that they sound too American. They could be from Oregon.<br /> They seem like the types that wear flannel, hike, and condone recycling. Fitting,<br /> as they rehash classic rock riffs from the '70s and repaste 'em into jangly pub structures. Aside from a few<br /> hummable singles, the Stereophonics will sadly disappear forgotten. It's all just too flavorless and generic.<br /> Fortunately, they live in a welfare state.<br /> <br /> <br /> _______.oOo._______ . _______.oOo._______ . _______.oOo._______<br /> <br /> <br /> 1.
