 Have you ever listened to a new band that you've never heard of before, and the first time you play their CD you make a stink-face? But, then when you listen to it again, you say to yourself WOW, THIS IS REALLY PRETTY GOOD. WHY DID I MAKE A STINK FACE BEFORE WHEN I LISTENED TO THIS? I NEED TO TELL MY FRIENDS ABOUT THIS BAND!? Well, that's a great way for me to describe my experience with Constant Velocity. Now that I've listened to their newest album entitled MUTTONHEAD a few more times, I love it. It's great. Well done, boys!
Currently, there's a song on this CD called KELLY that has my full attention. It's really good. In fact, I'd love to see them play it live. Most of these songs seem as though they'd be a great to catch live. As I was reading their bio, I came across a great quote which might explain why I can imagine their music live while listening to this CD:
That is why our album sounds different. The microphones go up and we bash it out. What you hear is the way we really sound, warts and all. Just like bands used to do in the 60s.
That's a pretty good way to explain why they sound different. They've got a lot of energy for a three-piece band playing art-punk who come from Bloomington, IL. So, go ahead and give them a listen. Just make sure you listen to the album a couple times before you make up your mind. Don't give it stink-face without giving them another listen.
Check out their website, fools!
