Australian import and what release! An immensely mature outing that is
filled with 11 perfect songs, all extremely well written with a careaful eye
to not only detail, but the emotional current running underneath every note
and lyric. Much of this album reminds me of Radiohead "The Bends", classic
early Oasis and the rock side of the Brit-pop sound from the mid 90s and
even some Tears For Fears. ""The tunes come thick and fast here with some
extraordinary production values for an indie band especially on the guitar
sounds, similar to Travis and perhaps even up there with The Church.
Lyrically Splurge come over like Liam from Oasis with a brain. There is a
beatleesque and Oasis sound to some of these tunes."-DrumMedia. "In my
book, eclecticism is the mark of a significant musical talent. And this
eclecticism cannot be faked or forced, it is a skill and an attitude that an
artist either possesses or doesn't. Splurge hails from Australia and with
its sophomore collection of original songs displays quite assuredly an
eclectic mix of styles that displays confidence and
ability."-PopCulturePress. This is an album from 'note #1' that impressed
here at Not Lame and in the span of one solid day has received three
complete play-through listens already. A Major Keeper!!
