Started A Fire

发行时间:2008-02-11
发行公司:Virgin EMI
简介:  这是一个崭新的乐队!!乐队成立于2003年,是由学校的一班“just making noise”的朋友在他们的老家Helmsley酒店,北约克郡组成的。主打歌Just For Tonight最近开始在英国各大电台热播!!   One Night Only are yet another band suffering from the "next big thing" syndrome, having had their video streamed far too often on their MySpace website. In a crowded scene of indie guitar rock, they released their debut album, Started a Fire, after a battle between record companies to sign them. The opening track, "Just for Tonight," is an anthemic song with a catchy chorus and a guitar break that could have come straight from the 1980s Big Country school of how to build the guitar into a dynamic sound, but this is one of the hallmarks of producer Steve Lillywhite, whom the band persuaded to be involved with this debut effort. Having supported the Pigeon Detectives on tour, One Night Only are no worse than them, but there is nothing truly innovative here. Started a Fire includes some good tunes with cheerful singalong choruses, particularly "You and Me," "Stay at Home," and the final track, "Hide," and on "Sweet Sugar" there is an interesting interlude with horns that echoes the 2 Tone era, but lyrically the whole album does not say very much, which is quite understandable since the five lads were all still teenagers at the time of this release. If One Night Only are not going to live up to their name, they may have to find their own direction.
