hmmm tell me more this treetops band ben... are they good?


Ben  said about 3 years ago:

well i dont know much about them... they were good in a coolsie floppy-hair 'summer-of-love' pop kinda way a few years back... but apparently, since their old skool line-up re-united a few months back, the band are gettin more psych rock and droney...

personally, i'm really keen to hear how they are nowdays.

anok  said about 3 years ago:

pick the odd band out. lalz


Gorn  said about 3 years ago:

Hmm not sure.


Gorn  said about 3 years ago:

There is a good press release however:

A recent national tour saw Treetops reform after five long years in the inner-northern wilderness and radically shed their old skin (brought on by a pungent musical dissatisfaction developed after listening back to a live recording of the first show in Sydney) to reveal their usual sun-spangled brand of jangle pop blown up and pushed through a spacerock vortex via Kosmische synths, bongheavy riffs and travellin’ jams that attracted as many new fans as puzzled loyalists around the country.
Weaving in and out of the new sonic bukakke drift the old snatches of Canyonesque harmony and melody that have helped to defend the volatile Treetopian kingdom since forming in 2002.

The Electric Jellyfish bring their lurching songs laced with full throttle intensity that has left audiences here and in the U.S devout converts with rattled heads and spinning eyes.

Eccentric sonic miscreants The Parking Lot Experiments will be reporting their findings from the next plane with not a lecture, but a musical happening.

Opening the night Melbourne's own pie fed & impeccably bred fancy boys with too much money for gear and a vague disregard for composition, ladies and gentlemen.... ii

SIX DOLLARS!!!

''Sometimes you wake up in the morning, you know you've had no sleep but this thing in your head keeps going noogy, noogy, noogy, and presents itself to you. You can even laugh at the stupid psychology of the exercise. It's just your brain, which you'd always thought was a cool brain (because it's your brain) and it's saying, ''Be afraid. Be very afraid.'' It doesn't happen to everyone. It only happens to you and you can't tell anyone else as how the hell would they understand?''
