Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia

I've been listening to this a lot recently. Great record. It actually came out in 2000, but I never really listened to them except for the one song that they had on the radio back then - Bohemian Like You. This record ‘Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia’ is very good. They kind of sound like modern day Velvet Underground. Pretty psychedelic at times. My favorite tracks so far are Nietzsche, Country Leaver and Big Indian. The first two tracks, Godless, and Mohammed are strange openers. Kind of take their time getting started, but evolve into well constructed and interesting songs that are very easy to listen to, they kind of just float around. Then they hit hard with Nietzsche - loud, crunchy guitars, and a great riff that lets them get away with playing over and over and over, and leaves you wanting more. I guess my point is that this record is put together well. The structure and placing of the songs is perfect. I’m sure these guys would be great to see live, looks like they play a lot over in Europe, not sure if they’ve ever come to Florida. Hope they do. Check out www.digthemovie.com looks like a pretty cool project that they were a part of. Not sure if it will play here. Doesn’t look promising.
