Remember the MTV Buzz Bin from the early 90's? I do.
That's where I discovered this hard rocking Aussie band. Of course, when I saw their Buzz Bin video, it was this one, which isn't all that hard-rockin' at all. But the song grew on me. It was catchy. It wasn't exactly like everything else on the radio. And Suze DeMarchi - the lead vocalist - had a compelling and husky voice.
So I went and bought their CD, and put it in. And this was track 1. Thankfully, it was also the 2nd single. What a great, hard-rocking song! This is still, to this day, one of my favorite songs.
Of course, with label pressures, along with Suze's budding romance with and eventual marriage to Nuno Bettencourt, the band broke up. But, eventually, they got back together.... and did an acoustic album of all their hits. Including this hard rocking song. And it worked at the slower tempo. Here is the band performing it back in 2010.
Of course, they didn't take the edge off of everything. Here is "Painless" from a show in 2013.
We would be doing the band a disservice if we neglected to mention that they have a new album out. This is Not The End is available now. The first single is the compelling "Email", and we hope you enjoy it.
