Woodface

Rock muy suave. Blandito. Melódico.

the weather can take this one back to the studio

A decent half psychedelic / half alternative new wave hybrid, but certainly nothing I’d go back to. Second half is EONS above the first. STANDOUTS: -Chocolate Cake -Fall At Your Feet -Whispers and Moans -There Goes God -All I Ask -As Sure As I Am -Italian Plastic -She Goes On

I don’t know much about Crowded House. I’m digging this album. Easy to listen to, hook-heavy 90’s pop. Kind of reminds me of Toad the Wet Sprocket a bit.

2.5 | Al parecer los titanes australianos del pop rock alternativo... Se aprende algo nuevo cada día supongo. El primer punto que sí le tengo que alabar mucho al disco es que se oye en extremo limpio y bien producido, los arreglos de las canciones se oyen no más complejos de lo necesario según la canción y todo el disco tiene un sonido muy brillante, claro y nivelado. La música está bien, me agradó una buena parte sin llegar a sentir que fuera muy destacada en nada particular. Tiene algunas canciones que me llamaron mucho la atención como Weather With You, Fall At Your Feet o Italian Plastic, pero por otro lado llega a puntos que si de por sí ya la música se siente demasiado estándar e inofensiva se va al máximo adulto contemporáneo nivel "véanme soy su tío rockeron hazme mi cuba con presidente que buena está la fiesta traje unos aguacates rellenos" hasta con letras cursis como en Chocolate Cake o There Goes God. No es que tenga nada malo (por ejemplo cualquiera del disco me parece exponencialmente mejor que Steely Dan, que es un grupo que me sonaría medio comparable), pero simplemente no es mi estilo. Par de canciones agradables, el resto simplemente pasó y sonó agradable sin mucha pena ni gloria. Un poco de crédito extra por la buena producción y esas canciones buenas

Hi Sebi hope you're having a great day :3

Just some pleasant pop rock. No standout good or bad tracks. 6-7/10

It’s scientifically proven that if you listen to this album for 30 days straight it will increase the estrogen levels in your body and you will grow tits:

Este disco se debería llamar Zero Risks, Zero Chances. Logran con música segura y letra 'introspectiva' hacer un one night stand aburrido. El solo de armónica en There Goes God es el mejor del disco, porque los demás son terribles, los que logran calificar como tales, claro. Todavía se atreven a criticar a la gente new age 'There's no rebellion, just a chance to be lazy'. En general las letras me parecen malas, por decir lo menos. No conformes con todo esto, 14 canciones y 48 minutos que culminan con el hidden track donde se ponen "locos". Songs: It's only natural, Four Seasons In One Day.

I’ve lived in New Zealand for 8yrs and now listened to one of the best New Zealand albums ever. Not an Aussie album.

I actually really like this album. I would actually look up more by them and consider getting an album for my playlist.

Had never heard of this band before. I liked them, and they have a cool, fresh sound but it didn't wow me either. A good easy listen, but I'm not itching to revisit immediately

Not my thing.I liked the Italian Plastic and Weather with You

I don’t know. That album did nothing for me. It was competent but felt completely soulless for some reason.

May need to listen to it again but it did not really catch my interest.

If nothing else this project is acquainting me with the music of a lot of names/bands I've heard of but never listened to. This was really not to my taste though.

Weather With You is a definite highlight of the album. It's good but nothing spectacular.

Este disco me suena a una mezcla entre George Harrison y Simply Red. Está agradable y fácil de escuchar, pero a la vez tampoco se me hizo el álbum que redefinió la música para siempre. Quizá lo hizo en Australia y eso le ganó estar en esta lista. Mi canción favorita fue "Italian Plastic", seguida de "It's Only Natural"

Cuando vi este nombre no pasó por mi cabeza que fuera la banda que hizo "Don't dream it's over". El disco me sorprendió muy positivamente pues siento que este es el Soft Rock muy bien producido que vale la pena: cada canción tiene algún detalle musical, algún arreglo, algo en la voz que la hace disfrutable. En especial me gustaron 'Four Seasons In One Day', 'All I Ask' y 'As Sure As I Am'.

It was good just different

Meh. Bland late 80s/early 90s pop rock.

No nyt on aikuisrockia isolla A:lla. Normaalisti saan näppylöitä tällaisesta musiikista mutta täähän toimii ihan ok! Liekö keski-ikä iskemässä?

Nice, easy listen. Good for working to or as background music.

Pretty good 👍.

Enjoyed this album. Sounded like the real people mixed with the bluetones

It was certainly not the album with the hit on it. It was a solid pop albun with the angst one expects from crowded house, but nothing really stuck out as a single to me.

super eclectic and mellow.

This album didn't really do it for me. There's nothing wrong with it, and I suspect if I were in a different mood it might've come across as more compelling. As it is, it's somewhere between 2 and 3 stars, and I'm not feeling charitable this a.m.: 2 stars.

I felt like this album got better as it went along. It's not something that I will probably seek out in the future, but I would be super excited if this was playing in a grocery store while I was shopping 3/5

4,5/5

trök. något som funkar i bakgrunden men inget jag vill lyssna på igen

Pari todella kovaa biisiä ja muutenkin ihan kivasti soiva.

A few keepers in this one!

Weather with you and Four seasons in one day are nice but the rest seems pretty mediocre. Okay album overal but nothing extraordinary

2 hit wonder-band men inte värdig en plats i boken.

Decent album. But, like many albums on this list, forgettable after the listen.

Cool, nice, didn't know "Weather is with you" is their song

About halfway through the album, somebody starts shouting during the outro to a song. It got my attention, because it was the first time anybody in the band showed any emotion. I'm probably being too cynical, but it sure feels like Crowded House worked their way joylessly through a checklist. Scathing indictment of American culture? Check. Multiple instrumental solos that are just long enough to display some talent? Check. Children's choir singing backing vocals? You betcha. The one thing they forgot to pack? A bit of passion. It shouldn't feel like a chore to listen to a 48-minute pop rock album, but here we are. Best track: Fall at Your Feet

Wow what a find

Going in, I had no idea who these guys were, but after a couple songs I was absolutely sure they were from Australia or New Zealand. A jangly guitar sound and an intuitive understanding of Western music theory make for songs that are both catchy and beautiful, and for one reason or another they're pretty strong signals for a band being from Oz or NZ. (However, it was a little surprising that these guys weren't from Dunedin.) I'm going with a 4 for now, solely because I'm extremely sparing with my 5s, but there's an extremely strong probability that I bump this up on RateYourMusic a year or two from now. Best song: It's Only Natural was really good, and How Will You Go was a magical closer, although there are a ton to choose from.

After two listens, it finally clicked that this band has a very R.E.M. feel to them. I really enjoyed it, even if at times the instruments sound like they're from the Spyro video game series. Great album from front to back. Favorite tracks: "Tall Trees", "Weather With You", "It's Only Natural"

1991. Key Songs: Four Seasons In One Day, Fall At Your Feet, Weather With You

Was good as an album just not my type of music that's why I rated it low

Pretty decent poppy new wave album. Not very original, but fun nonetheless. Closer to a 3.5

i like them and was surprised na Don't Dream it's over guys nga pala to

Boring!
