Silverchair - First Album


I got that one today...and I think I haven't listened to it for the last 10 years.  I remember liking it very much when they've released it in 1995. During that time, for some reason Heavy Metal was quite weak... somewhat killed by the rise of the Grunge. This one was issued from the Grunge movement and it was one of my favourite album of 1995. Re-listening to it today made me realized why I like it so much... it is a mix of Grunge and Stoner Rock. What's really impressive is that this band recorded this album when they were 16 years old only!  Although the lyrics sometime sound like they have been written by teenagers, the music is pretty solid and they sound amazing for a 3 pieces band.

The re-issue is pretty cool... 2LP with a frog etched on side D. If you don't know them, give them a try. They became what is probably the biggest Australian rock band after AC/DC
