[.ca] The Scene's Out of Sight

Their next one might really be outta sight:
Melodic power pop with a singer whose adenoidal vocals are an acquired taste. As an album, "The Scene's Out of Sight" is bouncy, kinda fun, and unafraid of swapping spazzy energy for melancholic introspection. Actionslacks will never light the world on fire, but they're good enough that someone, somewhere, might cherish them as a favorite band.

Simply Masterful:
The first song I ever heard by these guys was "Joan of Arc". On the first listen, I was completely, 100% hooked. The songwriting, the music, everything and I mean, EVERYTHING, was just perfect. I just had to have everything I could find by this band. I went on a downloading spree, and then bought the record a few weeks later. I was not dissipointed. Everything this band has done, every single song, is quality. Even the cover art of this album is cool. While all of the songs here are good, the highlights are: -The Scene's Out of Sight - An absoutely amazing song. -Folding Chair - The songwriting in this song can't be beat. -Shining Jewels - Piano. Beat Piano. -Joan of Arc - Simply one of the most amazing songs ever. -John J. Suillivan - A very interesting song. And great. Just. Buy this. Its timeless and incredible.

Indie Rock at its best:
I first heard of Actionslacks back in the day of the now infamous Napster...I downloaded a few songs and discovered that I needed this cd. That was a year or two ago..perhaps three,...this cd has remained one of my favorites and I find myself going back to it at least a few times a week. The songs are all wonderful, they vary between semi-acoustic and rock. Then there are the ballads, like "Last Night I Dreamed" which just blew me away. I always recommend this album to my friends, and all of them that have heard it really enjoyed it and wanted to know where to buy it... If you get a chance to see them live, you are very lucky and do not pass it up.
