Get the Message 2:36 -- -- Stag is the kind of band that formed for exactly the right reason: because the five members found joy in making music together. If that seems simple, and old-fashioned in a way, there was once a time when that was the only reason music was ever crafted by any rock band. -- -- On their first full-length, Seattle’s Stag present songs that are universally appealing and deceptively sunny featuring dark lyrics delivered with exhilarating guitars and pretty pop melodies that hook the imagination whether a listener is looking back or charging forward through life. Charles Cross described them thusly, “It is music that makes an experienced listener feel young, or a young listener feel understood, which is exactly why it seems so true to the essence of what great rock ‘n’ roll is always about — possibility and yearning.” Contains previously released songs on their now out of print EPs as well as new material. The results are tunes that sit easily next to the best work of Cheap Trick, Big Star, Redd Kross and Guided By Voices. “These Times” describes the world of the passively oblivious, exhorting listeners to clear their minds and take action, whereas songs like “Sister Lee” and “To Be Young” are paens to reckless, restless youth. “Love Her Records” namechecks beloved labels like SST and Dischord with crunchy guitars and a perfect power pop hook. “Don’t Lead With Your Heart” is a sweetly melodic song of heartbreak. -- -- (source: Record company website) -- -- UPC 854891004308 -- -- The Amazon ASIN for the mp3 version of this CD is B00A2TKK2W -- -- -- Another listing by Zip
