Synopsis
Album Description Surrenderender by Murdocks |
CD ReviewsGreat and almost unknown album rgf-br | Brazil | 09/19/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) ""Surrenderender" by The Murdocks is a great, great, album. I heard one of their songs in Pandora, and then listened to the whole album. They are one of the best alternative rock bands I have ever known. Instrumentally, the guys are great, their sound is really rough, raw and cohesive. It is difficult to speak about their influences, but I would say that in certain moments they sound as if the Archers of Loaf had found some inedit Replacements' songs. Frank Morris is an excellent singer, and has a really unique sceaming style (listen at him in "Da da", one of their best songs). Other highlights are "Death of a french whore", "Dance the vomit shake" and "My scarlet purpose", although there is not a weak song. Finally, "Easter Moon", different from the rest, is simply one of the best alt-country songs ever recorded." Rawk! Holden Caufield | 06/06/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "A fine first effort, Surrenderender starts off with the hooky "Saddest Star" which sets the tone for this rawkus collection of tunes. Singer Franklin Morris has a voice that is both unique and familiar; the texture he provides with his wide range "from a whisper to a scream" keeps the listener engaged throughout the duration of the CD. "Get Your Guns" and "Title Track" round out my favorites here. Grab this CD now as it's destined to be an Indie Rock classic that will no doubt be picked up by a bigger label. Be the first on your block and spread the word..Murdocks are here to stay." Murdocks Rock M. Netherton | 06/05/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "I love this album. I saw the Murdocks while they were touring for Surrenderender and they were amazing. Frank Morris' voice is unique. The band incorporates the rawness of Nirvana, the angst and appeal of Weezer, the total pureness of the Pixies. Frank Morris can scream on key, and kill you with his pain while not underestimating the intellignce of their audience.
Be sure and look for the hidden track, "June Sonata." It's beautiful. This is their first album. I'm looking forward to their next project." |
