CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description Thunder and Consolation begins grandly, keeping the keyboards from 'White Coats' on 'I Love the World,' an anthem filled with bittersweet irony and sarcasm. Self-produced, the album never falters, and the single 'Stupid Questions' made an impression on American college and modern-rock radio, especially when working visas were granted to the band and they were allowed to tour the U.S. Violin was added by Ed Elain Johnson to further fill out the sound and give it an 'Irish Folk' quality on epic songs 'Green and Grey,' and 'Vagabonds.' The band uses samples on '225' and 'Green and Grey' to further enhance the flavor of the album. EMI. 2006. Similar CDs

I remember The Acoustic Motorbike, The Best of The Waterboys 81-90, Up to Here among those that stuck with me, because of the message they all contained. The message of the NMA is all too clear, just lookup the meaning of their bandname and the connection it has with The Levellers, that followed in their footsteps. I was lucky enough to see them perform live after so many years and they have not lost their spirit. For their website and future concerts, see [...]." |
