before seeing and hearing it was a hard rock song, I was hoping for a James remake....

I wasn't. Matt Nathanson and Better Than Ezra kind of burned that song being remade out on me. (Not that either of their remakes are bad, but...) :\

Hard to find a better classic alternative song than the James version.

Are you referring to the video? Cause' sure it's not too great, but I don't know why that would lead you to call them unprofesional. Everything is done to a highly capable standard. And hey they've just hit the top 40 on Active rock radio, so they're obviously doing something right that others bands are failing to do.

Haha. They're not actually that bad. I suggest you check out "Baby's Gone" if you're willing to give them a chance :)

Maybe later. But looking at how they got to #104 on BB200 without a charting single suggests that they were heavily promoted/good promo band. I'll give em that.

I don't like the lead singer the breakdown before the chorus, and the chorus. All three are very cringe-worthy.

This is surprisingly bad for being on PhotoFinish, the same label that brought us the beloved 3OH!3. ;) Why is it rising again?

^ Dev will be thrilled. I'm a little surprised it got this far, though, I have to admit. "Baby's Gone" should be the follow-up, for sure.

It's a shame that it's too late to get these guys a nomination for best new artist for the Pulse Rock Awards. But hey they won't be huge until this time next year anyway, so they'll win it all then.
