CD ReviewsThey're not from England! j_trory | Danbury, CT USA | 01/28/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "Just to clear something up that was mentioned by another review, the Tender Idols are not from England. They are from Atlanta, Georgia.Anyway, that's not really the issue. The Tenders Idols have been around for a while (check out the haggered face of the guitarist - he looks like John Lennon after Yoko had sucked the life out of him) and Distressor is their third album. It's also their best, possibly because they have themselves a fairly new - and extremely talented - bassist in Joe Jones.Distressor is a mix of everything associated with Brit pop with a little punk and heavy rock thrown in for good measure. It's nothing very innovative or particularly new, but it's a very well produced album that is the kind of CD I like to listen to when I write. They're a solid band who deserve to start getting some recognition soon." You gotta get this one j_trory | 05/15/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "I saw them this past Friday in Atlanta. I went with a friend and was given the CD for free. I listened to a couple of the songs while I was there and then took off. Boy, did I make a mistake. After listening to the CD I should have stayed around. I am going to get the first CD too." Give this band a chance- you won't regret it j_trory | 05/10/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "I saw the Tender Idols open up for Our Lady Peace in Fort Myers Florida and they were so good that I bought Distressor right away. They are a really great, up-and-coming band from England, and if I had to compare them to any band it would be Oasis. They aren't heavy, but they do know how to jam and this album is just good solid rock n' roll. The guitars are really good, and most of the songs have good beats which make them flow really well. The singer uses a megaphone sometimes, and it has a really cool effect. Man Out of Season, Freefall, Someone I Loved Tonight, and Losing Controls are especially good. If you like Oasis or Coldplay, or if you just want a good record to put on in your car or at home, give this one a shot."
