CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com It takes some kind of moxie to borrow the name for your band from an immortal Kinks' album, but the duo that is known as Portland, Oregon's Village Green wears its moniker proudly on its debut record, which salutes not only the Davies brothers, but all things Brit pop throughout its pool of 11 gleaming rock songs. Led by songwriter and vocalist J. Nicholas Allard, whose mood-altering voice can evoke Colin Blunstone as easily as Pete Shelley, the self-produced release flaunts a complexity and dexterity in both wordplay and melody. Try "Om: The Meaning of Life" or "Chomping At the Bit" for their simplistic luster or be bowed by the Pretenders-like "Bullet to the Head" or the Stonesy "Mossyrock, both of which strap on an urgency commonly reserved for bands on the run. Riffs and rhymes ahead of its previous EP, Feeling the Fall is so good that even the Kinks would tell the Village Green to hold onto the name as long as they'd like. --Scott Holter Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsIt's the new 70's! M. Hallberg | Bay Area, CA | 01/03/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "bought it as a recommendation... very well done cd. I'm not a huge fan of the retro style alternative that's been in the scene lately, but for what it is worth, this is a good example of how to do it right. there is also enough variance in the tracks to keep you listening." A hamlet worth visiting C. Hall | Columbus, OH USA | 01/03/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "For a change, the positive reviews were right - this is a helluva CD. I'm no rock critic so I won't wax poetic here. But trust me (where have you heard that before?), this musical compendium is worth your hard-earned lucre. End of story." Top Notch Band cakewalk | Pennsylvania, USA | 12/15/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is an amazing listen for those who like their bands mysterious, psychedelic, and alternative. These folks make an excellent album though I've yet to see them live. The album is a coherent jaunt through powerful,flowing songs with catchy, deep rythyms. It's a luscious album and well worth the money."
