Better than the last one
I bought Mystery#1, the first album by The Contrast, on a recommendation from "A Music Fan" in Austin TX on the Amazon site. I loved it!! It had songs with cool guitars and cracking vocal harmonies and few fillers.
All I can say about Wireless Days is that it is an incredible improvement on the original. It has a much cleaner, professional sound that is not too clinical. The harmonies sound like they were done by the Beach Boys in places and the songs...well a much better collection. Elvis Costello, REM, Television, Wire...all are brought to mind when you listen to this album, excellent, indeed. I would recommend this CD to anyone.
I only have one question, where the hell is Peterborough?
compelling underground revivalists
This latest release from New York City's ultra hip Rainbow Quartz label sees The Contrast skittering wildly on the heels of the underground garage revival. Clattering coasters and psychedelic strats are the soundtrack to the new rock revolution. Wireless Days is on the new road to retro immortality and the surf's up now. Don't miss the wave, it's happening now and coming in fast. Compelling and brilliant.
Base camp for the climb to musical greatness!
having worked my way back from the latest awesome release (Forget to Tell the Time out in 2005) by the UK's finest musical export to the US this is really where it all started to really get going for the band. Sonically its less developed than the two CD's that follow but all the basic ingredients of what has come to make a Contrast tour de force are there - Dave Reid's great songs, unique voice and guitar playing. I starting with 'Fade Back In' and then got hooked for life by 'Forget To Tell the Time' However 'Wireless Days' stands up against the later releases because the songs are so strong. Can't wait for 2006 and the next one!
