Customer Reviews

Buy it... Buy it now... NOW!
If you're here you obviously have a taste for impassioned, emotive rock. Music with depth, feeling and quality. The kind of music that stays with you past the first listen, past even the 20th listen. The kind of music that becomes an indespensible part of your life.

This is Puressence.

Only Snow Patrol and Radiohead at their best come close. And it's a crime of the greatest magnitude that this band's name doesn't trip off the tongue as readily as "OK Computer" "Run" or (God help us...) "Coldplay" when those "best of..." lists come round.

This, their fourth album, eschews some of the open and melancholic soundtracks of previous releases and ups the ampage to produce a superb, almost wall-of-sound effect. It washes over you with James's voice a shining diamond in the barrage. It's a unique voice, to be sure, but utterly spellbinding.

Please, if you're even a little tempted, just take five minutes and look at the reviews and stars for Puressence's previous three albums.

They are:
Puressence
Only Forever
Planet Helpless

This is not advertising or sloganeering, this band have been the BEST band in the country for almost ten years. Be warned though, if you buy one you will buy all four.

Another classic!
While bands like The Stone Roses are hailed for producing one great album, Puressence produce classic album after classic album and remain virtually unknown. Whether this will change with the release of this album is anyone's guess, but it's clear from the first crash of windswept opener 'Moonbeam' that this is another classic. Puressence excell at epic despair and widescreen emotion and make bands like Coldplay suddennly seem...well, a bit silly. Buy this, let it grow, you won't regret it.

The Best 'Unknown' Band Ever
Five years on from their last offering, Failsworth's finest return with another set of blistering tunes, anthemic choruses and songs that are just instantly memorable. From the commerciality of singles Pallisades & Drop Down, to the harmonic beauty of Sold Unseen & Brainwaves, through to the power-laden Bitter Pill and Life Comes Down Hard, this album should be on everybody's indie hitlist for 2007. If you like this album, then the band's back catalogue is essential listening. Once heard, James Mudriczki's quite beautiful voice will haunt you forever.
