March 19: Cast - All Change
Home: Liverpool, England
Can't let international week go by without a Liverpudlian band, huh? Actually, other than the Beatles, Liverpool hasn't contributed a great deal to music. Cast were sort of the Candlebox in the mid-'90s Britpop fad, coming in behind Oasis, Blur, Verve, Suede, Supergrass, Ash, etc. etc. etc. Their big problem is that they rip off the Beatles shamelessly, and not the good Beatles songs: this entire album sounds like early songs like "Love Me Do" played on modern instruments, except for "Finetime," and "Walkaway," the two reasons I haven't tried to sell this CD at Waterloo down in Austin.
