jellyfish - bellybutton, spilt milk
i love em. this is the return of the band who are not afraid to sing proper pop songs with proper instruments and make the listener glad to be alive. jellyfish take all aspects of classic rock, mix it with the style of the beatles and turn it into something special. the first disc is classic and spawned the term powerpop. the second disc saw one of the members leave (jason falkner - went onto greater things on his own!!) and this gave the remaining members free reign to go off and make their queen-sounding fantasies true. admittedly the over stretched harmonies, the 'everything but the kitchen sink' production can grate after a while but just when you thing you've had enough they pull out another quality gem. for sheer perfection though you really should get bellybutton :-)
