Review: The Rosemarys "The Rosemarys"


Sorry guys, I just don't get this one at all. The Rosemarys put out this self-titled release on RCA in 1994, during the hey day of hip new wave rock and psychedelic bands like Primal Scream, the Soup Dragons, and Stone Roses. The Rosemarys play benign "fuzz" rock that lacks direction, and the front man sounds like he is singing underwater while wearing concrete shoes. Nothing memorable here...

The Rosemarys made a very minor mark by getting their track "Catherine" on the soundtrack to the comedy PCU, a movie just about as memorable...

their first album, "providence", is a lot better.
on that one they show influences of madchester and teenage fanclub, too.
