Janvier Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Their sound has evolved, they're more mature now but in the mid-to-late nineties I would listen to "Popular" on a daily basis. Their last CD, Lucky, was also good and showed the direction they were heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 I like Lucky but don't find myself revisiting it as much as The Weight Is A Gift (my favorite of theirs) or Let Go. I should probably give their next to most recent album, If I Had A Hi-Fi, another chance especially since I haven't listened to it in a while. I remember when "Popular" was all over the MTV but I honestly didn't pay them much attention back then. It was until a friend started talking them up circa The Weight Is A Gift that I really sat up and took notice. I think it was hearing "Concrete Bed" on XM's XMU channel that really cinched it for me. I still need to go back and catch up on their albums pre-Let Go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janvier Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Ever heard of Better than Ezra? Might have been at the time I purchased High/Low that I also got Deluxe. I haven't heard their songs in a while but at the time Ezra and Nada Surf sounded very similar. On Deluxe they had a song called "Good". So here we are in 2012 and Nada Surf have a new album while Better than Ezra has become a rather obscure and unknown band from the nineties.

Jahfin Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 I remember Better Than Ezra but I can't say I was ever really a fan. Looks like their last album (an EP actually) came just this past Fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
