No edge....Not a huge problem.......2007-03-20

A bit down the page one user remarked how this album is missing that ever elusive "edge". I'm not so sure that Pheonix are aiming for any edge, I would venture to say that they are going for something "smooth". To me, these guys seem pretty deliberate with their delivery, and their lead singer, Thomas Mars, is good at what he does regardless of whether you like it or not. His voice is the aural equivalent of velour. By that I mean smooth and cheesy at times, but very pleasing. You must judge things in context. I wouldn't like his voice in anything rock or folky, but when you are listening to this mellow, laid back sort of funk, it is pure gold.

I like this album a lot and I absolutely love their newest album.

GIve Phoenix a try..........2007-02-24

A musically inclined friend of mine let me listen to this group, and I have not been able to get it out of my head... I went out and immediatly looked to buy it. I feel like I've been missing out all this time, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their sound. Being a HUGE Jamiroquai fan it has that vibe but it's a bit more mellow, and like another reviewer said it IS soulful. Definitley high up there on my list of favorites.

Comparing Phoenix .......2006-11-02

Postal Service? Not a bit. Alphabetical was like having a smoke after a long day. It just makes you feel good. An aquaintance used to argue with me till red in the face that Muse and Radiohead sound the same. Not even in the same category. My poor guy remark of the day is, if your reading Abercrombie & Fitch for musical opinions, or anything for that matter, you are heading down a tiresome road.

Very Good 2nd Album.......2006-03-15

Phoenix is one of my favorite bands because of the way that their songs make you feel. You feel better after just hearing a few minutes worth of their music. Alphabetical continues right where their first album United left off.

1. Everything is Everything- My favorite song on the album. Pop perfection. 10/10
2. Run Run Run- Another great song by this amazing French band. 9.5/10
3. I'm An Actor- A Darker sounding tune than the usual phenix song. Still very good. 8.5/10
4. Love For Granted- A slower song which has great backing vocals. 8/10
5. Victim Of The Crime- Another standout track by Phoenix. I like the lyrics on this one a lot. 9.5/10
6. (You Can Blame It On) Anybody- My favorite harmonies of the album are on this song. Great 9/10
7. Congratulations- An instrumental track which is pretty sweet, but i'm not gonna rate it because it is only a minute long.
8. If It's Not With You- Very chill track. Just soak it in. 8.5/10
9. Holdin' On Together- A disco sounding song which has good lyrics and cool synthesizer sounds. 9/10
10. Alphabetical- The title track is the longest one on the album and is very very good. It even has a hidden instrumental sequence at the end. A great way to end a fantastic album. 9.25/10

Phoenix is definitely the best French Pop band going right now. Their 3rd album comes out on May 15th of this year, get excited.

Overall: 9/10, 5 Stars

...still waiting for them to sing "I like girls who wear Abercrombie and Fitch".......2005-10-30

Yes, it's mellow, yes it's easily accessible.
Yes, these French boys know their electronica.
Yes, I can see how people can compare it to Postal Service.
No, that doesn't make it good.
The thing this album is missing is that elusive, intangible "edge"
Ben Gibbard's voice provides the edge for Postal Service, the little tang to help you swallow the sweet.
This is pure fluff, nothing more. Lyrically it's worthless. That's okay if the music can stand alone, but it can't. These guys' voices are so sickly sweet and overproduced, I couldn't see them anywhere else but on American R&B radio. They need to provide the tang but they are only more sugar. Too much sugar makes you sick. And sleepy.
If you want some nice nap music, some background for a coffee shop or an elevator, you've found your band. Sign em up.
If you want to be able to differentiate any one song from the last ten you heard, don't buy this album.

Buy this EP right now and play it through high-quality headphones pressed to your gonads for your unconceived children!.......2006-05-27

Witty, personal, tragic, intelligent, politically incisive and at times bleakly ontological lyrics influenced by everyone from Kurt Cobain to Jean-Luc Godard aren't even the biggest reason to buy this groundbreaking first offering by a band that has already influenced my own work along with that of many other excellent, cutting-edge musicians on both sides of Amerika. Buy this E.P. because it completely rocks, and it goes above and beyond your radio-fed low expectations of what rock can mean. TAO have the potential to transform not only how music sounds in America, but also our notions of what songs can be about, in a way that just feels natural and right. Imagine watching David Bowie and Liz Phair make out with Jenna Jameson on acid, and then Jenna slowly removes her dark sunglasses and beckons to you as she tucks them away in the tight pocket of her thin white shirt. It's like that, only Michael Jordan and Jackie Chan are there cheering you on. This little compact disk will inspire you to change your taste in music, change your Occupation, change your shorts, and change your life. Put down that Shotglass, zip up your fly and act now, before it's too late to say you liked them before they were cool.

Peace,

Second String

Gavin Dunaway is my baby daddy!.......2005-10-19

Gavin may be a deadbeat dad, but he was a surprisingly tender lover.
No, seriously, The Alphabetical Order is a great band out of DC. And since I went to high school with Gavin, some might accuse me of being a biased source. Not true! I'm always looking for a reason to drag Gavin down, but unfortunately, TAO's music doesn't give me much of an excuse to. The songs are catchy and well-played, each song has its own style, and their live shows are always a good time.
They're playing Iota in Arlington, Va. this Saturday, Oct. 22. If you ask Gavin nicely, he'll show you his piercing.
All right, Dunaway, I pimped myself out for you. You know what I need now. *wink*

Album Description

“The AB CD.”

Every once in a while there comes along a truly unique idea in children's entertainment, and the AB CD happens to fall into that category. The brainchild of Phil Yeend, a recording engineer/producer who has worked with the likes of Elvis Presley, John Williams, Clint Eastwood and Pete Fountain, the AB CD is a compilation of traditional nursery rhymes sung in alphabetical order by a group of young children. Now 27 nursery rhymes sung by children doesn't sound like such an original idea until you add new and unusual interpretations and some of the best session players in the industry backing. up the singers. Yeend managed to put together an impressive roster of string, horn and rhythm musicians, under the direction of composer Mauro Bruno, that adds a wonderful depth to the familiar lyrics.

None of the young singers, also known as AnyBody's Clubhouse Kids, had any previous professional experience, a bonus when you consider how reminiscent their sweet voices are of childhood days. They truly could be anybody's kids -- a plus for the preschoolers for whom the CD is intended -- it could be their friends singing, and it's easy for them to join in and sing along.

Beginning with the familiar Alphabet Song and ending with the lively and original Zig Zag, the AB CD has unique renditions of many nursery favorites, including “It's Raining, It's Pouring,” “Little Bo-Peep,” and “Rock-A-Bye, Baby,” as well as some not-so-familiar tunes like “Elsie Marley” and “North Wind.”

An inspiring collection, the AB CD has already won an Award of Excellence from the Film Advisory Board.
