Against Me!

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

The roots of Against Me!'s rousing punk-folk sound lie in Tom Gabel's guitar-and-stool troubadourship around his native Gainesville, FL, beginning in 1997. The then 17-year-old Gabel performed as a solo act wherever anyone would have him, drawing much influence from early acoustic protest music. The band around him would eventually solidify by 2001 -- including guitarist James Bowman, drummer Warren Oakes, and bassist Andrew Seward -- and get considerably louder as punk bands often do. But there would always be some anarchism and Billy Bragg in the r...[more]

VINYL FORMAT. When Against Me! recorded As the Eternal Cowboy, they recorded acoustic AND electric versions of several songs! They had a really tough time deciding which versions to put on the album, because they liked them all. In the end, they decided to put the alternate versions out as two singles. The album versions of these two songs are both acoustic! This record has an elaborate die-cut, fold-out cover designed by artist Chris Norris.

Against Me! are simply brilliant. Their honest and raw songs of inspiration and frustration highlight some of the best personal and political DIY punk. It is melodic, edgy, and straightforward. The songs on this CD are from their first 7"s; you also get two bonus tracks from the same period, which have a similar feel as those original songs. This recording features just two people, which enhances the warm acoustic feel and highlights the basic goodness of this band.

Searching for a Former Clarity opens with a slow-to-start song that picks up within a minute, then follows with "Miami" -- a churning song with a little bit of horn flare. Singer/guitarist Tom Gabel gets a little acoustic during the passionate song "Joy," but immediately changes tones in   [ read more ]

There is a legion of Against Me! fans who want only for the band's music to sound exactly as it did on Reinventing Axl Rose-- scrappy punk/folk and nothing else. But with as talented a songwriter as Tom Gabel leading the way, it's ridiculous to think that the band would be satisfied complying. Growth is necessary; change is inevitable. In the case of New Wave, different doesn't automatically mean bad. As their first album on major label Sire, it's a straight-up rock record. Especially thanks t   [ read more ]
