The Vines

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

When the Vines burst onto the post-grunge celebrity scene in late 2001, the British press was first in line to claim them for their very own. The band was quickly compared to Nirvana while being thrown into the swarm of impacting acts like the Hives, Haven, and Doves. Still, they weren't just hype. Craig Nicholls (vocals/guitar), Patrick Matthews (bass/vocals), and David Oliffe (drums) were a tight-knit bunch eager to rock. Founded in their native Sydney, Australia, in the late '90s, the Vines met in high school while working at a neighborhood McDon...[more]

They may be hyped by the British press as no less than the second coming of Nirvana, but on "Highly Evolved," the Vines offer something more interesting than yet another trawl through flannel-clad angst. True, the addictively short "Highly Evolved"'s primal beat and chunky guitars are certainly post-grunge, but not in the boringly earnest, imitative way that bands such as Silverchair were ? the song's sludgy sexiness and tight structure also recall the '60s garage punk that shaped bands like Nirvana and Mud   [ read more ]

With over 2 million records sold worldwide, multiple modern rock hits and one of the most licensed acts in the last 2 years (including an iPod commercial) The Vines return with their third studio album Vision Valley With so many extraordinary highlights, there were times when the real reason for The Vines' success - the songs - became somewhat obscured. The stories accompanying The Vines were of a rapid rise, drama, press attention, massive touring and a fascination with what was going on inside Crai   [ read more ]

The Vines' "Winning Days" -- the follow-up to the Australian quartet's 2002 hit debut "Highly Evolved" -- finds the group back with producer Rob Schnapf (Beck, Guided by Voices, Elliott Smith), revealing a more melodically textured set of songs that retain all of the band's infamously primal edge. The positive title of "Winning Days" is perhaps the first clue that the album is taking a slightly warmer approach than its gritty predecessor. The instruments sound like they did in Bearsville -- electric guita   [ read more ]

After 2004's lackluster Winning Days and Craig Nicholls' subsequent breakdown, it certainly seemed like the Vines were never to be heard from again. Surprisingly, though, the band persevered: Nicholls was diagnosed with and treated for the neurobiological disorder Asperger's Syndrome, and guitarist Ryan Griffiths and drummer Hamish Rosser stuck by him (bassist Patrick Matthews left to play with Youth Group). The trio recorded Vision Valley in a few small studios around Sydney, and   [ read more ]
