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 ]

As uneven as the Vines' albums could be, they were always a first-rate singles band. Craig Nicholls and crew's knack for cranking out sunny pop and abrasive but melodic rock is undeniable, and The Best of the Vines delivers their singles and the tracks that sounded like singles. The collection begins with the big hits ("Get Free," "Ride," and "Highly Evolved"), then shows off some of the Vines' best tangents, like the irrepressibly bouncy "Factory" and the lush balladry of {&"Vision    [ 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 ]

Melodia offers a short 'n' simple version of the Vines' freewheeling sound, interspersing the fuzz-guitar freakouts that launched the band in 2001 with the measured, melodic songs that help differentiate the Vines from other members of the garage rock revival. Like 2006's Vision Valley, it's also clouded by the specter of Craig Nicholls' mental disorder, which splintered the band's lineup in 2004 and threw its ability to tour into jeopardy. Confining himself to the studio should be good fo   [ read more ]

Two years after their single "Get Free" seemed to be everywhere in one form or another, the Vines returned with Winning Days. A textbook case of the sophomore slump, the album lacks the hooks, melodies, and enthusiasm that made Highly Evolved a promising debut. On that album, it seemed that the Vines were up for anything, even if the overexposure of their singles and singer Craig Nicholls' bratty behavior soured opinions of the Vines, and Highly Evolved in retrospect.
