 Surprisingly great indie rock in the veign of Death Cab For Cutie - chances are you'll love it! - 4.5 stars January 10, 2006
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
It was only upon the recommendation of a friend that I even found out about this band, but I'm glad I did! It's not entirely original, but chances are you won't really care. It's basically straight-up indie rock which somehow manages to sound different and unique yet familiar at the same time. The singer does a pretty good job - he doesn't fit the music perfectly, but I think most people will like him. What's great is that the lyrics are interesting (though hard to make out), and that the musicianship is fantastic. Every song here is good, too, as they definitely can make a good hook. I wouldn't call it a classic, but it comes close. Indie and pop rock fans will most likely really enjoy this album. Highly recommended!br /br /Highlights include:br /the entire album!
if you don't absolutely love this album, you are dead to me. December 14, 2004

I have tried to expose many people to this album, failing miserably with every attempt. I don't know what it is about that is inaccessible to a great many people, but if you know anything about music you know that this is one of the most original and sonically pleasant and lyrically fantastic albums in a long time. I can't think of another album that is as complete and flawless as this thing. br /br /You just have to hear it. Everybody should at least give it a try, the first time i heard "Death," I think a piece of my heart fell off and disintegrated...never to be found again. Simply amazing.
Great Band, Great Album August 19, 2004

I live in Santa Rosa, Ca, Velvet Teen's home town, and have had the pleasure of seeing them live. Straight up, Their music is incredible. This cd is an amazing piece of work that contains incredible lyrics and entrancing music. Some people have comapared it to Radiohead or Coldplay, but Velvet Teen stands in a class of the their own. Every song has a great melody that reverbates from the cd player. The standout track is radiapathy, a catchy beautiful song that can be played over and over again. This is a rare find of a cd, and with "elysium" taking off, i'm sure you'll hear from them soon.
Simply Amazing November 23, 2003
The Velvet Teen's "Out of the Fierce Parade" is a CD that rarely leaves my stereo. It has music for every mood and every moment- whether battling the emo blues or feeling simply fine. Some of the most beautiful music you will ever hear, and some of the most thought-provoking lyrics. Somewhere between Radiohead and Coldplay lies The Velvet Teen: walking a fine line with grace, precision, and soul.

Let me add my voice to the others here in fervently affirming that this album is incredibly, incredibly solid. It just doesn't get old. From the faster songs to the slower songs, it all flows together so beautifully. pThe Velvet Teen has mastered melody. The vocal part of every song on the CD will beg you to sing along. While it is largely guitar-based, the band also employs a great deal of keyboard on this one. Judah Nagler's unique, mellow, and often falsetto voice gives each song enough hook alone, as does the simple-yet-innovative-instrumentation. The combination of those two elements makes for an irresistable art-pop masterpiece. pLyrical content is overwhelmingly inspired as well. You will find no sappy love songs or silly "you broke my heart" songs here. Instead, the songs deal in great depth with various human passions. For example, "The Prize Fighter" describes the arduous journey to success from the perspective of a contender, "Four Story Tantrum" describes the melancholy and lonely existence of a girl with whom the narrator is apparently taken, and the slowest song on the CD, "Red Like Roses," is sort of an ode to breaking free of the mundane, to self-exploration, and to self-expression.pI can pretty much promise you that you will love this CD, and that there is no need to sample it first, but I must warn that one (and only one) person that I met said that he didn't like Judah's voice so he didn't like the band. I love his voice, but based on this anecdote, I would suggest you at least get a feel for his voice before buying the CD.pLONG LIVE PEOPLE NAMED JUDAH
