Our Take

STRANGEWAYS Complete Recordings Vol. 1 is the musical equivalent of stumbling upon a hidden gem in the cluttered racks of a vintage record store. This compilation album brings together the best of STRANGEWAYS' early work, showcasing their unique blend of indie rock, Britpop, and a touch of pure sonic chaos.

From the infectious energy of "Dance of the Dodos" to the dreamy haze of "Roses in the Rain", each track on this collection is a snapshot of a band on the cusp of greatness. The raw, unpolished sound of these recordings only adds to the charm, giving listeners a glimpse into the DIY ethos that fueled STRANGEWAYS' early career.

Lead singer Johnny O'Dell's vocals are a highlight throughout, with his hypnotic croon weaving its way through each song like a silk thread. The band's tight musicianship and knack for catchy hooks are on full display, making it impossible not to tap your foot or bob your head along to the infectious rhythms.

While some tracks may veer into experimental territory, such as the cacophonous "Pigeons in the Park", it's all part of the wild ride that is STRANGEWAYS' music. Fans of bands like Blur, The Stone Roses, and The Smiths will find plenty to love here, as the band effortlessly blends elements of each into their own unique sound.

In conclusion, STRANGEWAYS Complete Recordings Vol. 1 is a must-listen for any music lover looking to discover their new favourite band. So dust off your record player, pour yourself a cuppa, and let STRANGEWAYS take you on a journey through the bustling streets of British indie rock. Cheers!
