New Boy

New Boy (1994) more music like this

by The Connells

This EP contains live and studio versions of "New Boy," a bittersweet tune from 1994's Ring album, delivered in the veteran group's typically winsome manner. (Sample lyric: Sometimes I get the feeling things won't fall apart/sometimes I get the feeling things seem pretty nice/then again sometimes I'd like to leave you twice.) There are also a ...

Still Life

Still Life (1998) more music like this

by The Connells

The pop odyssey of the Connells continues with this very strong effort. The catchy hooks grab you on first listen, but they are backed up with enough meat to give the album staying power. This is power-pop with an unusually relaxed character: a musical contradiction that somehow works beautifully. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide

Ring

Ring (1993) more music like this

by The Connells

After scoring a college radio hit with "Stone Cold Yesterday" from 1990's One Simple Word, the Connells followed up with their strongest effort to date, the radio-ready Ring. While muddy production and underdeveloped songs occasionally plagued their earlier releases, Ring is an album aimed squarely at the mainstream, and is a clear attempt to pick ...

Weird Food & Devastation

Weird Food & Devastation (1996) more music like this

by The Connells

Weird Food & Devastation follows the pattern of the Connells' previous album, Ring, by adding harder-edged guitars to their ringing guitar pop. The Connells aren't able to come up with a set of memorable songs for Weird Food, but the album nevertheless remains a pleasurable listen, especially for fans of Southern jangle-pop (R.E.M., Let's Active) ...

One Simple Word

One Simple Word (1990) more music like this

by The Connells

In the course of four albums, The Connells have evolved their own style within the jangling guitar-rock sound so prevalent in alternative bands of the '80s. Mainly it's been a matter of writing more distinctive songs and having them sung by guitarist George Huntley so they sink in. This is their first album to cross over from the category of ...

Boylan Heights

Boylan Heights (1987) more music like this

by The Connells

Boylan Heights, the Connells' second album, shows a great improvement over its predecessor. With help from producer Mitch Easter, the band effectively combines Southern rock's jangly guitars with Celtic influences. One of the more distinctive, though generally overlooked, college rock albums of the late '80s. Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide

Fun & Games

Fun & Games (1989) more music like this

by The Connells

Fun & Games marks a slight dip in quality. The songwriting is still top-notch, but at times it's covered up by their new, heavier sound. Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide

Old-School Dropouts (2001) more music like this

by The Connells

Like 1998's Still Life, Old-School Drop Outs continues the Connells' move away from the more experimental nature of Weird Food and Devastation. This album, self-released after their long, fruitful relationship with the TVT label finally came to an end, finds the Connells building on their classic sound, a world of wistful lyrics, strong guitars, ...

Billboard Top Modern Rock Tracks 1990 (1990) more music like this

by Various Artists

Billboard Top Modern Rock Tracks: 1990 is an uneven but enjoyable 10-track sampler of several of the biggest modern rock and college-radio hits of 1990. Unlike other editions in the Top Modern Rock Tracks series, 1990 actually conveys the feeling of the year fairly well, combining classic tracks like the Sundays' "Here's Where the Story Ends," and ...

Kuschelrock, Vol. 9 (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

Although the German-import price might be prohibitive for some, Kuschelrock Vol. 9 is a pretty good double-disc collection of mainstream pop hits circa the early '90s. Some singles were more popular than others, naturally, but they generally fit well together, and it would be impossible to find even the biggest of these songs together on a ...
