Norton Disney Music at unsignedbandweb.com Norton Disney 'Less' is the first project by new band, Norton Disney. Inspired by a desire to move away from complex arrangements & electronic sounds, this album is a return to simpler times - not to say that the odd synth doesn't put in an appearance here & there; there is, of course, a place for everything - but mainly the album is a more traditional two guitars, bass, drums, vocals approach.

Don't let that fool you into thinking it's all going to sound the same - far from it. There's as much variety here as you could wish for; from the clunky, recorded-in-a-bedroom sound at the beginning of 'Weightless' the chorus arrives with ear-bending authority. 'Vanilla Sky' is a piano-driven ballad; 'Listen' is a thought-provoking hark back to the love-in days of the 60s; 'Monday' & 'Chemical Dependence' are almost punk songs; 'Darkness' is pure prog rock, and 'Free Spirit' you can make your own mind up on. 'Lullaby' is a slow dreamer which makes you want to play the whole thing over again.

For all its variety, this never sounds like a disparate collection of songs, it's a coherent piece from a serious songwriting team. Even in its thrashier moments, melodies still count for everything.

It's what I would call, for want of a better description, 'indie-pop'. Full of tunes rather than just noise, although the styles vary from ballad to almost punk. http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/play.php?mode=song_hifi&band_id=9191&song_id=19712Fri, 02 Feb 2007 05:14:12 GMT 03:38 Norton Disney, Pop, unsigned, unsignedbandweb no Norton Disney Vanilla Sky - Pop As a stark contrast to Weightless, this is a piano-driven ballad, heartfelt - but still with a little edge to it. http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/play.php?mode=song_hifi&band_id=9191&song_id=19714Fri, 02 Feb 2007 05:57:20 GMT 01:47 Norton Disney, Pop, unsigned, unsignedbandweb no Norton Disney Darkness - Progressive ... and why not a bit of prog-(ish) http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/play.php?mode=song_hifi&band_id=9191&song_id=19715Fri, 02 Feb 2007 06:45:35 GMT 01:49 Norton Disney, Progressive, unsigned, unsignedbandweb
