Pushing Red Buttons - Pushing Red Buttons
LocationNew York City, New York
Initial ImpressionAm I stuck in the eighties?? Where's my day-glo shirt? This is Styx isn't it?
Notable LyricWhat stood out most in my mind was the quoting of "West Side Story" in the intro of the song "Things Are Coming."
FactoidOn the Pushing Red Buttons website, listeners of the band have compared their sound to Pink Floyd, Ben Folds Five and Cheap Trick. (I tend to disagree.)
Serve WithAn eighties mullet and spandex pants.
CommentsI do not believe in being overly critical of a band or artist's music, however I was certainly not exceedingly impressed with this record. Most of the songs ran long and seemed to be a kaleidoscope of many musical genres, which is quite perplexing at times. However with five vocalists (two of which being strictly vocals) this band uses vocal layering and harmonies very well.
