Runners In The Nerved World

The Sidekicks

It's possible for a band to emulate the sound of other bands without sounding like a cheap knockoff. The Sidekicks very obviously emulate bands like Band Of Horses on this album, lead singer Steve Ciolek sounds almost exactly like Ben Bridwell, so much so that I had to Google to make sure that this wasn't some new project that Bridwell popped into. But this doesn't sound like some poor Band Of Horses imitation, but rather it sounds like a band influenced by them, and maintaining their own identity. This sounds like the kind of stuff that got Band Of Horses big in the first place, high, big-but-in-a-small-way vocals with thick guitars and sweeping, catchy melodies. The Sidekicks execute it all way while still maintaining their own identity, and that makes for a really enjoyable album. [First added to this chart: 11/17/2017]

@dbz - yea dude, the new Atkins is pretty sweet too.

@mecca - I think I need to relisten to the U.S. Girls album, I liked it a lot, might eventually crack the top-100.

Man, you put some serious work into this. All those informative notes. I think the bulk of these that I know would fall into my own honorable mentions chart if I made one. Was surprised Sleater Kinney and US Girls couldn't crack your top 100.
