Boy I sure do loves me some Mustard Seeds. After getting their latest album awhile back I went ahead and got their debut too. It was cheap. It's also wonderful. It's a little less commercial and the harmonies are more up-front, I think. The King's X type down-tuned riffs shine through as well. I think I like this one a little bit more than their latest - mainly because of the less commercial thing. Either one is fantastic though. *sigh* If I were in charge this band would have been huge.
Useless Fact: The band has another album called Red which is inexplicabley more expensive than the debut. Why? Hmmm... Anyway, I'll have to track that one down as well.
Forgive me if I've mentioned this before but have you listened to the lone album by Jughead? It's very Mustard Seed-like. Which is only natural as it's half of The Mustard Seeds and Ty Tabor. Nothing too deep lyrically but just loads of good heavy power pop!
