THE REVIEWS ARE IN! "Singer/guitarist Jason Morse and drummer Dave Foreman do their parts exceptionally well, lighting up the songs with tremendous energy and heavy-metal strength. " >> Barry Andrews - Review Centre UK "Free from sugarcoating and major-label interference, indie rockers 2ND are pumped with the spirit of generations of underground hard rock, from the Sonics to Nirvana. ...Morse and Foreman are already a force to be reckoned with. " >> Michael Sutton - CDReviews.com "2ND is not for poseurs. If you're into authentic garage rock, this is it. It's loud, energetic, and ferocious. It will bite you." >> Adam Harrington - Whisperin & Hollerin "2ND delivers a different kind of retro rush, an '80s revival of the underground kind." >> Kyrby Raine - Ink19 "...singer/guitarist Jason Morse and drummer Dave Foreman capture the spirit of Bleach-era Nirvana with the right amount of grit and hard-rock catchiness. " >> www.shotgunreviews.com "...2ND make simple statements with the power of a 747." >> Karla Ash - www.thewigfitsallheads.com PRESS INFORMATION 2ND Two/n/Dee "Directly in the path of organized ignorance" J. Morse (guitar/vocals) Dave Foreman (drums) 2ND was born when Los Angeles musician J. Morse wanted to take elements of rock, punk, melodic metal and instill it with his own individualistic vision to the purest elements -- a two-piece creation that is at first listen visceral, melodic, innovative and evocative. Teaming up with drummer Dave Foreman, who had honed his chops as a noted studio and touring guitarist for such artists as Snoop Dogg, Jennifer Lopez, Boys to men, George Clinton and Anthony Hamilton, Morse found a means to bring all his year of songwriting into a band that is creatively exploratory, accessible and instantly compelling. From the soft to white-knuckle dynamics of album opener "Heavy Heavy Metal" to the searing driving blissed-out frenzy of "Cheap Perfume," 2ND builds sonic landscapes that hit you with intensity of an technicolor supernova. On songs like the instrumental "The Calling," volcanic, textured layers and crescendos fuse together over Morse's beatific, swelling, droning guitar playing and Foreman's airtight and poly rhythmic drumming. Recorded by engineer and Grammy winning producer Bruce Bouillet, who had just come off his big win with Motorhead welcomed the chance to work with Dave and Jason on "Directly in the path of organized ignorance". 2ND welcomes the listener to a sound that is innovative, evolving and accessible. Vying for new heavy melodic landscapes, 2ND will deliver the listener to these shores. contact info: www.2NDTHEBAND.com email: feedback@2ndtheband.com |
