Bastards of Melody

New Jersey’s Bastards of Melody filters its jangly power pop through themes of soured passionate relationships and an excellent night out. The group features Paul Crane (lead vocals and acoustic guitar), guitarist Expenses Zafiros, and bassist Patrick O’Keefe, and drummer Jeff Prosetti. When Crane found Shirt City, NJ, back 1993 and got a day work at EMI Information in Manhattan, a profession like a musician wasn’t in the forefront of his thoughts. He was going right through a divorce and modifying culturally towards the variations between existence in his previous hometown Miami as well as the needs of NEW YORK. Annoyed by the seeming insufficient opportunities before him, Crane taken care of immediately an ad within the Town Voice to try out acoustic guitar with a Shirt garage punk music group known as Postpone the Unavoidable. After honing his abilities in Postpone the Unavoidable, he became a member of his PTI bandmates in the past due ’90s to create Bastards of Melody, whose music could be infectiously whimsical like Fountains of Wayne and self-deprecatingly funny within the vein of Cheap Technique, but gleam large amount of good-time raucous energy within the band’s acoustic guitar solos ? la AC/DC and Lynyrd Skynyrd. After liberating a six-song EP, Maintain It Down! (Ransom Information), in early 1999, Bastards of Melody focused on writing fresh songs because of its self-titled debut Compact disc in 2000. Their music “Joanie AVOID BEING Wreckless With My Center” tells the storyplot of the jilted fan. “NOT Fine” details an enchanting breakup. “Vibe” is approximately venturing out and having a great time out. And “Mass media Queen” ironically undercuts a would-be starlet in a radio place in NY.
