The last album by the original lineup of Defiance before an extended hiatus, Nothing Lasts Forever has a dispirited, defeatist tone -- even more so than usual for this brand of metal-tinged post-hardcore punk -- in both the album title and songs like the sneering "Kill the Bastards" and the churning thrash of "It's Never Gonna Change." At its best, particularly on the pounding but surprisingly catchy "Don't Want It" (which recalls the likes of Slaughter & the Dogs or other pub-rooted '70s U.K. punk bands) and the uplifting, passionate "Nothing Worth Dying For," Nothing Lasts Forever is Defiance at the peak of their game. Unfortunately, the album's not particularly even, with headbanging anthems like the outstandingly rabble-rousing "You Don't Know" next to cuts like a limp, weedy remake of the Motörhead/Girlschool collaboration "Emergency," making the album an often outstanding but occasionally frustrating temporary sendoff to a promising band. ~ Stewart Mason

| | Turbonegro Scandinavian Leather CD (2003)
Nothing Lasts Forever album
$10.35 Scandinavian Leather, the denim Norsemen's fifth album, was without a doubt their most eagerly anticipated. Having split up in bizarre fashion not long after the milestone that was Apocalypse Dudes, the band rose victoriously with the 2002 Res-Erection Tour and found that it had gained a substantial, insanely dedicated international fan base -- the Turbojugend. They were now attracting broad attention for the first time in their lengthy career.
Scandinavian Leather continues very much in the same vein as Dudes, albeit with touches of added sophistication. The songs are still delightfully anthemic and the ever-clever lyrics revolve around themes such as copulation, violence, and outsiderness. Although you can hear some fairly camp, '80s metal-esque vocal capers from Hank von Helvete, it's mainly the production, courtesy of guitar god Euroboy, that sets this album apart ...
| | Briggs Back To Higher Ground CD (2006)
Nothing Lasts Forever CD music
$11.59 The Briggs come from the punk school of bands like the Clash, Rancid and Dropkick Murphys. So it should come as no surprise that brothers Jason LaRocca and Joey LaRocca conjure up large, meaty singalong choruses with tight punk riffs throughout. There's a lot of energy and intensity held in each ditty, especially with the rousing "Let Them Know" that is sure to cause spilled beer and a great deal of fist-pumping. From there, ...

| | End Of Fashion Untitled CD (2006) (Import) Japan
Nothing Lasts Forever songs
$32.85 Pop/rock quartet End of Fashion had already become superstars in their native Australia before testing American waters with their 2006 self-titled debut. A streamlined mix of garage rock and pop, the disc sets itself skillfully apart from the mainstream through simple but distinct choices in song architecture and instrumentation, reminiscent of alternative Britpop bands like the Stone Roses and Oasis. For instance, twinkling electronic chimes on the slow-dance "Seize the Day" and stop/start guitar work on the up-tempo "Anything Goes (Alan Moulder Remix)" inject otherwise conventional rock songs with extra layers of creative texture, making the music dynamic and complex without compromising accessibility. While straight-ahead rock is full of singers who do little more than shout on key, lead vocalist Justin Burford runs the gamut from raspy yowling to beautifully nuanced falsetto. He harnesses his highly expressive timbre with subtle control, using ...

Nothing Lasts Forever music CDs
$15.39 When the Jam kickstarted the mod revival in the U.K. at the tail-end of the '70s, there were only a few bands worthy to follow in their shadow: Squire, Secret Affair, the Lambrettas, and the Chords. While the first three bands had the songs and the style, it was the Chords who brought the Power with a capital P. Like Weller and Co., the Chords had the snarl of the Who, the quintessential British lyrical charm of the Kinks, and the sweaty energy of the punk scene. The Chords' main songwriter and guitarist, Chris Pope, penned songs that were anthemic, angry, and poignant at the same time. Though their career was brief (the 20 songs on this compilation were released within a two-year time span), there was no doubt that they were releasing music that was built to last. Singles like the glorious "Maybe Tomorrow," "Something's Missing," "Now It's Gone," and "The British Way of Life" still sound as vibrant and powerful in 2008 as they did in "the good ol' days". And while less focused, B-sides like "Don't Go Back," "I Don't Wanna Know," and "Hey Girl" are still great fun. This disc also includes rarities like unissued tracks originally meant for singles but canceled for various reasons. Though not absolutely essential, you can also enjoy the A- and B-sides of the band's last two singles, released after vocalist Billy Hassett had been replaced by former Vibrators vocalist Kip. If you don't own the band's sole album, So Far Away (reissued on CD with bonus tracks by Captain Oi), then this is the best place to start your Chords collection. For those who already own the album, then there are a handful of tracks on The Mod Singles Collection that are exclusive to this release, which is reason enough ...
