(4 Customer Reviews)
Days Of The New frontman Travis Meeks is probably pretty sick of being told how much older he sounds on tape. Judging from the band's self-titled debut, the deep-voiced 18 year-old has apparently been brooding for a lot longer than he's been shaving. He could send Scott Weiland and James Hetfield running back to their growling coach, while his lyrics explore youthful ennui with uncommon maturity.
"Solitude" moves from a spacey, angelic intro to a sinister vocal trade-off, while "Touch, Peel And Stand" juxtaposes attention-grabbing off-time accents with a slow, languorous chorus. Produced by Scott Litt (R.E.M), the sonic foundation of DAYS OF THE NEW is made up of acoustic guitars, close, double-tracked vocal harmonies, and a straightforward, powerful rhythm section. Guitarist Todd Whitener contributes acrobatic lead work, contrasting perfectly with DAYS OF THE NEW's slow, melancholic burn.

Days Of The New Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)   stand alone band It is sad whhat has happened to travis.Hopefuly he can come back and be even more creative.there sound is all alone. Submitted by mike (Dayton Ohio) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Without question the best DOTN CD The two best songs that Meeks ever wrote are on this CD and they're the first two tracks. These two songs are followed by two more songs that are almost equally as good. Submitted by Brock (Brockoton) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Orange
Orange is the first CD from Days Of The New and I really love it.. but I honestly can't pick a favorite out of the three albums out. Stand out tracks on Orange, aside from the classics Touch, Peel And Stand and Shelf In The Room are Whimsical, Now, Solitude, Cling and Where I Stand. On most of the songs (But not Freak or Cling!), Travis is a bit more mellow then on the other two CDs, and the music is mellower too, focusing on acoustic guitar. But that doesn't mean this album doesn't rock! You just have to listen to Freak or Face Of The Earth to know that it sure does.
If I was forced to take just ONE album with me onto a desert Island it would probably be Green.. but you'd have to pry Orange from my hands first :) BUY IT!!! Submitted by laikaskye (AZ, USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
GREAT ALBUM MUST BUY!! Everybody should buy this album. Everysong is well mastered, especially if you love guitar. Even though Travis is the only one left on the new CD, i'm sure it'll be as good as this one. Submitted by a reviewer (OKC, OK) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

Purchase Days Of The New CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Pearl Jam Yield CD (1998)
Days Of The New album
$7.59 "Do The Evolution" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance and Best Short Form Music Video. YIELD was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Recording Package.
Nay-sayers and trends be damned. Pearl Jam's follow-up to 1996's NO CODE continues down the path of aggressive rock and roll, existential musings and musical experimentation. This isn't your older brother's grunge. Opening with the hard-driving "Brain Of J," YIELD goes from a punky swagger representing man's arrogance in asserting his lofty place on the food chain ("Do The Evolution") to a free jazz approach and a disembodied Vedder vocal questioning the meaning of life ("Push Me, Pull Me").
Most of YIELD continues to ply the standard Pearl Jam sound: Vedder's pained emoting, the ...

$13.95 "Push" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
On YOURSELF OR SOMEONE LIKE YOU, Matchbox 20's debut, vocalist/lyricist Rob Thomas leads his band down the same path as Counting Crows, to a post-Pearl Jam, Van Morrison/Band-influenced home at the top of the charts. Thomas' raspy voice wraps a romanticized alienation around folky, roots-inflected rock tunes that share the thematic aspirations of Van circa TUPELO HONEY and The Band's self-titled second album, if not their ...
| | Days Of The New 2 (Green) CD (1999)
Days Of The New songs
$12.15 Clearly, Travis Meeks wasn't happy that his band (project may be the more appropriate word, actually) was dismissed as either an Alice in Chains/Pearl Jam ripoff or the naïve work of a group of teenagers upon the release of their 1997 eponymous debut. During the supporting tour for the album, he fired many of the original bandmembers and restructured the group so that it was clear that he was the driving force of the group. He continued to work hard throughout the recording of the band's second album, immodestly retitled Days of the New but far more ambitious than the name suggests. Opening with the sound of galloping horses, the album soon makes itself known as an epic, structured like a classic concept album but feeling exactly like a moodier, pretentious variation on Days of the New's post-grunge debut. There's no discounting Meeks' ambition, which is, in some ways, endearing; in ...

Days Of The New album
$13.89 This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by Jacques Lu Cont.
Jacques Lu Cont, the production wizard behind Les Rythmes Digitales, also spins a mean set of stylish Euro-house when he wants to, the evidence coming on his volume in the mix series overseen by London's most crucial indie club, Fabric. Lu Cont salutes the club's focus on music both clever and hooky (and danceable), drawing tracks from a few usual culprits (Röyksopp, Crazy Penis, Mirwais, Gus Gus) as well as quite a few '80s nuggets that sound perfect in context. From ...
