| | Do It Yourself CD (1997)
 $10.59  
Recorded at Royaltone Studios, North Hollywood, California. While his desire to keep the Seahorses a straight-ahead working band is admirable, the results are painfully lackluster. Audio Mixer: Rob Jacobs. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine After the long-overdue breakup of The Stone Roses, all eyes were on guitarist John Squire, whom many saw as the driving force behind the band. Additional personnel: Tony Visconti (Mellotron, tambura, Theremin); Lili Hayden (violin). Personnel: John Squire (guitar); Tony Visconti (tamboura, Mellotron, Theremin); Lili Hayden (violin); Andy Watts (drums, background vocals). And he's not following them very well at that, which means Do It Yourself winds up sounding like second-rate Cast. "Love is the Law" has a fairly interesting riff and "Love Me and Leave Me," a song co-written by Liam Gallagher, has a nice melody, but the most disconcerting thing about the Seahorses is that Squire sounds as if he's following Oasis, a band he influenced himself. Universal.
The Seahorses: Chris Helme (vocals, acoustic guitar); John Squire (guitar); Stuart Fletcher (bass); Andy Watts (drums, background vocals). Helme's songs, including the two openers, are quite bland, but Squire's numbers are also undistinguished attempts at classicist Britpop. 11 tracks including, 'I Want You to Know', 'Blinded by the Sun' & 'Suicide Drive'. Squire's riffs are skilled but rarely catchy -- they're labored and self-consciously complex. Determined to avoid the career-killing, time-consuming recording that plagued the Stone Roses' Second Coming, guitarist John Squire had the Seahorses record their debut album Do It Yourself within months of forming. Photographers: John Dunne; Pennie Smith. Import pressing of their 1997 debut album for Britpop act featuring ex-Stone Roses' guitarist John Squire. However, they do keep your attention, which can't be said about vocalist Chris Helme, who illustrates that Ian Brown's affected sneer works better with a tuneless vocalist. Recording information: Royaltone Studios, North Hollywood, CA. Squire eventually resurfaced as guitarist with the Seahorses on their debut album, DO IT YOURSELF.
