Save Ferris - It Means Everything

The major-label debut from ska punks Save Ferris isn't exactly a classic, but it is a lot of fun. There's no middle-ground reaction to their cover of "Come On Eileen"; everyone seems to either love it or hate it. If you're in the latter group, skip it and listen to "The World Is New," "Superspy," "Goodbye," and "Little Differences." Save Ferris are at their best when they're up-tempo, and fortunately there are plenty of up-tempo songs on this album, peppered with catchy hooks, the requisite horns, and Monique Powell's considerable voice (one of Save Ferris's major strengths). While not fantastic, It Means Everything is a promising album, with several moments that verge on brilliance. --Genevieve Williams Amazon.com

Good sound, wrong timing.

It Means Everything by ska/punk band Save Ferris was their debut but unfortantely the magic didn't last for long. The band broke-up in 2002, ska was good music but you knew this kind of genre would not last long. Monique Powell sure had the lungs on such tracks like The World is New, Spam, Goodbye My Friend, Lies, and Come on Eileen. This album fades with time, too bad this band wasn't more successful.

Fun Ska CD, Great Singing

Save Ferris along with Reel Big Fish are a couple major benefactors in Ska second (but limited) revival. For the most part the songs are uptempo, the horn's great, but what really makes this album is Monique's great singing ability. Look beyond 'Come on Eileen' there are many great tunes here like the 'Spam' a modern day ska classic. Also, check out the video included on the cd with a great little cut from one of their live shows. I highly recommned this album. If you are looking for other additions to your ska library, check out Bop Harvey's get album Bread and Circus. October 29, 2006
