The Datsuns - Outta Sight/Outta Mind

Sophomore Slump

If I haven't owned their self titled album already, I wouldn't be as disappointed with this release. There are only a few songs that come close to the level of rock on the self titled album. Blacken My Thumb and I Got No Words are the standouts of the CD and some of the middle tracks have the feeling of bland filler. If you have interest in the Datsuns, get their first album and wait for their next one to come out. February 1, 2005

The Judge is a dumbass

How can you say Led Zeppelin aren't real rock and roll. Led Zeppelin is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Just so you know, anyone how listens to the strokes isn't a real rocker. You know nothing about rock and roll. Go listen to some real rock like Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Van Halen, and AC/DC until then shut the hell up and stop sharing your idiotic ideas. I don't care for this cd that much though get a better rock band like the best SILVERTIDE.
down below is a list of all the bands true rock fans should check out. New bands here to save the scene.
The Darkness
Jet
Hurricane Party
Parchman Farm (Only have an ep out but it rocks and you can find it here on amazon.)
Rose Hill Drive ( have an ep out but not on amazon. They toured with Van Halen and completly rock and the guitarist is incredible.)
and the best new band Silvertide November 27, 2004

The Datsuns ROCK!

Hey - I don't care WHERE this group is from - the Datsuns are one of the best new groups on the scene right now. This is one opening act (currently on tour with the Pixies), you DON'T want to miss. I'd say Frank Black and co. are a pretty good judge of talent and they are giving this group a big opportunity (and rightly so) to take advantage of some serious exposure among alternative (whatever the h#ll that means) audiences.

I was quite impressed by their set and immediately went out and purchased their two CDs. The music is unabashedly fast, hard, and loud, high-octane, unadulterated rock and roll. Yep, that description is pretty corn-ball, and yep, that description is dead-on Datsuns.

These guys play with energy and a lot of attitude. Its all very welcome in my book. I like their moxey. I've had enough of 1) angst-ridden, whiny crap bands 2) preachy, political groups telling me who I should vote for and what to think, and 3) deep, self-important "artists" who take themselves WAY too seriously.

These guys get back to the basics - sex, drugs, and rock and roll - kind of like the nihilistic, guitar-driven rock of Janes Addiction back in the Nineties. Take one part Bon Scott's AC/DC, one part early Zeppelin, and one part Cheap Trick (before they sucked) - turn the amp up to "11" and speed it up. November 12, 2004

It's Good.

It's solid. Nothing mindblowing (not that I expected that) but it's a young band playing some nice hard rock. It's good dirty fun etc. Not original, but fun. November 9, 2004

Mixed blessing.

Great stuff! Genius!...But just why in the flaming depths is it so expensive?! October 10, 2004
