About this album

  • Updated: 12/04/2010

Stars Of Our Own Lives is Drop The Ball's debut album. Recorded and mixed by the band themselves, they wanted to keep in with their DIY ethics and make the kind of music they wanted to make without the outside pressures, hassle and money worries. Mixing together all their different tastes in music, 'Stars Of Our Own Lives' mixes emotive rock recalling bands like Wedding Present and Sonic Youth mixing it with quirky upbeat crunchy chords a la early Weezer. The band themselves have no idea what kind of music they have made, they just want you to listen and if you like it. Let them know. The old cliche is 'we make music for ourselves' and this is bloody well true! If we were making it for a specific market, we wouldn't have tuned our guitars CCD#GGD#!

A very enjoyable and well-recorded album, and I look forward to seeing what they do next. Of their stated influences they remind me the most of Polvo, which is always a good thing.
