Description
Sound As Ever signaled the beginning of a successful career for Australian rock/pop outfit You Am I. After four EP releases, this debut album, produced by Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth), cemented the band's status as one of the countries most promising young acts. Containing the timeless "Berlin Chair" (voted #1 in Triple J's greatest Australian songs of the 90's), makes it a must to own for any rock listener. The heavier sounds of opener "Coprolalia" and single "Adam's Ribs" are mixed with mellower moments such as "Jaimme's Got A Gal" and the heartfelt "Ordinary". Frontman/songwriter Tim Rogers' writing abilities are clearly expressed throughout the debut, with the brilliant title track acting as the closer. After seven years, "Sound As Ever" still contains some of You Am I's best work and remains a landmark in Australian rock.
