MusicJournoThe Chemists brew up good music
March 5th 2008 09:35
In this era of manufactured music and the flaccid compositions of soft c**k rock, real rock bands stand out in the crowd like a beacon. These are few and far between so when one surfaces through the bulls**t to rip into the Australian scene, music lovers sit up and listen. And this is exactly what Melbourne-based band The Chemists are doing – concocting a mixture of musical chemistry which looks set to take them straight to the top.
With the imminent release of their debut EP, the four lads behind the musical genius that is The Chemists are geared for success. They’re as passionate about their music as they are good at it – all consummate musicians who understand the meaning of good ole Aussie rock and how to make it, with an original and contemporary twist. Unlike many bands new on the scene whose self-dubbed original music sounds rather reminiscent of hits before them, The Chemists have a style all of their own, which transitions between a traditional rock persona, combined with punk and grunge influences. It’s not surprising to find out these talented four have earned their stripes in the music industry. They’ve been doggedly playing the bar circuits, cutting their teeth as live performers where they earned a surprisingly large fan base for a fledgling band. An EP release was a natural progression as requests for a recording became too numerous to ignore – and word started to spread outside the band’s Melbourne gig scene awarding the rockers something of a national reputation. One thing is certain, the chemistry in The Chemists is the perfect brew – and they rock!
