notes

In many ways songs are like medication or vitamin supplements for life’s experiences. If you’re feeling down a song can pick you up, needing courage, a song can give you that boost you need to climb that mountain. Or if you’re feeling great, a song can enhance that experience.

The songs found on this CD are reactions or prescriptions for life's experiences.

If you’re concerned about the state of the world check out GOLDEN AGE. Sometimes in order to make positive changes, we have to hit rock bottom. This song speaks about the excitement and freedom found when we reach the lowest of points. It’s the feeling of hope and exhilaration one feels when knowing there is no place to go but up.

Every have an out of body experience? Ever been woken up from a good dream that you wish you could go back to sleep to finish? If you answered yes to either question, listen to TEN MINUTES to ease the frustration that can come from such situations.

SOUL FOR SALE drums home the point that hindsight is 20/20.

It might be good for you to hear, EYE SEE if you ever consider suicide as an option to relieve life's pain..

If you were ever made to feel bad about yourself by someone who was suppose to do just the opposite. Let UNTIL I MET YOU come to the rescue.

“Why are we enemies again?” If you ever stopped talking to someone for many years but today can’t remember for the life of you why, HERE TODAY can help rebuild that connection.

More, more, more! There has to be more to life. GREEN explores the realization that we are more than the job we hold or how much money we make.

Thanks For Listening.

  • Great, great garage!
    author: Carl M. Nielsen

    This is hardpumping garage rock, the sound of distortion guitars, high energy and attitude. Usually that would not be my kind of thing. The difference is that this is also melodic, with beautifull lines presented by a very sensitive and ekspressive singer. Great voice! - Even though it is the sound of today, related to the contemporary garage-scene, there is a flavour of the 60's and the garage bands of yesterday in on it, in a very charming way. Adding just what is needed for those who like the energy of todays hardrock and punk, but finding it to noisy and to little music. Well, this IS noisy, but not to noisy, and there's sure a lot of plain, real music in it. Actually quite cathing - seven well-composed songs heading off in the manner of now, but just as fine as back then. I think "Fingers Crossed For Fuses" is able to gather together many different listeners who normaly would dislike eachothers taste. It's solid - a difinite quality product. Not for passionate Vivaldi-lovers and people strictly into soft-pop. But for almost anyone else!

  • Purity and Purpose Finds a Heartbeat
    author: Buddy Stone

    This Blendre CD has a raw sound that offers the listener an opportunity to eavesdrop on a potentially future sound with a genuine heartbeat. The sound is hits you raw because it's honest. Any imperfections here are just reflections on Blendre's unmistakable drive deliver a meaningful sound.

  • Blendre USA Rock
    author: Barikada

    Iz New Yorkske regije dolazi sastav Blendre. Cine ga iskusni muzicari sa karijerom iza sebe. U njihovoj muzici mogu se osetiti uticaji koji balansiraju od Beatlesa do Stoogesa, kao i izvodjacki elementi koji dodiruju rock, garage rock, pop, indie rock. Melodicnost im takodje spada u prepoznatljivi deo izraza, a tekstualni detalji otkrivaju autorsku ozbiljnost svakog pojedinacnog clana. Inace, bend radi u postavi tria, a nedavno su objavili EP sa 7 numera, trajanja nesto duzeg od 20 minuta. Blendre nude sofisticiraniju varijantu muzicke ponude koja je sa jedne strane melodicna, a sa druge strane svesno koketira sa rock idiomima, kroz koje prolaze 60's elementi, garage upliv i indie rock tipicno USA dimenzije. Produkcija je takodje svesno umeksana, tako da do izraza vise dolazi vokalna dimenzija. Dvije numere, od ponudjenih sedam, po mom misljenju poseduju izrazeniju slusljivost, a to su "Ten Minutes" i "Eye Sea". "Fingers Crossed For Fuses" sadrzi uglavnom koherentan materijal, koji tek ceka na svoju svetsku promociju.

  • 60's repeats, to a hosts of hooks
    author: Mugz Magazine

    Coupled with a simplicity reminiscent of the early 60’s (or mid-80’s), and then mixed with the modern influxes of vocals and instrumentation is how one seems to get Blendre’s latest, “Fingers Crossed for Fuses”. Because the band seems to find favor with their hooks they continue, and they often succeed. On a traditionally big name band one might hope for a bit of increased diversity, yet Blendre instead is paving their path for the future trademark style and that must be noted.
