Before you click that link imagine this; The year is 1990. The location is California, San Diego specifically, and the scene is skaters and punks.
Okay, now listen to the song.
Weird right?
The Cry would fit perfectly into the melodramatic British Alt/New Wave bands of the ‘80s. But they’re not from England. They’re more likely to run into Blink-182 on a local stage than The Jesus and Mary Chain.
I’ve been obsessed with this band for a while. The first reason is because of their out-of-place-sound, the second because they’re really really amazing. Beautiful Reasons is an album I can’t stop listening to.
Thanks for listening,
Will
