YOU INSPIRE ME!!!
, May 19, 2001Reviewer: emyloumc - See all emyloumc's reviewsI am currently sitting my finals here in Scotland. When I need inspiration or simply peace of mind I pop on my Geneva "Further" CD. This CD is really effective if played after midnight with moonlight and the stars. "Into the blue" and "Further" give me that energy to go on. I sometimes ask myself if the guys from Geneva wrote these songs for me!! -
A simply beautiful haunting album

Pro Reviews: Further
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Sounding like a cross between James and Suede, Geneva occasionally hits sweeping, graceful highs on their debut album, Further. Just as often, they languish in their own pretensions, achieving a fraction of what they set out to do. At their best, Geneva surges with power, creating grand soundscapes with folky overtones and powerful backbeats. Like Tim Booth, Andrew Montgomery's yearning falsetto calls attention to himself, and he does have an extraordinary voice. However, the band hasn't figured out how to harness its power with suitable songs. Most of the songs on Further spill forward with determination, but they don't really go anywhere, which is confirmed by songs as breathtakingly assured and pretty as "Into the Blue." Those are the moments that make Further into a promising, occasionally remarkable, debut, yet there aren't quite enough of them to make it a fully successful record. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |
