| Any fans? I think they're a fantastic guitar pop band. Love Ed Roland's lyrics too. Their new album Afterwords is fantastic...  |

| Are these the guys that did that song "Gel"? I know they had a few other hits, but that's the only song I remember liking (if it was them). Other than that, not my cuppa tea. | |

| I've only got one song, "Heavy." It's pretty good. | |

| It seemed they had the misfortune of coming out when grunge was big and people tried to shove them into that camp. Radio was unsure what to do with them though I did hear Shine and Gel quite a bit and it seems they had a couple other radio songs but I can't remember them off hand. Decent guitar pop as you say. My brother is into them a lot so I got to hear them and actually liked Disciplined Breakdown the best. Precious Declaration, Full Circle and Blame were really good songs. Haven't heard much lately, as I don't live near my bro anymore. |

| I have all their albums.
I saw them in a little club in New Haven when they were touring the Hints, Allegations and Things Left Unsaid album. I was totally blown away by how HEAVY they were! Nothing like the album. The live version of Shine was metal!

| I have their first 4 cds and love them all. They are one of those bands that put out good cds and are more rock than anything!

| No interest. A good friend of mine loves them, but I just don't care.  | |

| Good band and they used to have one killer guitar player (Just listen to the solo in shine, I think he left though?)
I like most of their songs favorites are Gel, Where the River Flows, Heavy, Precious Declaration, and December. All radio hits too | |

| GREAT singles, mediocre albums. The last album of theirs I bought was Blender. "Why Pt. 2" is my favorite song from them. | |

I agree with this assessment for the last several but up to the S/T, I think the albums are pretty solid.

| I only remember that song Precious Declaration. They sound pretty good, but I was into other stuff at the time and never got into them. | |

| I heard a radio interview (part of it anyway) between Vivian Cambell and a San Jose disc jockey named Greg Kihn (Greg Kihn Band) and in closing Greg called Vivian the lead guitar player of Def Leppard. Is this true ? I had heard he was only playin the rhythym role pretty much . | |
