"We are not trying to change the face of music. We are playing music that we love and would personally want to listen to, if we had the choice. It's a collaboration of all styles we appreciate the most, which varies from band member to band member.We are very proud of our music, and we can only hope you will enjoy listening to it half as much as we enjoy playing it.
Polariss x"

"Polariss maybe too young to remember Kenickie, but there's something of that late lamented band in the confident aura of their front person Steph. Their music is crunchy, poppy, punchy and with strong melodies, and in this respect too they remind me of Kenickie, although others have said Ten Thousand Manics and The Cranberries. This could be due to the difference between their live and recorded sound, and I much prefer the latter. It's a far less polished, with a more raw and punky sound as the instruments duel and grapple with each other, although the twin vocal harmonies always anchor the songs in the land of pop. The use of some very accomplished violin and saxophone playing gives Polariss a new take on this poppy-punk thing, and everyone who watched was won over with all sorts of wild and silly dancing. With some careful aiming, Polariss could indeed sink the ship of dumb boy and girl bands Pop."

It's actually a pity this is such a rough recording, as the vocals start to distort just as they sound like they might get interesting. This starts of as an innocuous sounding little pop song. But as we go along you begin to realize something all together darker is going down and the crescendos of the song are wild, and could be awe inspiring if recorded somewhat better. This is a well written interesting song; you can hear that through almost anything. -Review by Dave Chislett w/ Matchbox Recordings (FEEL - TRACK 1 FROM "POLARISS E.P") MyGen Profile Generator
