The Next Generation..........2004-10-21

The next generation has arrived. Liam Finn (son of the legendary Neil Finn) and Matt Eccles (son of the drummer of classic Aussie band The Angels) have joined forces in a band and if their debut album is anything to go by these boys will have no trouble reaching legendary status.
The album is truly brilliant and features a wide range of material from these talented young musicians. "Supa Day" "Filthy McNasty" and "Drop D" are pure rock. Then there's songs like "At Night" "Rain" "Feed The Dogs" "Unused Potatoes" and "Sleepy News" which rock just as hard but there's something more melodic mixed in there making them completely unique. Finally there are the mellower tracks on the album "Easy As It Seems" and "Other Way" are perfect but there's also "Lucy's Song" on which Liam's beautiful lyrics and heartfelt vocal stylings would melt the coldest of hearts.
The entire album is a winner but standout tracks are "Lucy's Song" "Unused Potatoes" "Feed The Dogs" and "Drop D." I recommend it to anyone and everyone who enjoys good rock music.

this cd passes all expectations.......2004-09-04

This is a FANTASTIC album. The first 4 songs are brilliant. Great songwriting from such a young group of fellows. The best way to describe it I guess is 'melodic rock.' It makes you want to get up and rock out but the melodies are always the main part of the song - if that makes sense. I listen to lots of different music and this is best 'rock' I have heard in ages. The slower songs are brilliant too - just fantastic. At their live shows you see a lot of people wearing Muse, Radiohead and Gomez shirts, if that helps to categorise them, but they aren't as dramatic as Muse, more punk than Gomez and have more energy than Radiohead. this is simply a great record. Tracks 6 and 9 and 12 are exceptional!
Try 'em out

This is a great cd!.......2003-09-01

I bought this cd after hearing only one song "sleepy news", and I was really impressed when I listened to the rest of the album. Betchadupa have so much potential and are all incredibly talented musicians (even though they are all really young!). I've seen them in concert twice & they were great live.

A must buy album!

very cool.......2003-08-18

i bought this cd after hearing a few of their singles which turned out the be the heaviest of the songs on the album. I first listened to the cd and thought it was a bit slow but alright then i listened to it a few more times to get to know each song and every song grew on me and now i love all the songs on the album. betchadupa are one of the best bands in new zealand and i think will go on to international success.
BUY IT NOW!!!
