Yawn. Deccatree are from Orange County and they were signed by Atlantic. They’ve had a tune used on a couple of US TV shows, been featured artist on MySpace and say they’ve sold 10,000 copies of their self released Battle of Life album after Atlantic chose to drop them. They’re four guys in a band. Tears is a song by them. And that’s about it, it’s bland americana television show soundtrack music that yes indeed you can just imagine playing on Tom’s iPod nano as he posts bulletins for the MySpace kids. Gods it’s dull.
On a more positive note there isn’t anything actually wrong with the track per-se and the thirty or forty seconds of intro building to the first crescendo almost tricks you into thinking it may be worthwhile. But no, there doesn’t ever feel like there’s any substance behind this at all, it’s decaffeinated pop/rock for those not interested in switching on, turn the volume up to eleven and it still sounds like background music.
