Evergreen Trio

For All Intents And Purposes (2000)

Scott Heisel

Everyone needs to own a CD like this. Not necessarily this one in particular, but one like this. The Evergreen Trio [who actually have 5 members -- try explaining that one] play extremely heartfelt, emotional, low-fi indie rock. And they play it extremely well. That's not supposed to mean their songs are extremely intricate [they're not] or they're ridiculously well-produced [they're not] or even that their music is all that groundbreaking [it's not], but that's where my first sentence ties back in: everyone needs to own a CD like this. The CD that's perfect for that lazy weekend morning in your room; the CD that just fits for a long, potentially dreary car ride; the CD that makes you think about that special person and just why they're so special. These boys manage to overcome every potential stereotype about their genre and really put out a solid first CD. I advise you to all watch out for The Evergreen Trio.
