Bullets Of Orange – Bullets Of Orange

Label: 33Rd Street Records

Originally from Nashville, Tenn, Bullets of Orange have acquired rapid CMJ chart success. With this achievement, the alternative rock band sign with Larkspur, California-based 33rd Street Records and prepare to nationally release their self-titled album on January 28, 2003.

Bullets of Orange unite a post-grunge attitude with a Brit Pop sensitivity that has become so popular in the wake of such groups as Coldplay, Oasis, and Travis.  However, Bullets have a unique way of constructing songs, which sets them apart from these UK exports.  Singer, Quinlan’s range is nothing short of amazing as he fluctuates from a Billy Corgan-esc snarl to a Bono-like falsetto.  The record is moody and spacey due to the use of atmospheric synthesizers, tight harmonies, soothing piano and swirling guitar work.  While the majority of the cd has a constant tranquil aura, this quartet can still get electric with an intensity of a freight train. 

Bullets of Orange’s self titled debut is garnering a lot of attention in the states and will surely makes its way into the European market upon the release.
