Uncut
Loud like early '90s touchstones Swervedriver and Dinosaur Jr. Or perhaps The Jesus & Mary Chain. Cascading guitar squall, pounding rhythms, and basslines capable of moving the hairs on the back of your neck. Indeed, with their second album, bassist Derek Tokar has added his songwriting and vocal input along side Worang and Goldberg.
Through all of this hard work, the foursome found their live legs, playing off each other and creating an intense, connected stage presence. This shines through the bass-induced crevices of their new album Modern Currencies, lending it a more live, dynamic feel than anything you've heard from the band so far. Tight, but not over-produced; polished, but full of soul -- their experience as musicians is evident.
Over the last four years, Uncut have made the difficult move from a two-person studio project to a tour-ready four-piece. In doing so, they have outlived their early dance-rock pedigree, and are on to something new. Something better, and much, much louder.
Some Recent Quotes:
"Modern Currencies is one the most inventive and creative albums of the year."
- Amplifier Magazine
"Every wannabe rocker who took a side alley left of the dial just to avoid Nickelback Drive and Metallica Terrace, has wished they could be in a band as cool as Uncut."
- antiMUSIC.com
"...you kind of get the feeling that Uncut could explode into a million pieces of musical chaos... somehow they don't and they manage to have enough pop sense to actually write tunes around all this insanity that are catchy, memorable, and very good."
- Pacific Coast News
"I can honestly say, hand on heart, that Uncut now seems to shine beyond many of the classic alternative rock musicians they list as influence."
- Milk Milk Lemonade
"No sophomore slump with this gem of an album."
- PopMatters
"This group acts as if it’s all simple but I dare say that you can’t produce something this extraordinary without paying a hell of a lot of attention."
- Smother.net
"These perennially underappreciated local noisemakers from Paper Bag Records are, for my money, the country's best guitar-upon-guitar band. A fierce live act when they're firing, too."
- Toronto Star
"New Cities," one the most intense tracks to come out of Canada this year."
- Chart Attack
"Surely this is the record that will finally elevate Uncut to the level of notoriety enjoyed by some of its lesser Toronto indie-rock compatriots."
- Toronto Star
"Their driving, propulsive, rock-solid tunes have always impressed me, but with the release of this song on their new album "Modern Currencies", the band has exploded, coming up with what might be a late contender for the best-of lists of 2006."
- Grant Lawrence / CBC Radio 3
"Uncut sounded like they might make (the venue) collapse under the weight of the band's sheer volume."
- Michael Tedder / CMJ
