Unwelcome Guests ''Wavering''

Let's do a show of hands on how many people like unwelcome guests, those people who drop in unannounced and get in the way of what you were trying to do? Hmm, I was right, not many of you. Now how many of you like Unwelcome Guests, the Buffalo, NY-based band? Ok, maybe not as many hands there as perhaps I'd like to see. Well, let me tell you something about the band's sophomore album, released by the excellent Dirt Cult Records, and see if I can pique your interest so that a second round will see more hands in the air.

First up, it's pretty hard to pigeonhole Unwelcome Guests; they're not exactly punk, they're not exactly alternative and they're not exactly Americana; they're well ….. they're just Unwelcome Guests and Unwelcome Guests will use whatever means necessary to get their music across. From
start to finish Unwelcome Guests refuse to get trapped into sounding any one particular way and as such the album refuses to get bogged down as it shifts this way and that during the ten tracks. The fact that a band can be diverse, although not overly so, without it seeming disjointed is always a plus point to me, and at the end of each play of Wavering I feel as if I've been on a bit of a journey which has included a number of slight tangential twists and turns without ever losing focus of the required destination. You can imagine the scene when the band formed, with four guys getting together with the aim of just having a great time rocking out, no set guidelines, just a love of music -- an approach I applaud...Rich27 Punk news
