Travis

I saw a program on satellite music channel "The Amp" tonight about Travis and I had forgotten how good they are. Although they became a bit "commercial" for me, the first two albums are superb and in particular The Man Who which is a masterpiece.

Their videos are also superb and well worthy of a mention. Driftwood is one of my favorites - interesting, well shot and simple.

The good thing about them is they are real, no attempt to be cool or follow a trend and they don't court media attention to sell a few more cds. Now they are in their political stage but the sounds are still superb.
