300.0. "10,000 Maniacs" by FORTSC::CHABAN (Pray for Peter Pumpkinhead!) Wed Sep 30 1992 19:53

    
    Just bought the new album "Our Time In Eden".
    
    So far, I like.
    
    Classic Maniacs. Great "Morning After" music.  Relaxing and cerebral
    often etherial. Nat's voice is sweet as ever and her lyrics still pick
    at your mind.

"Noah's Dove" is amazing ... beautiful song.

I was a little surprised to hear horns ! in some of the songs ...
they work, though.

    I also purchased 10,000 Maniacs new CD "Our Time In Eden", and fully
    agree it is a great product. Natalie's voice and emotion as as strong
    as ever. I have also seen their video version of These are the days, it
    is quite nice.

    They were *KILLER* on SNL this last weekend.  Ms. Merchant could teach
    Madonna a thing or two about sensuality.

300.9last concert?WBC::DEADYit's hard to get releaseFri Jul 16 1993 11:1310
    
    	A local (Wash. D.C.) alternative station, (WHFS 99.1) has reported
    that rumors of the bands break-up have apparently been true. 10,000
    Maniacs played their "last concert" as a band last night in their home-
    town of Jamestown, NY. They also said that Natalie Merchant will be
    releasing her own work in the future.
    	I'm anxious to see what becomes of this.

    Re: .9
    
    Another case where too much attention paid to the front-person has
    deep-sixed a band.  I still think the band was already on the way down
    after "The Wishing Chair" when John what's-his-name left. His
    contributions were most of what I liked about the band.

    Just got the mtv unplugged 10,000 Maniacs CD last night. The sound
    leaves a little to be desired, I guess that's a result of the format.
    The release itself is very good, the song list is:
    	These Are Days
    	Eat For Two
    	Candy Everybody Wants
    	I'm Not the Man
    	Don't Talk
    	Hey Jack Kerouac
    	What's The Matter Here?
    	Gold Rush Brides
    	Like The Weather
    	Trouble Me
    	Jezebel
    	Because The Night
    	Stockton Gala Days
    	Noah's Dove

300.12"What's The Matter Here" Indeed!TECRUS::ROSTMetal GuruWed Oct 27 1993 10:1410
    Well, I guess this will tide everyone over till Natalie releases her
    first solo effort.  Actually, since she's the only one seen on the
    cover, I guess the record company forgot that it's still a band release 
    8^)
    
    BTW, completists will want the new Rock For Choice release on Rykodisk
    that has a track with REM and Natalie doing their (previously
    unreleased) thing.
