For The Fan Presents:
Statistics “Often Lie” (2005) Review
The sound of the underground was brewing some incredible music in the late 1990s and through the early half of the 2000s. Statistics was one of those bands that was producing some incredible recordings, and yet didn’t get the mainstream success that other bands seemed to get. On the Jade Tree label, they were able to create a lot of good music, and only now are people starting to realize it in many ways. For fans of indie, shoe gaze, and guitar driven rock music, this sits well with the rest of the collection. But for those that are looking at this genre for the first time, you’ll be astonished by what Statistics puts together on their 2005 release “Often Lie”. It’s a mix of 9 tracks that will go from the heights of independent rock to the lows of emo and indie.
