iTunes Review

When they want to, Sick Puppies can muster an impressive snarl but they’re not above wagging their tails for attention; the Australian-bred trio mixes ferocity with a little friendliness on their sophomore album, Tri-Polar. Though the band seems rooted in ‘90s-era grunge sounds, they are also capable of Goo Goo Dolls-style power balladry or Creed-like grandeur. Singer Shimon Moore can shred his larynx with the best of them, infusing “You’re Going Down,” “I Hate You” and “Street Fighter (War)” with well-aimed aggression. He projects a sustained sense of anguish on tracks like “Master of the Universe” and “Should’ve Known Better,” spurred on by Emma Anzai’s pulsating bass and Mark Goodwin’s rippling drums. But even when tearing into lovers and enemies, Sick Puppies rarely stray from familiar (and effective) melodic motifs. “Don’t Walk Away” and “So What I Lied” successfully emphasize sweetness over bite. The trio’s ability to veer from the hard-charging “Survive” to the almost gentle “White Balloons” is a testimony to their creative strength. Sick Puppies prove themselves alive and well on their second full-length release.

A New Millenium Styx
     

I caught a Sick Puppies song on my local alternative rock station in Orlando and was hooked. These guys are awesome!

For those of you old enough te remember, this is what Styx started out like before they went all smarmy with simpering love ballads.

And for the record, I'm a balding 53 year old fat guy, but I can always appreciate talent!

Biography

Formed: 1997 in Sydney, Australia

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '90s, '00s

With a name like Sick Puppies, you wouldn't think hugs would play a major role in the gutsy indie crew's rise to fame, but they do, along with malls and the video-sharing site YouTube. When they met in 1997, singer/lead guitarist Shimon Moore and bassist Emma Anzai were both fans of Silverchair and the Living End plus many of the other angst rock/punk rock bands from their native Australia. Soon Chris Mileski joined on drums and a series of live gigs led to some local recognition and the 1999 EP...
