Buy Winning Days from Amazon
Avatars of 2002's "new rock revolution", The Vines are becoming expert at making a little go a long way. Like their debut, Highly Evolved, the gist of Winning Days is bursts of heads-down guitar with enough psychedelic bolt-ons to pass the grooviness test. What felt refreshingly simple then, however, seems merely simplistic now. The lack of a discernible agenda is what does for Winning Days, whose 11 tracks were all written as long ago as 2001.
