Nuts For Music

I was stumbling through my music library the other night and came across some songs off of Sense Field’s Tonight And Forever. I’m sitting there, listening to what I think is random music, which it really was, and had the thought. Wow, what’s this?! Sense Field? Who’re they again?

So I did some digging around and realized they’d be disbanded for about 4 years, their last album coming in 2003 entitled Living Outside. The originally formed out of California in 1991 from the band Reason to Believe. They’re considered the contemporaries of bands like Jimmie Eats World. I think if the band were still around today, they’d definitely be popular and regularly played on the radio. Their music has a little pop to it, which seems to get songs air time these days. But at the same time, they have an original hardcore punk sound that was popular back in the day. I just love music like this. They have stuff that comes right at you, but then they have nice, melodic tunes that you can just groove to.

I did end up buying 4 of their albums on iTunes (To the tune of $40. Yikes!). I haven’t really been disappointed by any of their stuff. Some songs are better than others, but in all, all 4 albums (I’ll list below) are quality. If you don’t have them or aren’t familiar with Sense Field, I highly recommend you check them out.

• Sense Field (1994)
• Building (1996)
• Tonight And Forever (2001)
• Living Outside (2003)

Sense Field may long be gone, but their music lives on!
