You wont be sorry with Laughing City.......2007-05-11

This short length EP "layghing city" by Eisley is most stunning to listen to. When the CD ends with laughing city you still want the CD to keep on playing. Sherri's and stay's voice is amazing and sweet sounding as you listen to each of the five songs on Laughing city. Stacys keyboard solo in Over the mountains we go is simply beuatiful. As for there ohhs and ahhs in the song. Laughing city has such a soft lullaby sound to it that you'll want to listen to it over and over again. Tree tops is a very-fun- to-listen-to song and will make you start to sing the ahh parts by stacy. This EP is worth every penny and will most likely be too hard to get in the future. So buy Laughing city while your still able to. You wont be sorry.

The most original band around at the moment.......2006-03-15

This, one of the Eisley EPs, shows the raw material that was used to make the fantastic Room Noises album which came out last year.

Extraordinary vocals, harmony and music make this combination of Sundays, Mandalay, Lisa Loeb, Astronaut Wife utterly bewitching.

Can't wait for the second album

Nothing you've ever imagined of.......2005-08-19

You've heard nothing like this before! This is the perfect music to listen to on a cold winter's night alone drinking a cup of tea. Have one listen to "Telescope Eyes" and you'll find your new favorite band. The music is soft, melodic, emotional, dark at times, but always lovely. Be sure to check out their full length debut album "Room Noises"

great band Eisley Marvelous Things .......2005-04-27

Growing up home-schooled and cable-less in the East Texas town of Tyler, the DuPree kids had a lot of time to develop their imaginations, carving out an odd, insular little fantasy world. Their band name is a Star Wars reference, and their music could be dubbed Narnia-pop: Singer-songwriter Stacy (the youngest at 15, she leads two sisters, a brother and a neighborhood friend) looks and sounds like something straight out of British fabulist C.S. Lewis. Here she plays Alice, guiding us through a misty, minor-key Wonderland populated by scores of "Marvelous Things" - mermaids, horses that grow from the ground, bats with butterfly wings and two-part harmonies that swoop and soar. Dorky? Sure. But with songs this full of imagination and existential yearning, Eisley can hoard their 36-sided dice and Magic cards with pride.

Eisley makes me happy.......2005-03-08

When I first heard Eisley I wasn't sure what I was listening to, but as it went on I became infatuated. I have now found that they have taken over my car, my cd player, and my computer. So: if you want my opinion, yes! buy this CD! buy the others too! be a happy family of Eisleyness! but yeah. They're good.

Customer Reviews:

A great collection of Aussie punk and post punk.......2006-02-06

There has been several recent compilations exposing what was a very prolific and creative period in Australian independent music - the 70s and 80s. Until recently, this great music remained obscure and unknown outside the circle of hard core fans that still treasure the original 7 inch singles. This has been somewhat addressed by the "Do The Pop", "Tales of The Underground" and "Born Out Of Time" collections. However, Inner City Sound has a wider musical vision than just the "Darlinghurst as a suburb of Detroit" approach of the other admittedly excellent compilations. It also includes more of the Melbourne scene that spawned Nick Cave (an obscure demo of Cave's first band is included). Better known bands (Hunters & Collectors, Go Betweens and the Saints) rub shoulders with one hit wonders and a couple of otherwise impossible to find classics like XL Capris' My City of Sydney. Worth every cent.

Living Daylight's best.......2001-09-08

OK, so I haven't heard the middle CD, 500 Pound Cat yet. I must say though, this CD sounds MUCH better than Electric Rosary. The songs are superb and the production is MUCH superior. Arne's bass plays a very important role in this guitar-free band, and you can actually hear Arne up front in this mix. He was mainly relegated to the background in Electric Rosary.

Like I was saying, great songwriting on this CD. Fester, Chez Arnesto and 6/8 really stand out for me with those looping, high-energy grooves. Buy this CD! You won't be dissapointed.

Pretty Good.......2001-01-03

This is a pretty good cd. Especially if you like not your everyday music. I enjoy it a lot. I would recommend it to people, the ones who like this type of music.

Album Description

Inner City Sound is a 2 CD set stand-alone companion piece to the cult book of the same name. First published in 1982, Clinton Walker's Inner City Sound told the story of Australia's punk/post-punk music underground, which paved the way world-wide for indie/alternative rock to follow and produce such seminal names as the Saints, Radio Birdman, Nick Cave, Go-Betweens, Triffids, Scientists, X, Severed Heads, Super-K and many more. Laughing Outlaw Records is proud to present the long-awaited Inner City Soundtrack. Produced and annotated by Clinton Walker and re-mastered by Don Bartley - and including an extraordinary hand-drawn fold-out family tree poster, Inner City Sound provides proof positive that Australia contributed as much as anyone to the D-I-Y revolution of the late 70s/early 80s; over 40 tracks, restored to a virgin vinyl glory, that still rings fresh and true, a mix of classics and rarities, many appearing on CD for the first time. Bristling with urgency and originality, this is an instant classic 20 years in the making! 2005.
