Album Description

Rooney is: Ned Brower - Drums, backing vocals Taylor Locke - Guitars, backing vocals Robert Schwartzman - Vocals, Guitar Louie Stevens - Keyboards Matthew Winter -- Bass

Their second album "Calling The World" - a pop-rock manifesto and contribution to the rock-pop body of work initiated by The Beatles and The Beach Boys and propagated by subsequent groups such as Queen, E.L.O., Cheap Trick, The Cars, Jellyfish and Weezer.

Lead singer Robert Schwartzman wrote all of the songs on "Calling the World" after searching for a sound that would at once rock and "also make people dance."

The first single from "Calling the World" is "When Did Your Heart Go Missing?" - an effervescent head-bobber with an infectious chorus. The colorful video was shot in various locations in Los Angeles by noted director Benny Boom (50 Cent, Missy Elliot) and depicts a day in the California life of Rooney, complete with afternoon wake-up, beach bar-b-q house party, classic car Hollywood cruise and late-night Silver Lake club romp.

Other songs from the album include the mini-rock opera "I Should Have Been After You," "Believe In Me," a driving synth-propelled call for a leap of faith, "What For" a breezy and melodic slice of friendly advice, and "Help Me Find My Way," a poignant ode to Robert's late father.

Producer John Fields (Andrew W.K., Switchfoot) recorded "Calling The World" with Rooney in Los Angeles by harnessing the band's expert musicianship via live takes and extemporaneous improvisations, at times even using a laptop to capture the urgency of the moment. "Rooney" sold 400,000 albums of their debut and toured extensively across the United States and Europe. The members of Rooney recently hosted a Monday-night residency at Los Angeles' renown Roxy nightclub during the entire month of April 2007 so they could play their new "Calling the World" material for their loyal, hometown fans first. They were joined on stage by friends to perform covers including Phantom Planet, The Donnas, The Chapin Sisters, Ben Lee, Susana Hoffs (who performed Walk Like An Egyptian with the band), and Cherrytree Records label mates The Feeling.

Rooney released their eponymous, debut album in 2002 when the median age of the band was 19 years old.

Rooney is a favorite of other bands who are constantly asking to hit the road with them. They've toured with Weezer, The Strokes, All American Rejects, Travis, Pete Yorn. In May 2007, Rooney embark on a club tour of the UK and Continental Europe and return to the US for a national tour as opening act for Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas.

4.0 out of 5 stars 2007年の70年代ポップ・ロック!, 2007/9/2
By Oh! Not Him Again (Somewhere in JAPAN) - See all my reviews
このバンドの事は知りませんでしたが、「ん?NAZZ?」ということでジャケ買いしてみたら、聴いてみて琴線鳴りまくりでした。これだからジャケ買いは辞められません(外れた時は相当ガッカリしますが)70年代パワー・ポップが好きな人なら是非!

しかし、恐らくメンバーは80年代生まれだろうに・・・もしかして90年代?

5.0 out of 5 stars メロディ重視の骨太ロック, 2007/12/2
初めてRooneyを聞いたのだが、なかなか良い!
久しぶりにアメリカのバンドでいいな、と思った。
骨太なロックなのに、やけにアメリカ臭くなくて。
メロディが良いので、今年日本でブレイクしたMeleeが好きな人には、これもオススメかも。
Meleeよりはロック色が強いけど。
個人的には、歌詞がゆっくりめでメロディに流れるようにマッチしているので、一緒に歌いやすい所が気に入っている。
ライブ行ったら、観客と一体になって歌って、盛り上がりそうだな。
このアルバムの中でのオススメは「Believe In Me」。けっこうハマった。
