Oleander is one of those overlooked post-grunge bands that deserved a better fate than it had. Whether is the killer cover of The Cure's 'Boys Don't Cry', the opener 'You'll Find Out" or the often overlooked 'Stupid', the band's second album is packed with raw energy and upbeat rhythms. The spotlight is definitely on the Nirvana-esque 'Why I'm Here', but similarities can also be found in 'Lost Cause', a track that carries some Foo Fighters spirit. The powerful ballad 'How Could I' was another interesting moment but this did not change the album's character. Recommendations: "Why I'm Here", "Stupid", "You'll Find Out", "Lost Cause"r
