Named after Marty McFly, the character played by Michael J. Fox in the movies of Back To The Future, McFly marks
their debut this week on WSVNRadio.net - their debut album, Room On The 3rd Floor, from 2004. Formed in London,
they were much more popular in their hometown country, rather than the U.S. They achieved #1 hits there, likewise their
albums also reached #1. From the debut album, two singles reached #1 in the U.K.: "5 Colours In Her Hair," and
"Obviously." They would achieve future #1 hit singles, and their debut album and second album Wonderland
would reach #1 on the U.K. albums chart. Considered a "Boy Band," McFly's Pop and Rock styles recorded seven studio albums
(2004-2023).
The #1 hit "5 Colours In Her Hair" leads off the album, as I can't help but compare the Rock sound to that of
Green Day. "Obviously" (also a #1 hit), is much mellower than the lead off rocking track, and again, lead vocalist
Tom Fletcher/Danny Jones singing gets the resemblence to Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong. The title track "Room On The
3rd Floor" is another mellow tune. Very pleasant. "That Girl" is another rocker, "Hypnotized" contnues
McFly's Rock (Pop) style. "Saturday Night" definitely gets the Green Day vibe. Musically and vocally.
"Met This Girl" continues that. "She Left Me" is quite nostalgic, a Pop 50s'ish style. "Down By The
Lake" returns back to the rocking Green Day style. "Unsaid Things" returns to the Pop style (yes, Green Day
Pop). "Surfer Babe" is another Rocker. "Not Alone" has a more serious sound, with it's Pop-driven soft
Pop style. It does kick into another well recorded Rock/Pop track. "Broccoli" ends the album, with another Green
Day'ish Rock style.
McFly's debut Room On The 3rd Floor brings together Rock and Pop. Heavily comapred to Green Day, McFly is more
Pop than Green Day's Punk style. Basically, it's Rock n Roll here for McFly, and each song brings it's own energetic
(and nostalgic) Pop/Rock style into their own. More of a Rock band than that of a "Boy Band," McFly does Rock into their
sound and becoming a very popular group in their home of the U.K. Very popular there, as they could have been popular here
in the U.S. Room On The 3rd Floor is a great listen. Make room on any of your floors, McFly has made their name
in Popular Music.
