The Cranberries

The release of the album, Everybody Else is Doing It, So Why Can't We? marked the International success of Cranberries that boosted their career from the humble pre-Britpop U.K. indie scene beginnings. Thanks to MTV that played their music videos in heavy rotation, many soon took notice of their unique melodic cacophony. Though mostly associated with rock alternative, The Cranberries' music resonates with the elements of Indie guitar pop, post-Punk, Rock, and the hypnotic sonic melodies if the late 80's. The powerful and lush vocals of Dolores O'Riordan makes their music all the more dreamy.

Originally formed as the Irish band - Cranberry Saw Us by Mike and Noel Hogan, brothers from Limerick with drummer Fergal Lawler; the band became just The Cranberries as changed by popularized lead vocals O'Riordan who joined them later after having hired by the rest of the band.

The music of the Cranberries is what I call timeless. I have loved them ever since I was a kid, and now that I have a couple thier music 'Lingers'...

People from all walks of life, from whatever generation would surely have a hard time resisting the delightful trance they are put into as soon as the Cranberries blast off of the radio.

It was even Dolores O'Riordan that inspired me to go and have a skinhead...

I just love everything about The Cranberries...
