Description
Three O’Clock – Ever After – Cassette
Ever After is the fourth studio album by the Los Angeles-based band The Three O’Clock. Released in 1986, Ever After marked a departure from the band’s earlier psychedelic pop sound towards a more polished and commercially accessible direction.
The album features a mix of power pop, new wave, and alternative rock influences, showcasing the band’s versatility and willingness to evolve their sound. Songs like “Suzie’s On The Ball” and “Songs And Gentle Words” demonstrate The Three O’Clock’s knack for catchy hooks and melodic songwriting, while tracks like “Look Into Your Eyes” and “If You Could See My Way” showcase a more guitar-driven, rock-oriented approach.
Lyrically, Ever After explores themes of love, longing, and existential introspection, often with a touch of whimsy and surrealism. The band’s clever wordplay and poetic imagery add depth to the album’s songwriting, inviting listeners to ponder the deeper meaning behind the catchy melodies.
Ever After didn’t achieve the same level of commercial success as some of the band’s earlier releases, it remains a fan favorite among aficionados of 1980s alternative and college rock. Its blend of infectious hooks, shimmering guitars, and introspective lyrics make it a standout album in The Three O’Clock’s discography, showcasing a band unafraid to explore new musical territories while staying true to their melodic sensibilities.
