The Cranberries were a breath of fresh air when they arrived on the music scene. Indie pop through an Irish filter. Their debut album (Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?) is filled with light and breezy melodies that reveals both a vulnerability and a strength of will, all wrapped up in a wistful Smiths influenced package. Linger and Dreams are the highlights of their debut, but it’s really a good album from start to finish.
No Need to Argue is the follow up, which features the protest song Zombie that was inescapable in 1995. Aside from finding a harder sound on Zombie the band don’t veer too far from the sound that made them popular with their debut.
