Artist: Candlebox
Album: Candlebox
Year: 1993
Does anyone still remember Candlebox? Man, they were the shit for like a minute in the early to mid '90's. Then, well, they faded from the public consciousness. Which is too bad...I think they had some real talent and should've been a lot bigger. I mean, fuck, Creed was HUGE. Why couldn't have Candlebox been as big as them? Song #5 on the Candlebox self-titled album is the track Far Behind. I liked this song from the first time that I heard it. I feel like Far Behind had a throwback feel (like to the 80's) but with a more modern edge to it. I dug it...and still kinda do.
Far Behind was one of the songs from their debut album that actually got quite a bit of airplay (at least in Tampa) during that time. Which makes sense, because it was one of the standout tunes on the album.
Anyway...Candlebox disappeared for most of the early 2000's while the members went off and did other stuff. But, but, but, they are back on the scene, baby! So, go on and get your nostalgia on and go see 'em live. Check out their website, here.
