Thornley — Tiny Pictures

Tiny Pictures is a pretty solid alt.rock record. Most of the songs sound fit for radio, possibly partly in thanks to the godlike hand of Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger and his 604 Records. "Changes" is a guilty pleasure track, mostly because the lyrics are a little hillbilly and way more relatable than most of us would like to...

Thornley — Come Again

in
By Caitlin Hotchkiss (CHARTattack) May 11, 2004 3:04 pm
You've gotta hand it to Ian Thornley - when he says something, he means it. According to the liner notes on Ian Thornley’s first post-Big Wreck effort, "the melody is king." Let the coronation begin! Thornley’s Come Again is all about heavy, loud rock anthems ("Falling To Pieces") and even the slight deviations from this...

Fans and frontman Ian Thornley are more than ready to see Thornley's sophomore release, Tiny Pictures, finally in stores. When hit with the looming question of why it took so long, Thornley's...

Wow, I thought we were only exaggerating when we said that the new Thornley reeked of Nickelback ... but it appears that the joke is on us. This sounds exactly like all the other Nickelback-inspired run-of-the-mill rock radio fodder. Not that we were expecting much to begin with... I'm gonna go back to pretending that Ian Thornley only writes...
