Stand Up by RCA

Top40 Music Store are happy to offer the fantastic Stand Up.

With so many on offer recently, it is wise to have a name you can recognise. The Stand Up is certainly that and will be a superb buy.

For this price, the Stand Up is highly recommended and is always a popular choice for many people. RCA have included some great touches and this means good value.

Dave Matthews Band's first studio album since 2002's Busted Stuff is helmed by producer Mark Batson (Eminem/Maroon 5). Stand Up's first single is 'American Baby'. RCA. 2005

Don't let the headless CGI dancer on the cover fool you. While Stand Up has a more organic feel than 2001's radio-ready Everyday, it is hardly an invocation for carefree days spent twirling on the grass. Instead it is a call to arms that carries over much of the insurrectionary spirit the Dave Matthews Band brought to 2004's Vote For Change Tour. Matthews, sounding rawer than ever, swerves between optimism ("To change the world you only start with one step," he sings on "You Might Die Trying") and angst ("See the man with the bomb in his hand/ Everybody wake up," goes "Everybody Wake Up [Our Finest Hour Arrives]"), while producer Mark Baston, best known for his small-time work with big-name pop acts like Beyonce and 50 Cent, responds by putting the marching band rhythms of Carter Beauford in the front and galvanizing the music with a crisp R&B edge, most evident in the totally - okay, partially - crunk "Stolen Away On 55th & 3rd." --Aidin Vaziri
