Nada Surf's Matthew Caws isn't big on organized religion, but when the spirit does move him, it always has a soundtrack. And that soundtrack has come a long way over the last 16 years. You'd be hard-pressed to discern so much as a whiff of snarky 1996 hit "Popular" amid the bracing, impeccably crafted power [...]

Frank Yang Even in this age of band reunions run amuck, the returns of some outfits to active duty seem highly unlikely. Maybe the animosity between the principals is too deep for even the biggest prospective paydays to put aside, or the prospect of being regarded as a nostalgia act rather than active, vital artist is too unpalatable, or maybe the band's audience wasn't all that big the first time around and their legend hasn't necessarily grown enough in the interim to make it seem worthwhile. Any and all of these could reasonably have applied [...]

Maybe it still does. If not, it should! Nada Surf has long been the band you needed to include on your mixtape or was the right fit for a soundtrack. Matthew Caws [...]
Filed under: Video of the Day Artist: Nada Surf Video: 'When I Was Young' Highlight: "The video for 'When I Was Young' was filmed and directed by Phil Harder in our hometown, New York City," lead singer/guitarist Matthew Caws tells Spinner. "Because 'When I Was Young' is about my childhood I thought a video about a kid growing up in New York would be great. The only suggestions that went out to Phil were a kid growing up in New York and [...]
Nada Surf's new album'The Stars Are Indifferent To Astronomy' shows the NYC band haven't lost any of their melodic charm. Featuring guest appearances by musician Doug Gillard (Guided by Voices) and produced by Chris Shaw (Wilco) the band show an exceptional ability for remaining evergreen.

Nada Surf - KOKO 08/02/12 There can't be many other bands that leak effortless goodwill quite like Nada Surf. Releasing charming album after charming album they've built up a loyal following despite remaining, in the UK at least, neglected by playlist compilers and magazine editors.

Now in their 402s and boasting more than just a few grey hairs the [...]
Voor een one-hit-wonder heeft Nada Surf een wel hele lange adem. 1996 was het dat "Popular" een hit was en sindsdien is Nada Surf ondanks het uitblijven van nieuwe hits in de schaduw een constante factor gebleven in het clubcircuit....
