comment
Stereophonics is a long-running Welsh rock band formed 1992 initially as a rock trio formed by vocalist and guitarist Kelly Jones, bassist (and not family related) Richard Jones and drummer Stuart Cable, with the former two being the only remaining original members of the band.Since the release of their debut album Word Gets Around, the band became one of the most successful bands in the UK, with eleven released studio albums, seven of which cracked the number #1 spot in the UK Album Charts, and various top 10 singles, with their biggest hit, "Dakota" hitting #1 in the UK Single charts, as well reaching the Top 40 in the Alternative Charts across the pond.

Take That, Critics!: "Mr. Writer" is speculated to be a dig of a music journalist who Kelly seemed to have a good experience with but have turned on them.

Perishing Alt-Rock Voice: Kelly is well known for having a very limited vocal range, which is sometimes described as a "whiskey vocals" by a few critics.

You Already Changed the Past
 Stereophonics (Music) / int_e9e2c54d
comment
You Already Changed the Past: In the "A Thousand Trees" video, a man sees his partner being hugged by a stranger. He assumes this means she is having an affair (though he should have wondered why she was so open about it when near enough to their house). He storms out after she gets back, and in the ensuing row on the street steps into the road as a car is going past, running him over - with the driver being the stranger from earlier, who then comforts his now distraught girlfriend - via the hug seen earlier. And all this for a music track that is seemingly about a report of sexual abuse by a girl against a man (the 'match that burned a thousand trees').
