"Heatwave," the funk-flavored track on the 1999 compilation Source Rocks, suggested Phoenix were another product of the French-filtered disco wave. However, United is suffused with breezy, retro-flavored rock numbers. Keyboard player and guitarist Branco was in Darlin--the indie act that spawned Daft Punk--but if they went one way, he surely went the other. United is reminiscent of West Coast American FM pop rock, with nods to everyone from Crosby Stills Nash & Young to "Jump"-era Van Halen. The thrilling "Too Young" and swooning "On Fire" are rattling good pop songs that fall on the right side of affectionate pastiche. "Summertime" is an enthusiastic power pop thrash, "Embuscade" a Steely Dan-styled jazz rock instrumental, and "Summerdays" a carefree country-tinged trip to the beach. Refreshing, intelligent and successful French rock--now that is a first. --Mike Pattenden

Great Listen.

I was a late bloomer to Phoenix. After seeing them at Bonnaroo several years ago I started listening to them a little bit. I've seen them live several times since then, and they've always been great. Phoenix debut album "United" (2000) is a pretty diverse album, a real gem in their catalog. The band found commercial success with "Wolfgang Amadeus Phonix" and "Bankrupt", but some of the band's best stuff is found on "United". Tracks like "If I ever feel better" and "Funky Squaredance" rival any tunes they've ever made. The album is fantastic, it's really nice to rock the entire thing in one sitting (I hope people still do that). It takes the listener on a journey across a ton of music styles and textures. This album is where it all started, and it's a great listen.

Like 1979 again....

I simply love this album - it really has a nostalgic up-tempo, yet relaxed sound. It's great for driving, working out, or just listening. My favorite on the album would have to be the instrumental "Embuscade" - really good stuff, with improvisational elements in it. If Phoenix would release a whole album of instrumentals like that, I would be first in the queue. "If I ever feel better" and "Summer Days" are also fantastic. Anyway, the rest of the album is great, with the exception of "Funky Squaredance", which is too all over the map stylistically for my taste.

A weird mix between rock, pop and dance music - this is actually kind've good if you're a pop fan, but most people won't like it

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2006

Pheonix is weird mix of rock and dance music which are both present occasionally. Most of the album is pretty catchy albeit cheesy and a guilty pleasure (I don't think you would show this album to your friends - see songs like "On Fire" especially), so at least there's something to hold your interest. Thomas Mars has a relatively pleasant voice, but he will definitely alienate some people as he's distinctly poppy (as opposed to, say, Nada Surf's singer who is poppy but still manages to be very likable). There are no bad songs here (though they're all forgettable), even if a couple of them are just "alright". There's a hint of 70's disco in some of these songs, especially the beginning of "Embuscade". "Definitive Breaks" is really the only song on the album that MOST people will like. The lyrics are nothing of interest - they're simply an excuse to have vocals. It's not a bad album - if you like the style and singer then you will find that it's simply "good". Pop fans might like this. Slighty recommended.

Highlights include:
"School's Rules"
"Too Young"
"On Fire"
"Definite Breaks"
the rest are pretty decent

Even though Phoenix's Wolfgang album is often the most memorable, this one clearly has their sound and their delivery behind every amazing song.
