Not mentioned in the article: Ben Carey, who is a member of Ocianic, used to be the guitarist of Savage Garden (the band that consisted out of Darren Hayes and Daniel jones, as we all know). I think it's a nice link between the two CD's Alicia Morrison has reviewed. (and a great review, i must add!)

FINALLY! Someone discovers 'The tension and the spark'!!!!!!!! I got this the day it came out. It charted at 12. The next week it was at 80!!!! Such is the life of an english girl!!!!!!!!! It's lyrically fantastic, Void really stood out as a change from the normal Darren format. I know someone already said this, but Ben Carey used to be the bass in the Savage garden tournig band! He's on the Superstars and Cannonballs DVD, and I actually saw a Savage garden plectrum on ebay the other day which was signed by Ben! Anyways, that's enough from me. Love from an HUGE Darren fan! x

Great review! My brother had bought me the cd as a Christmas present. It is a wonderful cd. We need more music like this. This cd touches the heart and soul with its music and lyrics.

Great Review! The Tension and the Spark is an absolutely brilliant album. I love it, and I know that no matter how many times I listen to it, I will never tire of it. I'm so glad you discovered it and love it.

Great you found these 2 albums, I have them both and I agree they are wonderful. In fact I discovered Ocianic because of Darren Hayes, as Ben Carey used to play in the Savage Garden touring band. All wonderful talents from downunder.

Thanks for the review of the Tension and the Spark. As you say, its underrated! its such a technically brilliant album, and Robert conley's electronica only serves to accentuate the subject matter of the album. Darren is touring in the UK shortly - hes even better live! if you can catch him, DO!!!!! peace! Cheryl X

Great article! The Tension and The Spark was a brilliant album Alicia. Glad you finally found it. He has a new song out now called "So Beautiful". You might want to check with your local radio station and see if they have it! I have a site at darrensplace.net. Take care, Dawn
