Simply, this is one of my favorite records of 2007 thus far. Simply, Black Tie Revue = CLASSIC, classic power pop. It`s all here. Glammy, buzzzy `n cool chord changes and bubble-gummy melodies inside a sharp, loud guitar sound with lots of handclaps and sing along choruses. Black Tie Review successfully mix the top-40 rock sound with classic hooky pure pop riffs, and their vocals fit the style of music perfectly. Straight-up rock n` roll melodies, laced with power pop charm Hell, for these ears, this one will not lose its luster. Fans of classic Silver Sun, The Lolas, The Fags, Tsar and all kinds of favorites here. Its always a good sign when you cant find any weak song on an album and when you still want to dance while the last notes of the very last song are playing. BTR pummel through high octane power pop that crunches and massages the ears at ever turn.
There`s overwhelmingly catchy vibe here as songs splendorously drift from power-chorded anthemics to more open chorded sounds to sweeping, accessible and good-natured melodies---all wrapped up with memorable choruses you can just picture singing along to, fists pumping in the air in that great little downtown rock `n roll club you should be going out to more often than you are! HUGELY RECOMMENDED!!!!
