Talk about `classic Not Lame pop`!! We`ve been trying to get this CD in here for almost two years, intrepidly digging and digging deep to make the connection necessary to bring this out into the Not Lame light. Here`s a little list of the classic sounds here: Splitsville, The Rubinoos, Marvelous 3/Butch Walker, Jellyfish, Queen, Tsar, Cheap Trick, Fountains Of Wayne, The Elms, Bleu and The Churchills.... and on the more obscure side(well, for some you!) JTG Sound Implosion/Star Collector, The Rosenbergs, Maple Mars/OO Spies and more aggressive, updated sound of Danny Wilde`s Great Buildings band from 25 years ago. Translation: this is
classic modern day power pop of the highest sort. The center piece of
this album is the stunning "Plain and Ordinary", that takes the sting of classic Jellyfish and Queen`s slow building anthemics and creates a truly classic power pop song that I would argue is a hallmark song for the modern-day
indie power pop sound in the 00`s. "Rating: 5++. Charged up
bubblegummy rock that is so upbeat and ultimately dandy that you can`t help but smile and tap your tootsies...wonderfully uplifting pure pop music with soaring melodies that sound not unlike Jeremy Morris. They are not afraid of sounding upbeat and positive..their songs are instantly addictive..and the
vocals are absolutely out-of-sight!!!"-BabySue. It`s all very sexy and
seductive with smooth guitar powered dynamics turned up to make sure it`s
not too slick sounding or saccharine. Worth the wait? Listen on and let
it be known it`s big time Extremely Highly Recommended!!
