MAJOR FIND for Not Lame folks! No way around it, this is about a big,
big
winner! Fans of The Rubinoos will be in 7th Heaven, but The Peaces
play a
style of gently jangled power pop that leaves the knees weak. "Don`t
Take
It For Granted", which you should sample below, is a perfect
introduction to
the sounds of The Peaces. You dig this one, well rest comfortably in
the
fact you have more coming in the 13 songs that follow this one. Leader
Brian Halverson is a major find for fans of pure pop craftmanship.
Fans of
Cloud Eleven, The Rubinoos, The Merrymakers, Beagle, David Grahame,
Raspberries, Wondermints, Left Banke and on and on with all kinds of
reminders of bands most of us live for. Simply, The Peaces are a band to
seriously get hugely excited about. It`s feel good, happy vibes all
the way, but it`s not a geek-fest. " Is/Are Was/Were " is wetly
dripping w/
classic clean Beatle memories, pristine production values, lots and
lots of
ringing and chiming guitars that hit the spot at every turn and, of
course,
massive hooks and sophisticated craftsmanship. The Hallmarks Are All
Here.
The album never falls into the trap of being too limp as many bands from
this part of the world can and have stumbled into, the melodies are
always
engaging and bright, the vocals transport smoothly and easily into the
listeners` eardrums and jangle fans. Grade: "A+", it`s Mission
Critical for
a power pop fan.
