Classic modern-day power pop that is going to have pop pundits` tongues
wagging and our fingies typing accolades galore! Boston`s The Scheme
features David Thompson who was in the Pills and like his previous band,
there`s all the elements of archetypal power pop here on "Sunset On A
Daydream". Fans of Sun Sawed In 1/2, Sloan, "Bellybutton"-era Jellyfish,
Tiny Volcano and The Odds.Take sparkly sonic textures sprinkled throughout
the arrangements, add some shiny vocal harmonies all over the place(again,
ala J-fish) that shine and a bit of spice around spunky, upbeat melodies
and, finally, spread them out like sweet marmalade on a piece of crunchy,
pop toast and you have one classic gem of a power pop album that is going to
be one of the strongest indie releases of year.
Here`s what Boston zine The Noise has to say: "Paisley shirts, little toy
men made from apples and gumdrops and toothpicks, dreamy harmonies, crystal
clear production, soaring vocals, harpsichords and Mellotron synthesizers
create the best Beach Boys album that Brian Wilson didn`t have anything to
do with. Could almost pass for `Pet Sounds II`, if there were any songs
about surfing and hot rods. But, because he concocted this brew of
delectable pop in Boston, the songs are about sidewalks, front door keys,
and nightclubs in Cambridge`s Central Square. And the basic power pop
elements are all here, as well: ringing guitars, catchy melodies, and
break-up songs! If you`re looking for something a little different,
something with class and a touch of sophistication, then check out The
Scheme`s Sunset On A Daydream." - The Noise. Big Time Extremely Highly
