BOW Music/Groover Recordings
Wow. What a tight bombastic burst of big glorious driving pop! When Jim Kelly at Parasol Records starts rearranging his top ten lists to squeeze in a last-minute contender, his band of choice is usually worth a listen, and indeed, this one's more than worth it. It's loaded with memorable melodies, powerful catchy riffs, gloriously full sound, poignant lead vocals, fun harmonies, and thoughtful lyrics. There are glimpses of references here and there, but they've really got their own thing going on. I'm with Jim: one of the year's best.
