If you're not a fan of power pop, then it's probably not going to be up your alley. But to answer your question: I think their voices blend nicely in their harmonies; the chord patterns and movements are pleasing to my ear and are a bit more ambitionious than your average 1,1V, V chord structures; the production sounds great but not too polished; and I find the songs to be well crafted and top notch. You can of course feel free to disagree on this and call it mediocre. I don't really care. I didn't offer this record up as a matter of debate as to what's so great about them. I like them and I thought maybe some people on this list might dig them too. If you don't like it, don't buy it. It's a free country. -chris ___________________________________________________________ T O P I C A http://www.topica.com/t/17 Newsletters, Tips and Discussions on Your Favorite Topics
