reviewed by CR for Nothing Left
I think this band hails from Nebraska, but thank God they don't have a mid-western emo
sound. This is pretty cool stuff, because it has an 80's new wave appeal to it, amongst
others like Elvis Costello. I also think that is sounds like a cross between Weezer and
Weston. It's not that happy or quirky, but I could definitely see those bands going in that
direction. There are 12 songs on this beast, with "Syntax Lies" being the opening number,
grabbing your attention very quickly. "Some Incriminating Photographs" has definitely got
the guitar hooks of the album. I could describe the sound of the entire album as a rewrite
of the Pretty in Pink soundtrack, renaming it "Media." Very hip.
