CD Reviews

Too good not to review!

"I saw that this album only had one review on Amazon and just had to rectify the situation. This is one of the better albums of the year. The kind of music that you scream to in your car while pounding on your steering wheel. The chick is like Kim Gordan done right. The guys has an obvious crush on Frank Black and might, just might be able to out scream him. If not on this album, then perhaps on the next. If you like innovative punk that dabbles in pop, you must own this album. The Shanks (brother sister duo) might just be the most musically relevant sibling since the Carpenters. But, just to be clear, they rock a lot harder."

Music for hipsters to overhype, then forget about.

"Let's face it; if you're a New York band that's got a woman bassist with a husky voice, singing over deafening guitars, you're going to sound like Sonic Youth, and be compared to them. It's unavoidable. Sadly, what Skeet Ulrich is to Johnny Depp, Blood On The Wall are to Sonic Youth.

Too bad. They get off to a good start with "Stoner Jam," which has a "grey fall day in the East Village" vibe. The problem is, nothing else really distinguishes itself.

The majority of songs are just short, fast and loud. You can get away with that if you're The Ramones, and pack loads of hooks and melodies on top of all the #$@$-kicking guitars and drums. But there's nothing here to pull you in. It's just "hi, bye" and that's it.

"Awesomer" is around the same length as a bad TV sitcom. And about as much fun."

"The ripping-off of your favorite groups is replete. Mostly, it's really great impressions of Thurston, with some Frank Black added in for extra measure (Kim Deal, too). And the guitar work that follows. That said, this album is pretty good. I listened to it all day on a roadtrip and still wanted to listen some more."
