Excellent sound with fun songs!

"Awesome CD, I found myself liking all the songs on this CD. All the lyrics are easy to understand and well written. The group has a familiar sound associated with all hit music, a terrific beat and a smooth harmony that is adventurous yet varied enough to keep you entertained for hours. I rarely let a CD play over but this one has been on repeat since I got it. All the songs (it's hard to choose a favorite considering it goes from one great song to another) have a certain quality that just inspire a smile and encourage fun thoughts (especially Blonde). I'm a soft-rock/alternative country fan and think it's just a matter of time before this band gets lots of radio play. I'm very happy I have this CD in my collection and can hardly wait for the group to record additional tracks."

Pure Pop for Now & Then People

"The cover is a bit misleading on this one. Don't think you are going to get some sort of heavy metal. This is power pop all the way, with a healthy dose of the late sixties thrown in for good measure. Trying to pigeonhole this band would be difficult, but certainly the Beach Boys, Jayhawks, Elvis Costello, Beatles (of course), a dash of Utopia, and a pinch of Teenage Fanclub. Certainly the harmonies are one of the drawing cards of this record, not to mention the endless supply of juicy pop hooks (just check out the riff on Saturday Girl to see what I mean). This one is for fans of the music that SHOULD be getting played on the radio but isn't."

How'd she get this power

"I went to the Bitter End club a few weeks ago to see my boyfriend's band. After his band played I was getting ready to leave, when this band Loaded came on. They were amazing from the first song! Great harmonies--terrific choruses. Every song was like a hit record. I bought the album and I haven't stopped listening to it. "How'd She Get this Power" is my favorite song and I also love "Covered in Love"."
