Search - Troubled Hubble :: Penturbia

Catchy bounce-rock whose lyrics'll catch you off guard

Allison Heady | Iowa | 03/22/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This disc rocks for so many reasons. The evil infectious melodies, the perfect-length songs, and the cute liner photos. But more than all of those combined, it rocks for its lyrics. Where else are you going to hear a boy champion his canoe against the cool kids' powerboats? Or rail against his mom's migraines? Or make the happiest break-up album ever?



Buy it and it'll eat your heart in the best way."

Refreshing take on Pop Music

"Troubled Hubble is my favorite band right now. And the same should go for you, too. This album is simply outstanding-- TH fully understands the conventions of the pop music and indie rock genres, and is therefore able to create songs that are the creative pinnacle of both. Perhaps this album's most endearing quality is it's straightforward playfulness and celebration of the small, happy things in life. I know that sounds terribly schmaltzy, but if you listen to the album, you'll agree. TH uses a pretty straighforward four man setup-- drums, bass, two guitars. But their songs are just so... CATCHY. Thier riffs and basslines perfectly accompany the lead singer's optimistic voice and lyrics. Definitely, there is something intangibly attractive about Troubled Hubble's music that I just can't put into words. So you'll just have to listen to the album yourself."
