All,
lad my list inspired some discussion here! There are some real gems
ut there from 2010 ...with Farrah as ground zero for pop perfection.
really am blown away by the intricacies of that album. It's simple
nd brilliant at the same time. Amazing. I'd like to add bonus
udos for Shake Some Action "Fire and Ice" as well...an album that
eally soars. They're a little indie pop band from Seattle, and I
hink most listmembers would dig them if not familiar.
As for Paul Collins...
ich is right - everyone's mileage may vary. And while I don't snub
nrehearsed, spontaneous scrappy rock n roll...Kings of Power Pop
ust misses the mark for me on several fronts: the songs are a bit too
y-the-numbers for my taste, and Paul's gravelly strained vocals are a
eal stretch ...almost impossible to listen to at times. I thought
Ribbon of Gold" from a few years back was a much more palatable listen.
