NEW MUSIC REVIEW: THE CRAZIES WILL DESTROY YOU Megafauna CD

THE CRAZIES WILL DESTROY YOU / Megafauna CD / Self-Released / 2009

Unapologetic old-school pop like this doesn’t come around that often any more. It’s like pulling out my old RUBINOOS or RASPBERRIES records (OFF BROADWAY, anyone?) and enjoying their not-so-subtle charms. They’re not out to change the world, just make it a little more fun for 40-some minutes.

SOUNDS LIKE:

DEAD MILKMEN, NEW PORNOGRAPHERS, WEEZER

SUGGESTED TRACKS:
3 “Out Of Hand” (poppy and upbeat with sweet harmonies)
6 “Fake” (quirky pop reminding me of the dBs)
11 “Rabbitdog Lizardsnake” (a pop epic with ‘70s synth ala the KINGS)
