-75 OR LESS-
album reviews in 75 words or less
(but words with 2 letters or fewer do not count)

If it weren't for the guitar squealing and the
static hiss that permeates the CD, Meow Meow's debut would undoubtedly
earn comparisons to Granddaddy and Fountains of Wayne. But with
the extra credit effort supplied by guitarist/noisemaker Kirk Hellie,
Meow Meow invades the Dinosaur Jr./Jesus and Mary Chain fuzz rock
world and does it with unrelenting passion and energy. The warped
Beach Boys style harmonies ("Sick Fixation", "All I Ever Got")
do nothing but add to the gorgeous and experimental sound. - chip
