Meow Meow - Snow, Gas, Bones
(CD, Devil In The Woods, Pop)
Wonderfully melodic and slightly heady intelligent pop featuring occasional
bursts of unexpected random noise. Meow Meow sound something like a
cross between Fountains of Wayne, The Beach Boys, The Young Fresh Fellows,
The Flaming Lips, and The Jesus and Mary Chain. Snow, Gas, Bones is
an impressive voyage into the world of modern pop. While these guys
don't mind throwing surprise elements into the mix, the band's main
draw are their spectacular melodies. Featuring former members of Plexi
and Pink Noise Test, Meow Meow is not merely a new band rehashing prior
ideas. This album is fresh, vital, intriguing, and highly entertaining.
If you think you've heard it all before, think again. Intent is everything...and
these guys' intent is pure and real. Simultaneously challenging and
instantly memorable, this album is a HIT. Cool curious tunes include "Cracked," "Amourosis," "Disaffected," and "Wear
You Down."
Highly recommended. (Rating: 5++)
