(CR)HAPPY THANKSGIVING! /// November 25, 2004 11:48 PM /// dispatch from Chris!
(CR)HAPPY THANKSGIVING! (For, like, vegetarians and stuff). Today, in RiYL land, tofurkey and potatoes will be eaten and wine will be consumed. The Morningsides and the Wowz got the lead-off single and album reviews in the November Edition of England's Tasty Fanzine. Pretty cool, no? Of the Morningsides, they said: "If ever someone had distilled the essence of summer and pressed it on to a slab of vinyl, this is it. Top class summer pop, for these cold winter nights." Of the Wowz, they said: "[Long Grain Rights] is a joy to hear... and it contains some of the best quirky pop you will hear this year. Well Done."
The Morningsides also got a nod from trakMARX.com, who said: "NYC's the Morningsides play 60s garage rock with the emphasis on 50s rock n roll & early Dylan...
'Summer Song' sounds like Pavement sing Dylan. These boys piss all over the Kings Of Leon - & there are NO - repeat after me - NO - moustaches. Result."
In other news, rumor has it the Fugue's "Four Corner Races" single will be available here this coming Tuesday... Stay tuned.
