Big Pop Hit Alert
Hey, here's a good ole time at the stereo, the White Wires record. Nine songs of adhesive catchiness covering the full gamut of rock n roll history- they even cop the licks to "For Your Love" and "Summertime Blues" on two tunes and still make those songs theirs. I don't know, but I'm guessing serious music fans filtering their extensive record collections through a 1981 LA power-pop sensibility and we will have none of that reverb you've heard so much about. One-note solos done clean through what sound like well-maintained tube amps, and new wave ain't two naughty words. Apparently, this is a Canadian trio who originally put this out in small numbers and Douchemaster jumped on it, a wise move. Big hooks here, and singalong choruses for the summer that just passed. A convertible soundtrack to post-parade viewing number 13. For the love of Paul Collins, jump.
