The Maxtone Four "Hey Hey Do It Anyway"

This is a crunchy pop treat along the lines of The Cars meets the Spongetones. The Maxtone Four delivers the goods when it comes to catchy, jangly guitar riffs and sharp-witted lyrical humor. From the opening track “Just Say I Know” you are know that this is what power pop fans live for! And it doesn’t let up. The hallmark of a great pop album is that the songs seamlessly create an experience that you want to repeat over and over again. The great energy also keeps songs like “I fu**ing hate this place” from becoming a routine rant and fans of Teenage Fanclub will enjoy the excellent guitar work. “Short pants,” “Okay you go first” and other songs here are just not just fun to listen to, but following the lyrics make it an extra treat. It’s hard to write about such a good album, I can only tell you to visit the sites to listen to it. Awesome music well worth adding to your top ten for 2007 list.
