That's right:
All Over the Place
Their first album kicks serious Power Pop ass!
Fuck you if you disagree!
(Have I been hanging at Hipinion too much?)

That's funny because I am listening to the original "Hazy Shade of Winter" on 97.1 right now.

(Not the Bangles version. ;))

I will say that their first album and the one from last year are perfectly fine. In between's quite a bit patchy. They didn't know whether to embrace the dumb-pop dark side or stick with their powerpop roots. They only have four albums. The second and third are mostly "meh," with a bit of "yugh," but the first and fourth are very good.

I also like that Hoffs still looks like an 18-year old pixie when she's in her mid 40's. All four of them are hot as hell live. Much more attractive the the watered down soccer-mom image many people have about them.

Re: Different Light

It's not a good sign when the four best songs on an album are the four covers on the album.

Jus' sayin'.
