THE LEMON TWIGS
Everything Harmony
2023 Worldwide pressing

One of my favorite records of the last five years.
Beautiful harmonies, wonderfully written songs… I’m a big fan of these guys.

The D’Addario brothers are BOTH sickeningly talented, gifts they got from their old man Ronnie, who was Tommy Makem’s guitar player for 20 years.

This is wonderful, catchy, beautiful, sad power pop music.

Self-Titled Summer | Cheap Trick (1977, US)

Our next Self-Titled Summer spotlight is on number 335 on The List, submitted by mfennvt. This is the great debut album from the power pop group, released just months prior to the album with "I Want You to Want Me". Did you know they're still going strong? Catch them as the opener on Heart's upcoming US tour this fall!

MATTHEW SWEET
100% Fun
1995 U.S. pressing

One of the greatest (and most underrated) #powerpop albums of all time.

I know everybody and their mother loves Girlfriend, but this is MY Matthew Sweet album.
“Sick Of Myself” is Top 10 #90s singles for me, maybe even Top 5. It may be my favorite lead off track on any album ever, and it sets the tone perfectly for everything that follows it.
I saw Matthew at one of the WBCN River Raves around when this record came out. He was SO loud and SO awesome. As a second stage artist that year, he blew away half the bands that were on the main stage that day at Great Woods. We met him afterwards at an artist booth where he was meeting fans and signing stuff, and he was the most humble, sweet, down to Earth dude.

I will never ever ever grow tired of 100% Fun.
It is a perfect album.

Propeller Sound Recordings is having a $15 Vinyl Summer Sale. That means you can pick up the dB's first two LPs, Stands for deciBels and Repercussion, for $30.

Perhaps I'm being judgey, but you’d be a fool to pass this up. :-)
