CD Reviews

This is truly fun blissful progressive pop. Serious but Fun.

Christopher P. Finkbone | Cincinnati, OH | 09/14/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I cannot even begin to say what a great band Head of Femur are. These Chicago kids have phenominal pop ideaologies. This and their first album have a great fusion of 70's (Sparks-like)glam, conventional pop, and even into various facets of Americana. To describe what I mean, let me take through the track "Easy Street". It is a song the has an upbeat pop structure. Towards the end, the song go into phenominal orchestral strings, which then fuses into a New Orleans style jazz break, and then ends with a mariachi latin style. This is all brilliantly done with extraordinary composure. This music is not for cultural morons. This material is smart, composed, and delightful. More easily stated I would say that this band is like Flaming Lips, early Genesis, and The Band rolled into one sweet package. HOF are exceptionally experimental and interesting. I truly believe in them and what they are doing. 'Chris Finkbone"

Nice Little Album

"I always like to give an album a few spins before deciding whether to keep it or trade it back in. This is an album worth holding onto for the occasional listen when you are looking for something a little different. It sort of hits me like the Flaming Lips; Quirky, fun to listen to but not something I am in the mood for all the time."
