"A Brilliant, important LP for these wild times....
The new lp POPARTGLORY is amazing!!!! I love it!!! Very rich in ideas and music.. and very wild and loose but at the same time tight..(if you can understand that!)... I love how the typical pop song Structure is changed on many tracks. My favz are: "Popartglory", "Angel"
"Midnight & I", "Daddy Dog", "Ken's Korubo",
"Keeping Ahead Of You", "Redsky".. I especially love the little bridge in the title track where it goes into that house beat with the piano... dope!! Anyone who loves the CREATION bands, will love this open-minded life-loving and intelligent music! MAKE A GENIUS MOVE!!"

"These guys have magic and passion, soul and vision.The opening track 'popartglory' is part primal scream but pure jasmine minks. With polemic lyrics that stretch the imagination, we can see that gender, class and race should underline our determination to make collective and democratic art through aesthetic and political interaction.Elements of wigan casino and the british sub culture that was northern soul music are prevalent in soul children and 3B48 and at times you can feel the influence of phil specter, warhol, motown and many others in this work of pop art which is a glory to listen to. Bloored ccr is all about bloored and bathurst in downtown Toronto and when you hear it you can just see the place it's so good.Every music collection with a conscience should have this minks WALL of sound (W - work, A - art, L- life, L - love)"
