CD Reviews

Stupidly Undiscovered
Steven Alter | Redmond, WA United States | 10/31/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Do not pass go, do not collect $..., do NOT pay attention to the poor misguided soul who thiks this is a country album. (??????) Thibaud's previous two albums were enjoyable blasts of Tommy Keene-ish guitar pop, but this record takes it to another level. Hook filled songs, passionate singing and textured arrangements reminiscent of early REM or Toad the Wet Sprocket make this a must for fans of smart, melodic pop-rock. Play 'Unbroken' once and you'll be hooked!"
Another great Todd Thibaud album

"After becoming a huge Todd Thibaud fan with "Little Mystery" I quickly got a copy of "Squash", and I would say it follows the path set by "Little Mystery". Easy but solid songs, with good hooks, mostly positive lyrics and Todd's voice over it all. In my opinion, the overall result is not as tight as the previous CD, but that doesn't mean there are not good songs here. As in another review, "Dragging Me Down" is an excellent song to start your day, because it makes you be in a good mood for a while. "Sacred", "Uninvited, Overdue" or "Unbroken" are again, perfect examples of Todd's ability to write catchy songs that know when how to rock or when how to be mellow.



All in all, a good album which is the logical way to follow if you enjoy "Little Mystery" as much as I do."
This ain't country, honey!

"In spite of the moronic review here, this is not a country album. It is roots rock in the style of Hootie in the Blowfish, Edwin McCain, and Steve Earle. If you have ANY hesitation about buying this CD, listen to the clip of "Is It Love?" GREAT STUFF!!!!!Although Todd plays a tele and has a bit of twang, this is just good ol' fashioned bar room music. I love this CD and think Todd Thibaud is one of the best "undiscovered" artists around today. I found out about him through the rootsrocklive.com mailing list. Great music news and updates there!Anyway, don't hesitate to get this CD. It is easily the best of what is around.- Bob Ryan"
