Release Notes:
There could not be a more appropriately titled album
from Austin, Texas` Cherry Blossom Clinic who
continue to refine their own, dynamic and always
insanely catchy brand of Weezer-cum-Cheap Trick
power pop and "Hot Rock Action!" finds them with not
only their best sounding record but the songs to
match that achievement. Fans of The Lolas, Weezer,
Nada Surf and the long, sadly departed Cooler this
is one to key up on, for sure. As we have said
before, CBC are more like the buzzy anthemic feel of
early Cheap Trick combined with the new wavey buzz
of Fountains of Wayne playing Weezer tunes turned up
to `11` and they successfully mix the top-40 rock
sound with classic riffs, and their vocals so
perfectly work with the rocking pop here. All of the
songs here have those instantly digestible melodies,
short, concise guitar linse, deep, fuzzy bass,
pounding backbeat and those multiple layers of
guitar crunch yielding pure harmonic bliss: The
Sound Of Cherry Blossom Clinic!
"Guitarist-vocalist Dave Crow writes all the band`s
songs while heavily under the influence of `60s
Brit-popsters such as The Who and the long- defunct
Move, and more contemporary American acts such as
Foo Fighters, Weezer and Cheap Trick." - The
Oklahoman. Extremely Highly Recommended!
