Release Notes:

Previously known as the ôthe best unsigned band in Americaö by Rolling Stone,
The Whigs have found a home with Dave MatthewsÆ ATO Records. Their ATO debut,
Mission Control combines the arena rock accessibility of The Foo Fighters and
the beer fueled garage rock of The Replacements.

Like a Vibration kicks Mission Control off with urgency as Julian DorioÆs
hydraulic drumming raises the tension and sets the pace.  Parker Gispert sounds
like Dave Grohl vocally but adds some nice filler guitar rhythms that give The
Whigs their melodic lo-fi garage sound.  ôSleep Sunshineö showcases the bandÆs
warmer side, along with the slow burning ô1000 Wives.ö However,  The Whigs are
best when they deliver the barn-burners of ôHot Bedö or the full throttle rock
of ô Already Young.ö  37 minutes makes for a short album, but The Whigs dominate
with an urgency thatÆs lacking from most of todayÆs ôgarage rockers."
