What, really, is the point of this composition? I searched in vain for any redeeming qualities. Of course, music appreciation is highly subjective, but this sounds rather like shite to my ears. Not so good for the ears. It simply does not sound good and wastes the stereo.

How long till these guys get sued by Apple Corps (The Beatles) for their name?

I prefer his singing to your constant downbeat rap.

I'm giving this an 8 because it's good pop. And also because lead singer Robert Schneider lives in Lexington and we have seen him perform and have met him several times, and he's just a really nice guy. You know, the kind of guy you want to hug.

You really need to see these guys live to appreciate them. They really are good.

Thanks, Bill, for telepathically knowing I'm plowing through insurance and benefits forms and in SORE need of a lift!  {#Bananasplit}

Agree! And Bill's fun segue from The Romantics is a nice remider that great power pop emerges from every R&R era.

Apples in Stereo, remind me of "Odds". Which makes me want to hear some Odds. I don't think I have ever heard Odds on RP. May I suggest anything off of the "Good weird feeling" disc by Odds. Their other discs are good too.

They were a Denver band. I know Robert Shneider is based here in Lexington, KY now. There was a good article in the paper about him (and this album) yesterday. Seems that he's become fascinated with higher math and has developed a version of a non-Pythagorean musical scale that he wrote this album with.
