88#qu. i'Y'HI Transmission: Please receive: 揙NE OF 2008抯 VERY BEST!? Got it? Well, come in
pdi=6<?bd give a try, give a listen ?it抯 all here below if you don抰 believe. Stop what
S?Bc~y yr doing ?just dig the grooves, the sounds.
WXLe,7y (}{_]X|e Now, Greg Pope is the leader of Edmund抯 Crown, long a fave here at Not Lame but
dU ,)TKQ this 揚opmonster?indeed!) thing? Gawd, Lawdie, it抯 freakin?great! Listen to
7`b lGzP_ Track #3 and #2 below for a bit of The Shazam. But there抯 so much here for
iY
^{wi~? *all* pop fans. Yes, The Shazam, Matthew Sweet, The Replacements(at their
+ z:CZ(fb
finest!), The Grays(track #1 below), Terry Anderson or Bill Lloyd(Track #6) and
-XBKOybHBO plenty of more of that where this comes from! Pope started this out seeking the
*?_qE help of others with this solo reach, but scheduled proved to be tough with
ptV4s=G2 buddies and he ended up playing all the instruments here ?to its great credit,
\}$*}gW[} it sounds like a band at work here there抯 so much connection of the instruments
.vv5 t to the material. Big 憃le Talent? You betcha ?in spades.
T!l
mO? Q D q/3E- y5 AbsolutePowerPopBlog nails it(as usual): 揚ope lets loose a total of 16 tracks
0LWdJ ($? here but there really isn't any filler. Opener "Sky Burn Down" lets you know
!uWxRpT,7 you're not in Kansas (or at least Tennessee) any more as he revs up a Robert
|Du,UY/ Pollard-style rocker in both sound and length (2:08). "I Got a Life" is another
EHp u*P~W infectious barnburner which recalls both Matthew Sweet and The Who in places,
0 jR){G9+ while "Lost My Friend" and "Playing Nashville" travel in more familiar Edmund's
wL'o ImE Crown territory. "The Only Thing I've Got" also clocks in around 2 minutes, and
CE ~r4 has a definite Alex-Chilton-by-way-of-Paul-Westerberg vibe. Other standouts
r_L
u~y| include the aching Jon Brionesque pop of "Only One You", the jangly "Footpath",
bt;lq!g the bright Americana-influenced "Little Things", and "Reason With You", another
A)8rk_92Q track that would have fit on nicely on Regrets of a Company Man(Edmund抯 Crown).
a*Rz<08 A real tour-de-force and with Halloween approaching, this Popmonster will be
y0,Ft/D scaring its way up my year-end list.?MASSIVELY, PROFUSELY Extremely Highly
