Title: Outstanding Power Pop Effort
Review: It's hard to tell from the disc's opening track but by a couple of tunes in, Psychotic Youth are starting to tip their hand. By track five, a dandy cover of Cheap Trick's "Surrender", there is no doubt, this album is about power pop. It's mostly outstanding too. Okay, punk rock figures in the mix as well but it's those relentless hooks that'll bring you back to this time and again. Band originals, like "Girls Out of Reach" recall that late seventies sound. Without a ballad in sight, this makes the perfect disc to blast in the car and just in time for summer! Wow, I wish there were more bands like this!
