"It doesn't happen all that often, but sometimes a band proves itself within the first 15 seconds of the first song on their first album -- Love-cars is one of these bands. The opening track on CHUMP LESSONS, the bouncy, breezy 'Somerset,' grabs the listener's attention before it even gets to the chorus, and the rest of the record is just as captivating. Songs such as 'Lucky You' and 'Broken Toes' offer dark melodies and whispered vocals, while 'Letter Grades' and 'Blue, I Read' are more upbeat and energetic. No matter what the song's tone, the solid vocals and fluid guitar lines reign throughout ... Skillful songwriting is the key to CHUMP LESSONS' success." (Resonance Magazine, Summer 1998) |
