"Smart rock has nothing to do with one-hit wonders, butt-shaking theatrics, soulless turntablists or alt-rock fakes. It's about brains, risk and imagination. And in this town, smart rock is the domain of Love-cars. [I'M FRIENDS WITH ALL STARS] shows the band unafraid of difficult tempos and arrangements, odd tunings and heady, illustrative lyrics. The band manages to pull it off without coming off as a winded, pompous quartet of academics who are too smart for their own good. ... Love-cars are a gratifying rock band for thinking fans, unafraid of attempting strange innovations in rythym, melody and emotional expression. " (Minneapolis Star Tribune, December 1999) |
