The Galaxies: Here We Go!
I saw a writeup over at Absolute Powerpop on the new release from The Galaxies, called Here We Go!. I downloaded the MP3 version of the disc from CD Baby for $7.99, and I have to say that, although it's early, it's gone right to the top of my "Best of 2008" list. I'm a sucker for power pop in the vein of Cheap Trick, and this disc delivers the goods. Lyrically, they're tamer and more mainstream that Cheap Trick, but there's nothing wrong with a disc full of songs about love, especially these days. Musically, there's not a bad song in the bunch. It's a very melodic collection with the extra kick-in-the-pants you get from a driving guitar. I've had it in endless repeat mode on my iPod for the last few days, and it's still growing on me with each listen.
