ALBUM REVIEWSPick of the Chick: Our Favorite Releases, 1999-Present |
|
|
If it weren't for a superb press kit sent to us from Chicago's Utah Carol, Wonderwheel would have slipped right under our radar. We're thankful that it didn't. This album is an excellent collection of folksy pop-twang--Timbuk 3 meets Juliana Hatfield on valium. If this analogy doesn't sell you on the CD, then picture an album's worth of great songs in the vein of Yo La Tengo's "Summer." Utah Carol has a newer CD entitled Comfort for the Traveler, but Wonderwheel provides the best introduction to the band. PIGEONHOLE: Smart and catchy pop-twang delivered
by one of Chicago's best kept secrets.
