Heeeeeeyyyyyy Everybody….welcome to
another……poperific episode of Love That Album. I am joined by the bass playing,
list counting podcaster himself Mr Ben Eisen, host of the All Tim Top Ten
podcast.
For episode 76 of LTA, we are discussing the 1999
album by Fountains of Wayne, “Utopia Parkway”. These guys knew how to jangle a
guitar, stick a melody deep into the recesses of your subconscious, and tell a
tale about life in the suburbs. In the course of our discussion about this
album we also talk about the difference between homage and pastiche, why some
rock critics feel the need to trash people who live in suburbia (and why
they’re stupid for doing it), teenage rites of passage, great summer music, and
The Byrds. A really fun chat, and we hope you dig it.
Eric Reanimator also brings some power pop to the
virtual table for his Album I Love segment. He talks about a band from
Massachusetts called The Charms…and the name is apt.
