THE SHAZAM
Godspeed The Shazam (Not Lame)

Reviewed by John Sekerka



Hey what decade is this? I thought pure power pop was not only out of fashion, but out of sight. Shazam! I'm wrong again. There may be Cheap Trick traces here, but I dig the infectious Monkees style attitude. Bombastic guitar riffs, drum rolls, peppy vocals, sappy lyrics, and the archaic song fade-out, make for a bubblicious time warp. Shazam also happen to pen catchy tunes much like the dear departed Posies used to. A keeper.
