The Smithereens’ 2011 album came in #8 in John M. Borack’s “Top 20 of 2011” list in Goldmine Magazine, who called it “Powerful guitar pop like only the ‘Reens can do it.”
Reuniting with producer Don Dixon for their first collection of original songs in many moons, the Jersey boys sound as if they’ve never been away. As a matter of fact, tracks such as “Sorry,” “One Look at You” and “Rings On Her Fingers” make this sound very much like a worthy follow up to 1988′s Green Thoughts. Powerful guitar pop like only the ‘Reens can do it.
