Power pop lives on in the skinny jeaned, parallel striped
shirt world of Army Navy. Lead singer Justin Kennedy writes about affairs of
the heart and sings with the airy, well-scrubbed breeziness of Glenn Tillbrook.
Their sophomore release, The Last Place, finds our hero at Relationship's End
(what a perfect band name) with someone who might be a celebrity and might be
married. Every sad-sack song is crafted for maximum sing-along-ability, blurring
the acidic effects of heartbreak like greasy burgers ease hangovers.
If you like Squeeze, Teenage Fanclub, early REM and the dB's
(especially the dB's on "I Think It's Gonna Happen"). you will love
this record. If you don't like these bands, maybe it's time you started seeing
other blogs.
