Free Music Review: One of the Best
Hit: 5 Stars
Melodic, intelligent, fun, power-pop. I'd always liked Cannonball and finally decided to buy the CD and I'm glad I did. The songs are immediately accessible and yet hold up after many, many listenings. This is easily one of the best CDs I've ever bought. Cannonball is still a favorite but Divine Hammer, New Year, No Aloha, and Invisible Man are all pop classics.Free Music Review: One of the Best

This album is wonderful. It is one of the few cd's I have that I never seem to tire of.Free Music Review: one divine album
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this CD in middle school, cause I had fallen in love with "Divine Hammer" (one of the most perfectly crafted and subversive pop songs ever). 6 years later, I've fallen in love with the entire album. Kim Deal's amazingly weird voice holds the songs together, all of which seem to have perfected the whole power-punk-pop styling thing. The stress is on the power & punk, but the songs are just too melodic not to be pop. "Divine Hammer" and "Cannonball" were the deserved hits, but pay attention to "New Year" "No Aloha" "Invisible Man" and "Do You Love Me Now?" "Do You Love" is a fun guess-Kim's-influences song. As some of the other reviews point out, this is a TOTAL summertime driving roadtrip album. If you listen to it in the winter, you're just not going to get the same effect. Pop it in your CD player and start cruising.Free Music Review: a memory that sprung back into existence

You remember bouncing around your bedroom in middle school to Cannonball when you were in seventh grade... admit it. Or if you were in seventh grade when I was you would admit it, we all did and some of us even went out and bought that little one hit wonder of a song on tape. I did not know the power behind that wonderful song when I was bouncing around... I knew nothing about the Pixies and I knew nothing about Kim Deal. I know my sister bought this album way back when and it surprised me that we agreed on something... she liked it because it had sprung out of something truly great. and I liked it because it was just plain fun.So when I was browsing around a used record store a few years back I pick up this cd with a dingy cover and a big smudge on the lyrics book and open it up... and what do I see but the hailed Kim Deal's name staring up at me. I remembered back to bouncing around my best friend's bedroom to the copy of the CD that she stole from her brother and I remembered back to a few hours earlier that I had been jamming out to Doolittle in my bedroom... Crazy stuff! So I bought it on a whim and I sure was happy when I got home. Not only was it just as fun as it was when I was in seventh grade, true talent truly did shine through.

Okay, I admit it...I found this record on tape about 5 months ago at a record shop in L.A. It was 99 cents! I hadn't listened to the songs on this album, with the exception of "Cannonball" and "Divine Hammer" which were furiously played on KROQ, since the record came out in 1993. Big, big mistake. The songs on this record take you by the hand and make you feel like you are falling in love with someone, EVERYONE! "Invisible Man"...oh my god...any song with Kim's voice that uses the words "sweet caress...." I mean, come on! It is not unlike an aural aphrodisiac! The opening of "No Aloha" makes me crazy every time I hear it. The guitar slithers and slides it 's way into your brain so that it's all you can think about the entire day. Rarely does an album make you feel PHYSICALLY better....but if ever there was a record this is it! I have had to rewind the tape over and over again to just to hear the beginning of the song and since I feel I have gotten my initial 99 cents worth of rock, I am springing for the CD today! Musical masturbation for the obsessive -compulsive -manic -depressive -low self esteem having -yet somehow "cuter" when they listen to this record kinda vibe! Kim--you rule!
