What's In Sean's Mailbox: FOW WOW
You know why 2007 is gonna be a good year? 'Cause the geni smarta--es in Fountains of Wayne (pictured here with Rachel "Stacy's Mom" Hunter) are gonna be all over the joint. Not only does the suburban-van-rocking quartet have a new album, Traffic and Weather, coming out this spring. But January kicks off with FOW leader Adam Schlesinger and buddy/former Smashing Pumpkin James Iha producing a great new disc from...America. That's right: The catchy SoCal soundsters are back with the 2CD Here and Now. What does it sound like? Imagine A Horse With No Name galloping thru a Newark strip mall. Or something like that.
Here's today's CD haul...
America -- Here & Now
Switchfoot -- Oh! Gravity
Trick Daddy -- Back by Thug Demand
Styles P -- Time Is Money
Pink, Fiona Apple -- L Tunes: Music From The L Word
Tracy Lawrence -- For the Love
