The NZA

Cloud nothings has really killed it with their last couple of albums. Super catchy stuff that does just enough with the pop punk/indie rock formula to keep my attention. Their 22 minute release with Wavves is a good summer listen.

im not always the biggest PJ fan, but i love that track & adore Mcfarlane's work on the video!

Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

 

In '87, Huey released this:

Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.
