I’m almost hooked
Another Chicago band, The M’s, has me under its spell. And I’m not totally gaga over their latest record either (Real Close Ones), but I dig their sound, obviously influenced by classic rock/power pop like the Kinks, early Who, T-Rex, Big Star… and I keep going back to it.
In case you aren’t familiar w/ them, check out this review from prefixmag.com, which I don’t completely agree with, but which does a good job of identifying their gradually changing sound.
For instance, I don’t hate “Breakfast Score” like Winistorfer does. I think it sounds like they are channeling Wilco in this song, which shouldn’t surprise since they are friends w/ Wilco and have opened for them before. Anyway, check ‘em out.

Oh man, I absolutely fell in love with that band over their last album, Future Women. An absolute must. The debut is pretty good as well. I think my fave track off of the latest is “Naked”, but as a fan of Nillson, I am more than a little biased.
