You Are The Sames
Pox World Empire
2005
Rating: 7 bull balls out of 10
While not sounding particularly like Superchunk, Durham, NC-based group TheSames still remind me quite a bit of them, especially the poppier side of Superchunk that has come to exist over their last few albums. There’s also a bit of Brit-pop/jangle-pop ala The dBs in their mix, and these two comparisons combined should lead you to believe there are more than enough catchy hooks for any one album to have on “You Are The Sames”. The eighth track “Downtown” is particularly stellar, and will no doubt make it on to numerous mixes I make over the next few months.
