I like the comment i read on a video "The jonas brothers....if they had talent." haha.
sounds iffy to me. I guess it's good if you look at it through terms of a pop rock band. But through a james Iha perspective.

no new ground being broken here, of course. sounds kind of 70s. not entirely surprising i guess. the kid totally hasn't given up his 'i'm the kid from hanson' faces, which made it humorous.
it's not the worst thing i've ever heard.
man, james looks
OLD.

I think the appropriate description for the sound might be, say, "Cheaper Trick."

Judging by the music from that video,they would make a great support band for Avril Lavigne...

Are you old enough to remember the Bay City Rollers??
I thought I was the only one.
I've read that when Malcolm McClaren was forming the Sex Pistols that he was trying to make the new Bay City Rollers.

I thought the guitars sounded kind of cool. Didn't like the songs that much... Ha, I actually liked the show bumper music more than their songs. But that fuzzy guitar... not bad.

This is really so close to being something I could like. I'm curious if they are going to push the envelope at all, or just keep to power pop revival. Like if this band was walking down the street it is pretty boring (like this video) but if someone tried to mug them I could see a real beast of a pop band emerge. They need a tour manager or producer that literally beats them up before they play. At least slap them a little.
