Dots Will Echo - Get Your Hands Off My Modem, You Weasel
CD - arrived December 10, 1997
This playful trio took a toy box full of smart pop influences -- XTC, 10cc, Kinks, Cheap Trick, Queen, insert-your-fave-here -- and gleefully dumped the contents on the studio rug, miraculously producing a cogent, accessible, consistently entertaining record in the process. Singer/guitarist Nick Berry knocked me on my ass with the exuberance of his performance; someone obviously neglected to inform him that rock is dead. His colleagues on keyboards and drums (like The Doors, the Dots are bass-free) are equally ignorant of their genre's demise, and I sincerely hope they can be kept in the dark until mushrooms sprout from their ears. Terms like "pop masterpiece" are beyond overused, but in the case of
Weasel, I'm afraid nothing less will do. Get this record. Now.
