"The Spinatras" - sidewalk Sinatras getting a little too loose for an uptight society? The four city boys aren't shy about being themselves and having a good time with it on their new release, where "fun" is the keyword, and a wink and a smile take a preferred seat to a glare and a scowl.

Fronted by the "effervescent" vocal flavor of Brian Corley, the playfully spun, hard-rocking creation deals with every day issues on the smaller scale, where not everything's measured in such highly critical terms. Pop-flavored and oftentimes punkish, there's no deeply hidden messages or highly contemplative factors at work here, as this is easy listening to the fullest extent.

"Michelle" takes the lead and pays homage to an apparent favorite of theirs Michelle Pfeiffer. "My Back Pages" recalls the famous Dylan phrase and the reminiscence of youth. The title track features tightly wrapped chops care of Ross "Once the Boss but now going only by Friedman," who amidst any and all of the wide-stretching projects he's been involved with, really steps to the forefront here, keeping the volume respectable while adding the melodic touch. Take a spin, get a buzz, and enjoy the ride. You know you like it!
