Those of you who come to this space in search of quality power pop are in for a treat today!
Mick Fletcher sent me a link to The Dialers' self-titled LP the other day, and it was immediate music to my ears! The Dialers, now based in both Sacramento and Houston, feature ex-members of
BOATS!. Out now on the illustrious and ever-dependable No Front Teeth Records, the band's debut album is ten tracks of textbook power pop. These guys have that classic skinny tie era sound down pat with a touch of punk-pop influence on a couple tracks. This really hits the sweet spot for me: good, punchy guitars, melody-driven songwriting, big hook choruses, and lyrics about love and heartbreak. What could be better?
Digital album is a $5 download from Bandcamp, while No Front Teeth is
offering three different versions of the vinyl. This thing really scratches my eternal itch for power pop. Good call, Mick!
