5 out of 5 stars Perfect album.......2002-05-15

Longwave holds a timeless reality not often found on an debut effort. The in your face lyrical onslot of Pretty face, to the sonic finish of make me whole. There has not been an album of such distinction an prestige released in the states for some time now. I highly recommend anybody with any taste for a fresh band with tons to offer now and in the future please pick up this disc without hesitation.

4 out of 5 stars A gratifying musical experience.......2002-04-27

When I first heard about Longwave I built up a rather extraordinary expectation of what they might sound like. Upon receiving the album I was confused and not particularly happy with my purchase. Later that night I decided to give it another listen while riding my bike home from work. Not only did my opinion of the music change but my expectations of the band had disappeared and were replaced with a non-judgemental approach to their work (somethimes you just have to allow the music to speak to you). I found (and still find) great lyrics and great music. Some of the concepts that are being used are brilliant and thought provoking in a reflective, life-affirming way. I look forward to more in the future from Longwave

5 out of 5 stars Yummy.......2002-03-16

Just found these guys. I caught them touring with The Strokes and yummy... what satisfaction. They have an EP and a single that was just released in the UK. If you get a chance to see them in person... you will be happy you did!

I can't wait for the next release. Give it to me!

5 out of 5 stars Pop Renaissance.......2000-09-04

Longwave's "Endsongs" betokens the rebirth of American pop music. Like many things in the states, this CD makes a distinct nod to its Brit-pop predecessors, but it ends there. This ain't no colony jam. Pure sonic innovation and agility. My favorite cut is "Pretty Face," a forthright, if sometimes whismical, riff on a girl and her tragic beauty. Think Rimbaud with a distortion pedal. I bought two copies of this CD because I knew my friends would want to "borrow" it. As predicted, I need another. Good work, Longwave!
