Not Great..........2002-04-24
First off, let me just say that I am a big fan of this genre of music. I love beautiful pop melodies -- even at the expense of substance. But this album is just too light and fluffy... and not in a good way. The musicianship is second-rate, the song writing uninspired and the production is flat. I can't listen to it without cringing. They have the right idea, and I hope they keep it up, but they need to make a HUGE leap forward.There are much better choices out there: Beulah, Jimmy Eat World, Guster, Pete Yorn. Your $$ are much better spent elsewhere.
well crafted pop songs.......2001-12-22
I owned Second Story by the Hang Ups, and thought it
was a very nice pop album. I finally came across So
We Go. This is even better. These guys play pop song
that are well written and include nice harmonies.
I highly recommend this CD if you are a fan of pop
music.
What ever happened to the Cyrkle?.......2001-06-03
Answer: they've been reincarnated as the Hang Ups. The same whispy hamonies, the same insipid lyrics. Maybe they got better with later albums, but this one is OVER RATED!
P.S. For those of you who don't know who the Cyrkle -- they were two whimps who put out a third rate Paul Simon song called "Red Rubber Ball."
dreamy or wimpy . . . it's a taste thing.......2001-05-01
The writers who classify the Hang-Ups with the other folksy yet atmospheric, what my friend calls "strum-a-lumma" style bands that populated the Sarah Records catalog have nailed it right on. Nothing wrong with that style, of course; basically, it boils down to taste. What adds interest for me is that these guys hail not from somewhere in a rainier part of the U.K., but from Minneapolis, home of the Huskers, Replacements, and Soul Asylum. I call it the Ocean Blue effect; for me, that's gotta score points on some level out there.
