Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Pop music as it should be........2002-04-02

The L.A. based band, Girlfriend, fronted by singer/songwriters Phil Hyland and Robin Cryer present us with intelligent, slightly off-beat, lyrics and heartfelt and catchy melodies,

Unlike many pop bands of late, Girlfriend manages to entertain as well as inspire.

All the tracks are beautifully produced. The opening track, "Look", which proves a wonderful vehicle for Cryer's lush and full vocals, kicks off the album majestically.

"Tremendous", "Then The Rain" and "Here Comes My Heart" are also stand-outs.

But the emotional center of this CD is Hyland's wailing plea, "Lost Point." A truly affecting song that captures what it is like to be an artist, or anyone for that matter, in a state of depression.

Hyland and Cryer compliment each other wonderfully both vocally and musically, and they seem to have a complete commitment to and love for their work.

Here's hoping other rather tepid pop/rock get-ups start taking some cues from Girlfriend. Until then, all this reviewer can do is wait for their next CD release

5 out of 5 stars Eclectic? Fantastic!! The best Indie album in years!.......1999-07-16

I haven't had this much fun listening to an album in ages! Consistently surprising, tuneful and heartfelt, this makes a great addition to the CD changer in my car. It's one of those records that I never get tired of listening to. Cryer and Hyland are definitely on to something.

5 out of 5 stars Girlfriend-a stunning LP.......1999-06-15

The New York based band, Girlfriend, fronted by singer/songwriters Phil Hyland and Robin Cryer, is a refreshing break from the trite, banal and insipid world that has been pop/rock music for the last 10 years.

With intelligent, slightly off-beat, lyrics and heartfelt and catchy melodies, Girlfriend manages to entertain as well as inspire.

All the tracks are beautifully produced. The opening track, "Look", which proves a wonderful vehicle for Cryer's lush and full vocals, kicks off the album majestically.

"Tremendous", "Then The Rain" and "Here Comes My Heart" are also stand-outs.

But the emotional center of the LP is Hyland's wailing plea, "Lost Point." A truly affecting song that captures what it is like to be an artist, or anyone for that matter, in a state of depression.

Hyland and Cryer compliment each other wonderfully both vocally and musically, and they seem to have a complete commitment to and love for their work.

Here's hoping other rather tepid pop/rock get-ups start taking some cues from Girlfriend. Until then, all this reviewer can do is wait for their next CD release.
