Rooney - Calling The World










Photo


Artist:
Rooney

Review:
Four years ago, the debut from these L.A. boys earned loads of
Weezer comparisons and blew up a little, thanks partly to
O.C. exposure. Rooney's second album owes as much to
Seventies keyboard-driven radio rock (think ELO and Styx) as
Weezer, and it's even more hook-slathered and fetchingly tuneful
than the first. At worst, this means blandness - a couple of cuts,
including the arena-size "Paralyzed" and "Believe in Me," a pep
talk to a bummed-out buddy, are as risk-free as a T.G.I. Friday...
