Letters To Cleo - Wholesale Meats and Fish | 90s Album Review
from Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock · host Dig Me Out
Coming off the hit "Here and Now" from their debut Aurora Gory Alice, Letters To Cleo followed-up with the equally catchy Wholesale Meats and Fish. Lead single "Awake," with it's handclaps and catchy hook by lead singer Kay Hanley, is just one of many power-pop adjacent tunes that lean more towards the noisy side of the genre inhabited by The Posies and Matthew Sweet. But to pin down LTC would be a mistake, as the opening ripper "Demon Rock" demonstrates, or the sixties-infused "Little Rosa" demonstrate. The band packs a nice sonic punch, even when diverging from comfortable sounds for quieter moments that are hit and miss. Songs In This Episode: Intro - Fast Way 14:44 - Demon Rock 21:08 - Little Rosa 27:27 - Acid Jed 32:13 - I Could Sleep (The Wuss Song) Outro - Awake Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.
