THE MOTION SICK "The truth will catch you, just wait..."
2008(SELF) ¥1,365(taxin) NEW ARRIVALS 09.03.29
オルタナティヴ・フォーク以降のアメリカン・トラディッショナル・ポップスの良さを十分に確認させてくれるThe Motion Sick。前作もそうだったが、オルガン、トランペット、シンセと多彩な仕様楽器と自然なプロダクションにひたすら脱帽、そしてとにかくポップスを演奏することへのこだわりがハンパない。ハーモニーと時折FUZZベース&ギターが唸ったする名曲、The Owls Are Not What They SeemなんかはモロWeezerやRentalsだったりする(※彼ら自身ファンだと公言)けれど、それもカラフルなThe Motion Sickカラーでとてもマッチしている!!良い!!!!POWERPOP ACADEMY限定特典:ポストカード&ステッカー付
