lemons are louder than rocks

=============================="The latest Philly-area band to take familiarly freaky leanings to cool new places, Jersey’s Lemons Are Louder Than Rocks rattle off puzzle-pop that you can’t help but hum along with. Their too-short tunes marry the easy breeze of folk with the eerie dimensions of a drug-addled psych, which explains how they can follow an acoustic show at World Cafe Live with a sure-to-be-volatile appearance at the Khyber. Not since Dr. Dog has our city seen such an accessible yet strange spin on bouncy ’60s songbooks: “Ballad in Anything but Eb” is silly enough for Sesame Street, while “Gallop” comes armed with dark lyrics and frayed pop edges. Watch this space closely." (Doug Wallen/PhillyWeekly) ============================== "Lemons Are Louder Than Rocks give fans an alternative to the regular outlet of pop by mounting it from a different perspective, while keeping it melodic sounding through its experimental phases. They are a band that makes a difference in the pop world with their first full-length album filled with indie-pop charisma and flighty rhythms."
