Influences:
Sounds Like: The Media about:
'Beach, Blanket, Bingo..'
OOR: Even if it sounds a bit like Palace, Guided By Voices, Sparklehorse and
Deus. Who cares? This is a great album with beautiful pop music of a great talent
CARP: The first Dutch album in maybe 20 years that brings something extra to the music history, the rock of Merry Pierce contains the best of the last 30 years, at the same level as Calexico, Velvet Underground and Willard Grant Conspiracy.
FREE: Album of the year, oh mercy, what an album, a great mix of Pavement-guitars, Beck-electronics and charming Grandaddy-out of tune-singing, eleven songs of the highest lofi-level.
ALOHA: One of the best Dutch debut-albums of the last few years.
ALLES OP 10: What a brilliant album.
FRET: The Dutch answer to Pavement, Sparklehorse, Dump and Smog, one of the best Dutch debut-cds ever.
MEGAMEDIA: A very strong debut-album, the biggest Dutch surprise of this year.
PLATOMANIA: Samplepop like Bauer, Babybird, Badly Drawn Boy and Grandaddy, a lofi-top-talent from our own country.
HEAVEN: Brilliant songs, in one word: Bingo!
BACKSTAGE: Like a hot day at the beach looking at beautiful women, very exciting
