HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! Debut LP by Portland's new powerpop sensation THE CRY! emerging from the eclectic arts scene of Portland, OR. With heavy power-pop influences like THE BEACH BOYS, EXPLODING HEARTS and THE SWEET, the band has re-crafted the 2 minute pop song for a new generation. THE CRY! effortlessly merges 50's style vocal harmonies and the jangle of 60's pop hooks with the raw punkish emotion of the PDX street culture from which they come.
MUSICAL GOAL: "To be the best power-pop band in the world! Seriously! We mean it!"
FOR FANS OF: EXPLODING HEARTS, ELECTRIC SHADOWS, BITERS/POISON ARROWS, STEVE ADAMYK BAND, SONIC AVENUES, MOTHER'S CHILDREN, CUTE LEPERS, GENTLEMAN JESSE all of 70'S PUNK, POWER POP, MELODIC PUNK, POP PUNK
