Philadelphonic by G. Love and Special Sauce (lyrics & reviews) (986 words)
"Philadelphonic" takes a step backwards with songs that are not only mainstream MTV hits, but a bit too reminiscent of the early '90s Beastie Boys.
With G looking a lot like Elvis on the back of this cd, things seem to be kicked into highgear on this outing, offering many lovely cuts that are some of the best songs the band has ever conjured up with their magical melange of rap, folk, blues and rock.
Philadelphonic, overall, is a really good record, and I think it's well worth your time.
Philadelphonic: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com (305 words)
That wouldn't be so bad if Philadelphonic was simply a series of jams, but they continue to write material that feels like songs but never gels.
They turn out to be vehicles for jams and half-hearted, muttered raps, neither of which provide hooks or memorable turns of phrase.
That doesn't mean Philadelphonic doesn't sound good, since the group does have a way with a groove -- it just never really rises above the level of a groove-jam album.
