(Clicka qua per la versione Italiana)
The Vandalias, from Minnesota via Michigan, play good old-fashioned power-pop,
but without Green's pathos or
Shoes' hooks.
Following the single Build This House (Tenpop, 1992), debut album
Mach V (Big Deal, 1995) is successful at what it does: copy the originals
(Byrds, Big Star, Raspberries, Cheaptrick). It is far less successful at
establishing a personal style.
The band released a second album three years later, Buzzbomb (Big Deal, 1998),
featuring more enthusiastic refrains (Big Red Catalina).
