Kings (and Queen) of Portland Pop
Michael Loveless | Seattle, WA | 10/20/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Portlanders Man Of The Year (aka MOTY) used to be known as Lolly until some sassy little English girl got successful with the same moniker and The Oregon Lolly had to think of a new name. 'The Future Is Not Now' is the long-awaited debut album from these 4 cheeky Portlanders and exceeds even our expectations here at Loveless Records HQ. Beautifully layered guitars awash with keyboards and clever-catchy vocal games make this the most easily accessible and pure pop fun release on the roster thus far: check a sample here or at lovelessrecords.com and I think you'll be swayed by the MOTY way...think Dandy Warhols, Blur...."
