CD Reviews

Song writing, singing, and musicianship make this CD a must!
Martini Lover | 11/24/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"From hot lounge instrumentals ("Tiki") to the fun vocals of Scott Morschhauser on "Middle Class Hell" and "Cyclops Optometrist," the Metrolites new CD "In Spy-Fy" rocks! Woven together like the sound track to a spy movie by variations on "The Man From M.E.T.R.O." theme, these songs form an eclectic mix of spy, lounge, rockabilly, and spaghetti western. Instrumentation is top notch with "Nervous" Neal Smith providing the hot saxophone, to Morschhauser's cool digital vibrophone. Kathleen Gallagher blazes a hot guitar trail following the steady beat of Josh Duffy on drums and Devin Kirby-Hansen on bass. If you're like me and familiar with rock and pop music, you'll feel at home with this CD while taking a slight detour in the world of Tiki lounges and martini bars."
Wild, Cool, Swingin' (and a little Spooky, too)!

"Although I've heard tell that a Metrolites live show is not to be missed, "In Spy-Fi" is a delight and stands on its own as a tiki-tainted earful of fun. Morschauser's vocal stylings are refreshingly unconventional and uninhibited, and the lyrics can be a blast! The stellar saxophone work really grabs the listener, but all the instrumentation is topnotch. The original compositions have great depth, and provide deliciously unexpected twists and turns! The Metrolites' unusual selection of cover tunes (only 3 of 18 tracks) fit perfectly into their style: surf, spy, noir, lounge & spaghetti western are all fitting terms from the Amazon description - just put them all into a cocktail shaker with a dash of olive juice to get the mouthwatering dirty martini that is the Metrolites' sound!"
