CD ReviewsThree corners, five groupsters, one helluva great album D. James | Melbourne, Australia | 12/28/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Terrific pop-rock, breezy and slightly kooky is this debut album from Melbourne quintet The Triangles. Often compared to acts such as Polyphonic Spree, Belle & Sebastian and even The Cardigans, there's something so fresh and infectious about this release you'll find it irrestible.
US music website 'Mundane Sounds' named Magic Johnson the number one record of 2005, ahead of new releases by The Darkness, Ryan Adams and The Eels. With that kind of endorsement how could you go wrong?" |
