If you like sugary sweet pop-rock with a smidge of up-tempo pop-punk thrown in for good measure, you'll most certainly love the new record from the Plain White T's. Their latest (and third) album Every Second Counts is full of enough catchy melodies and hooks to rot your teeth out after only a few listens.
My wife (as a fan of theirs for years now) would probably be more qualified to write this review than I am. She has been a big fan since the band formed in the Chicago suburbs at the opening of the new millennium. Heck, she even owned their first album Stop before it was distributed by Fearless Records. That's how (un?)punk she is. Anyhow, the T's (as always) have cooked up some good stuff here. What they are doing isn't rocket science but if you need a strong melody (and a stiff drink) because your girlfriend just dumped you, this is your record.
Below is a track from Every Second Counts and another that I heard a few weeks (or so) ago on the great local college radio station WONC. Be sure to brush and rinse thoroughly afterwards. RIYL: Spitalfield, The Stereo, Jimmy Eat World, etc...
