  "Brit pop arrives in Chicago via Wurlygig, a Chicago-based four-piece that has a knack for mixing pop melody with guitar-and-drum crash. The Grand Prix Qualifier, Wurlygig's third album, opens with Andy Tidy sneering his vocals almost as well as Liam Gallagher on the Oasis-like "Small Electric Charge." In spite of that fact, the Brit influences in the music range farther and wider than Oasis. Spiritualized, Electrafixion, even The Who all show up here, mixed in with some power-riffed, home-grown Chicago "big shoulder" rock. That could be a messy mix, but Wurlygig has the intensity and songwriting skill to pull it off. This makes Wurlygig a band to know."
