"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." |
