Album description

 Bryk's international debut, originally released by Scratchie Records in 2000.

"It's no small feat to simultaneously evoke Randy Newman, Elvis Costello, They Might Be Giants, and Momus, but Canadian songwriter Dan Bryk pulls it off with style and wit. Bryk has three assets that help his classic piano-man style find purchase in this cynical age: A fatally gorgeous and tactfully deployed falsetto, a minutely specific worldview, and a dash of lo-fi indie rockery to deflate accusations of retrofetish... a sparkling pop palimpsest."  -Brian Howe, Pitchforkmedia.com

"Gemlike acts of idiosyncratic genius... more proof of just how exaggerated reports of song's demise remain. A minus." -Christgau Consumer Guide

I'm horrible at writing reviews. Horrible. But I love this! So here is me telling you that you are wonderful. Goodbye.

Good pop album with idiosyncratic vocals
and lots of references to pop styles and pop titans of the last millenniums three decades.
A bit of softend "the stranglers" flavour, "Money Mark" alike vocals, but less bold, more pop.
If you can accommodate to his non sleek vocals you'll like it (very probably even very much).


nb: "You can copy, distribute, advertise and play this album"
So, why can't it be downloaded? Neither single tracks nor the album
Intentionally or by mistake? A pity in either case.
