Archer Avenue`s buoyant, muscular jangle-rock takes is cues from the The Old 97`s while funneling in a big dollop of non-retro garage rock. Whether they are paying homage to Jonathan Richman on Radio -- a rip-off that would make Ray Davies proud -- or on the actual cover of Roky Erickson`s You`re Gonna Miss Me, Archer Avenue`s full length debut features straight ahead, hook filled, twangy rock. Pete Anderson`s production has helped the band open up, breathe a little, and rock. -- Jeff Weiss, Miles of Music (That Phantom Sound)
