Editorial Reviews

THE TRIANGLES, FROM MELBOURNE, ARE SELF-DESCRIBED AS 'THREE GIRLS AND TWO GUYS WHO LIKE TO PLAY FUN AND FRANTIC HIGH ENERGY FOLK-POP' AND CAME TO THE ATTENTION OF HALF A COW RECORDS WITH THEIR DEMO OF THE WONDERFUL 'LET'S REPLACE THE CITYSCAPES'.ú IT DIDN'T TAKE MUCH FOR THE LABEL TO BE PERSUADED TO GET BEHIND THE TRIANGLES' NEW ALBUM 'MAGIC JOHNSON'.FEATURING TWELVE JOYFUL SING-A-LONG SONGS, 'MAGIC JOHNSON' IS A HAND-CLAPPING, FOOT-STOMPING, HEAD-NODDING ROLLER COASTER RIDE OF AN ALBUM.POSSIBLY SOUNDS LIKE.ARCHITECTURE IN HELSINKI, THE DANIELSON FAMILIE, THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS, POLYPHONIC SPREE, THE SHOP ASSISTANTS....

5.0 out of 5 stars Three corners, five groupsters, one helluva great album, December 27, 2005

This review is from: Magic Johnson (Audio CD)

Terrific pop-rock, breezy and slightly kooky is this debut album from Melbourne quintet The Triangles. Often compared to acts such as Polyphonic Spree, Belle & Sebastian and even The Cardigans, there's something so fresh and infectious about this release you'll find it irrestible.
US music website 'Mundane Sounds' named Magic Johnson the number one record of 2005, ahead of new releases by The Darkness, Ryan Adams and The Eels. With that kind of endorsement how could you go wrong?
