5.0 out of 5 stars dealership will someday rule the world., September 18, 2000

after you buy this album (which i know you will), one of the first things you'll notice is a big star that says POP in the middle when you open the jewel case and take out the cd. see, this is symbolic. dealership has taken a look at rock stars, and they like what they see, but they've also got those guilty twangs of pop love in their system. someone i know even called them a "rockin' motown". now, i don't know if i'd go that far, but these kids do indeed know how to rock--and pop. their songs will crawl through your ears into your brain, and they will never let go. but you're better off that way anyway. they're so indie that they're not even signed, so almost every dollar you send their way goes straight to their pockets... maybe someday they'll be able to afford to play some frickin' all-ages shows in the san francisco bay area--or even in your hometown! regardless, i love dealership, and you should too. just listen to some soundclips, and you won't be sorry. personal favorites of mine include "my box", "fallout" and "green".

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooks? And how!, June 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Secret American Livingroom (Audio CD)

What a great CD! More hooks than a pirate's prothesis shop. Lyrics that will have you sobbing into your Trapper Keeper. I think these guys are going places. Buy this CD right now and say you knew 'em when.

5.0 out of 5 stars some dorky kid's amateur review (re-edited), July 28, 2002

this album is awesome. they define the work, which became the genre itself, called indie rock/cute pop. I have seen them live about twice and talked to them afterwards. How cool is that? ... The boy/girl vocals are very catchy. The biggest draw for me are the lyrics which are incredible. i can't imaging any other band pulling off "nerdy girl" with as much sincerity, technicality, and gracefulness.

it's also enjoyable and refreshing to hear French and Japanese lyrics done to fuzz bass and keyboards. go listen. like. now. ...
