Having just listening to their second CD, this group continues to amaze and entertain me. Their music is fresh in a time where much of radio is 43 versions of the same sound, while their lyrics spell out ideas and stories expertly written, and are by themselves poetic. This CD is an evolution of styles from the Beatles to todays Rock and Roll, highlighted by multiple harmonies in chorus, to amazing guit. solos. It is a CD that is a picture of what music should be. I strongly reccommend it.

The Jellybricks CD is the best CD I ever listened to of it's genere! It's tracks can't get any better and their talent transcends the known boundries. They are truly a gift to this musical world we live in and each day brings a new greatness to these wonderful guys!

It is great and fun music, mixed with talented musicians! What could be better? Go buy the CD!

Okay, so these guys are pretty good. Soapopera is certainly worth the measly $13 Amazon's charging for it. Who's to say if the group will ever make it outside their hometown or not, but their music is entertaining and makes a great way to help pass the time on long car trips. What more can you really ask for from a record than that

The Bricks are coming at the nation w/ a mix of poppy ballads and upbeat rock. The mixture on SoapOpera shows the range of audiences that they can reach. With songs likes "Preresquisite Rocker" and "Martyrs", the Jellybricks show their rock-n-roll side. Switching it over to ballads like "too far" and "bittersweet day" shows that the guys--Bryce, Larry, Garrick, and Laine--are indeed flexible. Take the time and check out this release you won't be dissapointed. Just another good band from Central PA, who also happens to be a group of great, laid back, fun guys

What is a Jellybrick? Those of you outside the Pennsylvania/Ohio region may be wondering. If you know the meaning of pop music, you need to familiarize yourself with the 'Bricks. The sophomore release by this pop quartet from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania rocks even harder than their first album, "Kinky Boot Beast". I've often doubted that it was possible to capture the energy of their live performance, and "Soapopera" has proven me wrong. The first track, "Speechless", describes my reaction after the first time I heard the album in its entirety. The harmonies alone made me anxiously await each track. For you rock fans, "Soapopera" doesn't leave you hungry. "Prerequisite Rocker", the answer to the Jellybrick's most famous tune, "Who is God," is full of energy, and if it doesn't move you, then there must be something wrong with your stereo. And for you hopeless romantics, "Soapopera" does contain some balads, including my favorite Jellybrick's song, "Fingernails." However, after listening to the album and weighing all factors, I must admit that "Martyrs" is my favorite song on "Soapopera." The lyrics are ingenious, and I can't get enough of those harmonies. "Soapopera" is a great musical achievement by a band that works as well together as all the songs on the album do. Now all I want to know is, when is the third album coming out
