Editorial Reviews

Quirky pop, lounge pop, '60s-oid garage/psych pop, '80s-ish wave/pop, yadayada. The cover only lists 4 songs, but there's 14 tracks here, some of which are different versions of the same songs. The Pilgrims are a Sacramento pop band. And by that, I mean the traditional definition of the word pop. Song structure, melody, sophisticated yet simple sounding. It's all here on this EP. Songwriter/keyboarder/guitarist Ben Morss creates songs that are actually fairly complicated, yet they sound like anybody could play them. He also pens some funny words, like on Have I Told U that U Rock Lately which Morss actually croons in a sleepy pop mode. He sounds like a Vegas lounge singer, bringing back memories of Bill Murray's classic bits on SNL. That song is the highlight of the EP, but the rest of the tunes are good too. The deft touch of the Dark Lord, David Houston, can be felt as he produced the first 3 tracks, lending a real pop feel to the songs. If you like pop music, get this disc.
