This review is from: Truth & Memory: Live & Unleashed at Arlene Grocery NYC (Audio CD)

What do you get when you breed remarkably gifted musicians with brilliant, momentous and heartfelt songwriting? You get The Fenwicks! Is it rock, ska, or funk? How about all of the above, driven to panic point with tribal-like percussion, cool array of horns, imaginative harmonies and untamed `lead' rhythm guitar. The tunes will reverb in your head for days.

Ferociously independent in style and ideas, The Fenwicks holler that love hurts, society is ruthless and the world is a mess. Listen to the lyrics and become a believer.

Schub sings, philosophizes and entertains with Vaudevillian physical comedy, costumes and props. See them live and your cheeks will hurt from smiling. `Truth & Memory', recorded at a little Manhattan club in summer '02, captures the power and fun ... you'll be sweaty too!

A voice of their generation, The Fenwicks' statement is a modern version of the `live riotous or die' attitude we got from Indie pioneers like Black Flag, Minor Threat and Husker Du. The Fenwick experience is a reminder that musician's can have something to say and inspire you to do the `bone-yard boogie'.

Buy their album and listen to it - over and over again!
