Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Hey, dumbfounded! Close your mouth--it's hanging open. Now dance. This band could beat you down like a punk, but they aren't going to--instead they'll get you riled up with a fervor that you haven't seen since 1967. I'll amend that: this album is from a time capsule, but it isn't as simple as listing a year or a place or even an influence. Just know that if you were in a gymnasium for a high-school dance, all would go awry if any one of these songs played--everyone sweaty and running their stockings and rolling their eyes toward heaven and shaking everything they got. Who are they like? Jon Spencer if he'd take his tongue out of his damn cheek. The Monkees, but sneering, with broken bottlenecks clutched in hand. This is sound collage before cut-and-paste, and Cato have taken nothing but the best. Let this be the soundtrack to your summer, before some major beer company snaps them up for an ad campaign. --Laura Etling

4.0 out of 5 stars Turn it up, July 11, 2002
By A Customer
Yes. Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes! This is what I am talking about. This is what I need. A Norwegian band that sounds like the Zombies with punk attitude. A group with a bearded singer and cute tambourine girl to boot. A band to make music perfect for the summer.
The Cato Salsa Experience follows so many other bands in the
supposed "Garage Rock" revival. For my money they are the best of the bunch. They are maybe not the tightest band in the
world, but they make up for it with pure sonics. The album starts off with that greatest of all rock standbys, the grunt. "Listen to me Daddy'O" is simple stupid fun. One of those
songs where you look in the mirror and scream "you dumbass, why didn't I do that?!" Its no fluke though, evidenced by the follow up "So, the circus is back in town" a great rousing anthem, as is the later song "Time to freak out!". "M.F." introduces my favorite aspect of the album, the organ. Man oh man do I love the organ. I think every band should have one. Honestly. Just check out that groovy solo on "Got soul if you want it" and tell me that the organ is not a musical must have. Come on. I dare you.
Now I don't know how they got away with it, but "I can give you anything" is a carbon copy of the old garage standard "I can only give you everything", made famous by Van Morrison and later
the MC5. From guitar to verse the song is a slightly modified version of the original, yet no note is made of this. Odd. It doesn't take away from the fact that it's a great song. And it
certainly doesn't tarnish the fact that this is a great album. With all the talk that America is re-staking its claim as the rock capitol of the world, its good to see that Norway can
still represent.

4.0 out of 5 stars ....Can't...stop....the...foot-tapping!!!!!!!!!, November 25, 2002
By Jacob (Chico, CA USA) - See all my reviews
After a few rotations in the ol' disc player and a live concert experience I can assure you that this album will rock your socks off. It is such a breath of fresh air to hear a band playing for smiles and leave the angst and self-deprecating lyrics to the million other bands that tout the "grrrr" of grunge days past.
Compared with other "throw-back" bands, CSE show some real power and creativity to give you what you heard decades ago but still sound fresh. Plus, they're from Norway! How cool is that?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great rock album!!!, September 4, 2007
By R. Myers (Ferndale, MI) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I can't believe I hadn't heard of them before. This album is a blend of straight up rock n roll with a heavy garage rock sound. Just get it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Underproduced rock 'n roll, as it should be
This CD is a breath of fresh air in these days of over-produced rock. The sound can somewhat be related to the older days of Lenny Kravitz with a little more of an edge. Read more
