Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Morningwood lead vocalist Chantal Claret endears herself as the self-proclaimed "Mae West of rock 'n' roll" (and scores bonus points for even knowing who West is), melding that welcome sense of sass and sex-tease with her band's anxious pop crunch to take the NYC club scene on a skittering trip back to its future on MW's full-length debut. It's futile to evoke pretensions of post-modernism for a band having this much salacious fun pumping up the hilarious urgency of the showstopper "Take Off Your Clothes" or giddily blasting Madonna's moribund club beats with bracing doses of decades-spanning punk energy on the bounding single "Nth Degree." Producer Gil Norton (Pixies, Foo Fighters) imparts a sense of accomplished abandon to the songs of Claret and bassist/fellow band mainstay Pedro Yanowitz, from the scorching buzzsaw-pop of "Jetsetter" and "Easy" and moody nerve of "Body" and "Everybody Rules" to the disparate teases "Babysitter" and "New York Girls." The sex-charged energy of Claret's chamaeleonic vocals should make her instant rock goddess, but it's the whole vibrant package here that makes Morningwood so musically arousing. --Jerry McCulley

4.0 out of 5 stars Retro Punk Sound with Superb Energy, January 14, 2006
By Debbie Lee Wesselmann (the Lehigh Valley, PA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)         
Morningwood's albums mixes a retro punk/new wave sound with the attitude of a garage band. Lead singer Chantal Claret has a voice that recalls the Go-Gos, Joan Jett, and Pat Benatar, though the music itself is more grunge than the clean, no-frills sound of the eighties (except for maybe "Televisor"). The band's name puts them squarely into the raunch school of music. The biggest flaw with this album is the lyrics, which aren't humorously inane enough to be punk nor meaningful enough to be good rock; they are lusty, lewd, gritty, but never deep. The guitar and percussion-driven music itself is great, especially with repeat listening.

"Nu Rock" is a fine opening track, with its aggressive, high-energy punk beat. "Televisor" shows more musical range; it may not be the catchiest song on the album, but it suggests how far this band can go. "Nth Degree" is perhaps the most pop of the tracks. It has a catchy tune and a strong dance beat, and Claret's spelling out of Morningwood's name at the end is oddly addicting, much like a commercial jingle. "Jettsetter," one of the best songs on the CD, gives us a sexy Claret whose voice shifts from baby-face crooning to the gritty delivery of hard rock, and back again. The opening guitar solo of "Body 21" sets the stage for Claret's sweet-baby vocals that are punctuated by an explosive chorus.

With Chantal Claret's charismatic vocals and the rest of the band's willingness to explode behind the strength of her voice, "Morningwood" is a treat. -- Debbie Lee Wesselmann

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Fun, Fun, January 11, 2006
By Brent (Utah, USA) - See all my reviews
This band kicks ass, plain and simple. It's just something you have to hear. I've written more professional reviews than this, but I'm too lazy this time. Trust me, you won't want to miss out on this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very fun CD, March 17, 2006
By Parkin (PA) - See all my reviews
  
Even though Morningwood's self-titled CD will likely not end up on my Best Albums of 2006 list, it's a CD that I will definitely keep playing. Because these songs are well constructed and because of Chantal's very charismatic vocals and lyrics, there's no reason to feel guilty while listening. Those who want the energy hardly ever ebbing will be happy.

Loved all the songs. Just hated the fact that they blocked out some cuss words. It's annoying when there is a empty space.
