Description
The Memphis Flyer sez: On Memphis, the Magic Kids (Bennett Foster, Alex Gates, Will McElroy, Michael Peery, and Ben Bauermeister, with Scandaliz Vandalistz’ Alice Buchanan and Katherine Dohan apparently auxiliary members) showcase their genial, ramshackle deployment of myriad traditional, pre-punk influences: Peppermint Twist rhythms, Foster’s Lou Christie-style near-falsetto lead vocals, Beach Boys melodies, girl group harmonies, twinkling Phil Spector touches, orchestral settings. Grade: A-
