Citybeat's Mike Breen wrote, "The band's pop songs are especially impressive recalling The Beatles and early ELO in the best way possible." The addition of a live string ensemble has further textured The Newbees sound and live experience.
In a music scene that is pretty self-contained, without drawing a lot of "outsiders" (i.e. suburban folks who don’t go out after sunset, folks who just go to dance clubs, folks who only want to hear cover bands), THE NEWBEES might just be one of the most recognizable original bands in the entire community. But the band’s cheeky jingle in that Gold Star Chili commercial is pretty far from what the band actually does on its CDs and live shows. While still pretty playful, there’s a richness, masterfulness (in songwriting and performance) and ear-dizzying diversity on display on the band’s latest, Amsterdam, the third part of the Newbees’ "accidental trilogy," which follows the exploits and dilemmas of a "burned-out, overworked Rock band" in the never-sober Dutch city. The band’s Pop songs are especially impressive, recalling The Beatles and early ELO in the best way possible. But they’re also pretty damn good playing Jazz (the smoldering "Molly"), and the barroom strutter "Are You Kidding Me" sounds like Nina Simone going postal on a brassy Broadway show tune. Don’t let the chili ad fool you -- this is one talented band. -- MIKE BREEN

The Newbees,<br /><br />Welcome to Billy's Bunker (Music Reviews)! It's been busy in the Bunker.<br /><br />The latest review is of Wussy's self-titled CD released this month. That album is folk honest and rock hard. Chuck Weaver's guitar sound should be patented as "Wingéd Agony." This album by Wussy is a sexy, spiritual, human experience with folk honesty and cluster bombs of rock 'n' roll.<br /><br />Wussy (Eponymous) ~ This Wussy Will Hit You Like A Truck<br />IsWhat?! "NuTakes" ~ Avant Jazz Hip Hop Genius<br />Terry Riley "The Cusp of Magic" ~ Kronos Quartet & Wu Man..<br />Cedar Hill Refugees "Pale Imperfect Diamond" ~ Uzbek musicians, Appalachian singers and songs<br />Clare Means "White Bamboo" ~ extraordinary singer and songs<br />The Sundresses "Barkinghaus" ~ as though rock developed from 1920's jazz & blues<br />OGOGO "Redux" ~ truly avant guard guitar excursions and more<br />Jadoo "Prairie Fire" ~ improvised music from Uzbekistan and the U.S.<br /><br />Thank you for being my friend!<br /><br />Billy Sheppard<br />Billy's Bunker (Music Reviews)<br />www.billysbunker.com
