Honestly what I think is going on here is this:

You’re trying too hard to be different. You’re trying too hard to find the things that could be wrong instead of actually listening to the music. You speak as if you know that all these girls want to do is become famous and rich from their music.

Your references and metaphors are so off the mark (and tired) that my jaw dropped open. It’s hard to believe you think of yourself as having an insight into mainstream or indie music. Or music. I do believe the first few plants/responses in these comments say it all, about you as a reviewer.

Smoosh’s music while sometimes repetative, simplistic and obviously derivative is still very original, fresh and some of the most honestly hopeful and pretty music I’ve heard from female singer/songwriters; they will only grow and improve.

That they’ve chosen to stay out of the mainstream and avoid celebrity while at the same time slowly building peer respect and a fanbase is more of an achievement than you seem to think.

I liked the album very much. I’ve never heard any of the other artists mentioned, so it doesn’t sound at all like jumping on the indie bandwagon to me.I have to admit it is an acquired taste compared to the first 2 SMOOSH albums, but there’s nothing wrong with that.This one really grows on you after 2 or 3 listens.

I have been a fan since 2008 when I saw them in Austin with Dresden Dolls. They rock. You sir have NO idea who Smoosh really is do you? You are way too judgmental. My name is Teres, (pronounced with a “z”) French for Teresa, and that’s all I got to say…..

Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
