Album Review

Los Angeles-based duo the Meadows don't just have all the right influences (Pete Yorn, Teenage Fanclub, Ryan Adams, and the Jayhawks) in check on their self-titled debut, they've also got a stunning knack for songcraft. Boasting alternating frontmen Todd Herfindal (ex-Blue Sky Roadster and Single) and Kevin Houlihan (formerly of the Fundamentals and Moontower), the pair join forces to assert — through this resourceful and immediately charming 12-song cycle — that they've spent enough time in almost-famous bands. From the heaven-sent swooning of "Been So Long" to the tender, reflective "Younger Yesterday," the Meadows' take on guitar pop — bolstered by thumbs-up harmonies and ace arrangements — can be as dazzling ("Turn It Around") as it is exhilarating ("Dreamer"). Highly recommended. ~ John D. Luerssen, All Music Guide

Pleasant...
     
by gosolar

The meadows certainly have a pastoral pop sound down (appropriate for their name, I guess) and unremarkable but pleasant vocals we expect from this genre. Perhaps they just have yet to stumble across the song with the right combination for radio. Unlike the reviewer above, I'm not sure "turn it around" is it quite. It seems the Almighty refrain is king in this industry, and they're not there. It seems like they could make it into radio territory, but there's not enough depth here to hold me long. Sounds good. Not essential.

Good Song Writing...a lost art
     
by blusxplsn5

The songs are well put together and if music executives wise-up "Turn It Around" will be a hit single and the perfect song for a feature length film. These guys are a definite up-and-comer.

rocking & rolling Meadows
     
by ebHouli

From hard rocking cuts (Long Goodbye) to gentler rolling tunes (Younger Yesterday), The Meadows are poised to explode onto playlists everywhere with a solidly written and well-performed first album.
