preview :: devin davis
Several of our favorite blogs are already on top of this, but a little bandwagoneering won't hurt Devin Davis, who seems to have a little gem of a power-pop record in Lonely People of the World, Unite!. There are 4 mp3s floating around the Web which have us salivating in anticipation of the copy we've ordered from the Web site as none of Borrowed Tunes' suppliers have it yet. These are expansive, exuberant, ragged songs that combine the headlong rush of Bruce Springsteen and early Replacements with a more orchestrated pop sensibility and innocent melodicism. They're over too soon, and we can't wait to hear more.
