Love That Album Episode 76 - Fountains of Wayne - Utopia Parkway

June 23, 2015

Heeeeeeyyyyyy Everybody….welcome to another……poperific
episode of Love That Album. I am joined by the bass playing, list counting
podcaster himself Mr Ben Eisen, host of the All Tim Top Ten podcast.

For episode 76 of LTA, we are discussing the 1999 album by Fountains
of Wayne, “Utopia Parkway”. These guys knew how to jangle a guitar, stick a
melody deep into the recesses of your subconscious, and tell a tale about life
in the suburbs. In the course of our discussion about this album we also talk
about the difference between homage and pastiche, why some rock critics feel
the need to trash people who live in suburbia (and why they’re stupid for doing
it), teenage rites of passage, great summer music, and The Byrds. A really fun
chat, and we hope you dig it.

Eric Reanimator also brings some power pop to the virtual
table for his Album I Love segment. He talks about a band from Massachusetts called
The Charms…and the name is apt.
