Rolling Stone (5/10/01, p.84) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...[They] outshine most recent radio-friendly pop-punk, with instantly welcoming songwriting and ferocious instrumental skills that match their good taste..."
Q (8/01, p.122) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...For a first album, this sounds fantastic...an album of weight and volume...energetically played songs crafted the traditional way..."
Alternative Press (4/01, p.64) - 3 out of 5 - "...The pop prescription is here: happy hooks and wildly infectious grooves...Stacy Jones leads the group into musical rants, escaping the trappings of mindless pop while deriving some well-deserved rock-cred..."

American Hi-Fi: Stacy Jones (vocals, guitar); Jaime Arentzen (guitar); Drew Parson (bass); Brian Nolan (drums).

Recorded at Plantation Mixing And Recording, Maui, Hawaii.

A Boston band fronted by ex-Veruca Salt drummer Stacy Jones, American Hi-Fi is another heir to the Cheap Trick tradition of loud guitars, unpretentious attitude, and pop hooks galore. Said pop hooks are also familiar--"I'm a Fool" not only sports surprising high Beach Boys harmonies, it also quotes the chords from the Move/ELO classic "Do Ya."

Highlights include "Blue Day," a sort of 21st century version of the Beatles circa REVOLVER. "Flavor of the Weak" is an insidiously catchy tune about a girl who's disrespected by her slacker boyfriend, while "Scar" is a pounding riff rocker that makes the Cheap Trick connection especially explicit.
