POP40 – Dream Magazine
Review from Dream Magazine, California, USA
This collection of mostly Norwegian bands (Silly Pillows are from the US, and Orange Alabaster Mushroom are from Canada) is united by it’s devotion to the more enjoyable aspects of garagey psychedelic pop. Fine contributions from the Tables who have an almost comic take on compressed ’60s infused Brit-pop that rivals the Move in their prime. 19 tracks and really not a clinker in the lot says a lot for the taste and standards of Perfect Pop, but this sampler only makes me want to hear full length releases by King Midas, the Superman Can Flys, the Loch Ness Mouse, Robert Birdeye and Haakon.
