Music reviews of Heavy Songs
Music Review: Fab CD from the Fab 2 or so
Rating: 4 Stars
Shonen Knife has such a long history and such a wide range of material that each album is fun discovery. In spite of its snappy melodies and catchy guitars, Heavy Songs rates just behind Brand New Knife, Rock Animals, and Happy Hour - which by their standards make this a breezy, fun record full of humor and fun.
All the songs on the A-side are great, and the flip is solid if no revelation. But for most, this record definitely passes the test, and it unfailingly puts a grin on your face. Even the "heaviest" song here - "Heavy Song" - is a slow but wonderfully amusing story of Atsuko's attempts at dieting. Of course, SK fans will find this further evidence that they've rebounded from Michie's departure and their only truly disappointing CD, "Strawberry Sounds." Shonen Knife are a consistent and appealing band with an honesty that can't be manufactured.

Description of Heavy Songs
The beloved and prodigious Japanese rock trio, Shonen Knife, formed in 1981 in Osaka, Japan. Many albums, re-mixes and re-releases later, founding members (and sisters) Naoko and Atsuko Yamano are still at it. Heavy Songs is now in its first North American release on Confidential Recordings. Shonen Knife has been revered by a 'who's who' of rockers, including early recognition by Kurt Cobain, Thurston Moore, and Red Kross. This decade has already been a busy one for these unstoppable ladies who ROCK! Through gigging, recording and delighting their fans with their continues energy and dedication, Heavy Songs is sure to rock your world!Alternative Rock CDs
