"Wowser Bowser is the Atlanta, Georgia-based trio comprised of George Pettis, Jake Thomson, and Joe Crabb. We couldn't help but grin when we noticed the press released described these folks' music as "balloonrock" (hyuk hyuk...). Apparently they're fond of balloons and dancing...both of which will become more and more obvious the more you spin this self-titled album. What strikes us most about this album is the fact that this music doesn't fit in the usual twenty-first century mold. These songs sound like they could have been recorded in the 1980s or 1990s...but they definitely don't have that modern digital canned sound that is so common today. The songs are basic pop in some ways...but the arrangements and instruments used are slightly unorthodox...which gives the music an awkward sideways sound that is surprisingly unique and at the same time very...appealing. Although these words don't accurately capture what's going on, in some ways this music sometimes reminds us of a cross between The Church and New Order (?!!). Perplexing cool cuts include "Water Story," "The Garden," "Winter Child," and "To The Pleasant Life!"" - Baby Sue
