A bunch of catchy tunes here. Gringo Star aren’t just a clever name. “All Y’all” offers 14 tracks of poppy hooks and mid-’90s alt rock guitars.
“Up and Down” has a driving Britpop sound. I can picture Edwyn Collins doing something like this. “TransMission” is a little whiny, but it has the same style. I guess really the entire album features this same presentation of wah wah and back and forth jangly guitar.
If you want some piano, then focus on the waltz called “All Day Long.” It’s pretty clear that Gringo Star want people to think of the Beatles when they put out tracks such as this one.
“Eve of Your Expression” has a Saturday afternoon John Cougar Mellencamp feel to it. Despite the songs having a similar makeup, they do have definite personalities.
