Album Notes

This dynamic four-piece has been keeping a busy schedule playing many shows in and out of Milwaukee and have generated great reviews and praise for their creative songwriting and dynamic performance.

our words: passionate, dynamic, creative, and brilliant
Reviewer: David A. Kulczyk :: Maximum Ink

"I could review this CD in four words: passionate, dynamic, creative, and brilliant, but I owe it to the Maximum Ink readers and the Dimes (sic) to expand on this review. Dimes are probably the best band that you've never heard of, and I guarantee that you will be hearing a lot more about them in 2002. The songs are constructed with melody in mind and the guitars are clean and loud. What more do you need? Singer/guitarist Micah Eberman sings like U2's Bono is his father, not that he sounds like Bono, but the passion, diction, and talent is the same. 'Always a Bridesmaid' by Dimes is a stand-out piece of work. The crystal-clean production by the legendary producer, Wendy Schneider and her Coney Island Studio, is quite possibly the best work that she has ever done, and that's saying a lot. Keep your ears open, 2002 is the year of Dimes."

You are so rock n' roll.

REVIEWS

"...Dimes has only been around a year, but it's ready to release 'Always a bridesmaid', it's slickly produced, emotionally charged debut. Fueled by a common love of skewed rock like Shudder To Think and Sunny Day Real Estate, the members of the Milwaukee outfit put a common-sense spin on their alt-rock."

"Dimes: Most women have done it at least once - foolishly agreed to be a bridesmaid. Pull that dreadful taffeta or velvet dress out of mothballs for the release party of Milwaukee's (the) Dimes. Their debut CD, 'Always a Bridesmaid', is a well-honed mélange of original emo/pop/rock tracks..."
