REVIEWS:

" It always annoys me when a one man band has a plural name; such is the case with the Femurs. But usually what annoys me more about solo performers is they're usually really boring. That's not the case with the Femurs' CD, which is packed with 21 acoustic and electronic songs that range from pop punk to indie rock. One guy, Rob Schaeffer, plays everything. He layers in guitars, drums and multiple vocal tracks, giving the music a full sound. It's catchy, low-fi and fun. " Tablet Newspaper (Seattle)

If you're thinking about buying this (which you most likely are if you are reading the reviews), think no longer. DO IT! DO IT NOW! The whole album is super catchy. It didn't take me very long to get into just about every song on this CD. You still have doubts? Don't. I promise you, this is a wise investment.

femurs rule
author: Nate
This is a great albumn. I did not give it the full five stars because it is not as good as some of thier other albums, but it is still super solid. It is the perfect mix of acoustic and electric down-stroking with great harmonies. A different song gets stuck in my head everday.

Great hooks; interesting harmonies; like a song cycle
author: The Summit
Very engaging debut effort, with the entire album as a whole telling the story of a love gone bad, a scarred (not broken) heart, and then redemption in a new, more fulfilling relationship. The songs themselves range from Ramones-like rockers to folky acoustic numbers (sometimes we get the same song with different treatments). The musical hooks are compelling and the vocal harmonies support the romantic theme of the piece. Can't wait to hear more from The Femurs.
