Album Notes

"On The Move" avec Giant Value is the San Francisco indie pop trio's first full length album.
--"Well worth it. Giant Value churns out buoyant, countryish pop that practically forces you to smile. It's hard enough to resist the pretty melodies and whimsical lyrics ("Fishes don't have feelings; that's the difference between them and us") that define the group's recent self-released album "On The Move" avec Giant Value. But you can't fully grasp the band's sway until you witness Dena, Bru, and Vinnie at work...their easy, unpretentious energy seeps out and fills the room. Even if you're dead-set on ducking the enthusiasm, you'll likely fail. It's not that Giant Value play bubblegum pop; there's a dose of sadness in almost every song. But they do leave you wondering where most bands get the idea that in order to be evocative, they must also be consistently sorrowful." -- Tali Woodland from the San Francisco Bay Guardian, March 2003 --
