Album Notes

T.A.B. recalls the time when music blasted from component stereos, tape decks on the beach, from car radios with the windows down -- back when melody and repetition were embraced and music was discovered by chance.

The tools are simple: Wurlitzer piano, strings, guitars, drums, Moog, trumpet, finger cymbals. The players are Greg Hoy - all that stuff; Dave Sharma (Moby, SubWara) - some drums & a little mix; Kati(e) Ender - cello -- with Rebecca Pronsky, Andrew Rapoport, Anthony Lee Rogers. Recorded to 2\" tape & computer in Brooklyn, NY.

\'Twice As Bright\' is the band\'s first album and first recording for White Shoe.

Time Out New York says \'Hoy\'s clear-eyed rock is fueled by straight-up melodicism.\'

The Deli Magazine says \'It’s nice to be reminded that AC/DC and Black Flag essentially both started with dirtbags who like loud amps...fits nicely into the company of artists from the previous decade such as Urge Overkill and Guided by Voices who fashioned Arena rock for VFW Halls.\'

Punk Planet says \'Fortified with 10 essential hooks that\'ll bounce through your head well after the disc\'s end.\'

Pittsburgh Post Gazette says \'A power-pop explosion fueled by hooks you\'ll swear must grow on trees outside the singer\'s Brooklyn window. Like Paul McCartney, only blonder.\' Pittsburgh Post Gazette (Masley)

International Cork says \'Muscular with brains, brainy with muscle, Greg Hoy writes the kind of left-of-the-dial rock that the repeat button on your cd player was designed for.\'

The Big Takeover says \'Sign me up for the next gig, and see you in the front row.\' (Jack Rabid)
