TheOwlMag on Rooney
4 months agoArtist: Rooney Album: Calling the World Label: Geffen Records Genre: Modern Rock/Alternative, Rock/Pop Rating: Buy it >>
If you ever wondered where the oohs and ahhs of 70s power pop went, look no farther than Rooney’s Calling the World. Boston inspired riffs and ELO harmonies make this a whistle-along soundtrack, bundled in a tidy indie rock package. From synth and muted power cords to sultry vocals complements of Robert Carmine (brother to actor-drummer Jason Swartzman), Rooney’s follow up to their critically praised, self-titled debut explores more of their fondness for Cheap Trick-ish fun, particularly the addictively catchy, “I Should’ve Been After You.”
Follow up albums are hard to do, especially if your debut was as praised as Rooney’s, but the youngsters do well to expand their sound and find a niche that has been long missed.
