crash into june have set out on a quest to craft the perfect 3 1/2 minute pop song, and it looks like they're getting pretty darn close.

Here's what folks are saying about their debut release, from blind to blue:

Debut album from Memphis quartet. Nine years in the oven, carefully sauteed with The Posies and Candyskins among others. Crash Into June (they take their name from a Game Theory song) aren't shy about their influences. In fact, they lay their cards on the table from the first track. Pete Ham is, quite simply, a homage to the man who made Badfinger click. From there they check a host of Beatles-inspired luminaries, including Teenage Fanclub (on the chunky Aurora Borealis), Matthew Sweet and The Connells, to name but a few. Along the way they throw out an impressive selection of hooklines, while singer Dave Norris lets himself run a little hoarse in the best John Lennon tradition when he needs to. With every song carefully honed for instant recall, From Blind To Blue makes for a highly impressive debut - let's hope it's not another virtual decade before the follow-up. - Dave Henderson, MOJO Magazine (UK), March 2000


"From Memphis, come a band capable of dredging up old local archetypes from Big Star to the Scruffs, but modernizing them thru the glasses of influence of Matthew Sweet at his most sweetest and classicisms of Bandwagonesque-era Teenage Fanclub." - Bruce Brodeen, Not Lame Records.

"No, they don't sound like Game Theory, but they do a thick jangle that is influenced by Teenage Fanclub. They definitely wear their Memphis hats. Great stuff!" - David Bash, contributing writer, Amplifier, Goldmine and the Pure Pop Website.
