Bright Ideas (CD)
Their first full-on studio recording brims with confidence and verve. It's a rollicking, tuneful guitar-rock record made for driving fast with the windows down. Stripped down to the guitar-bass-drums essentials (with occasional violins and keyboards), these songs soar and harken back to a time when records had two sides, good songs were on the radio, and the word "album" meant something. More Badfinger than Buzzcocks, Bright Ideas captures the more rocking side of Portastatic that has emerged in live shows since the release of 2003's Summer Of The Shark.
