Yet another power-pop band from Chicago doesn’t exactly break the mold, but at least The Boolevards have studied hard prior to crafting Real Pop. The 17-track collection sounds like a better version of Tinted Windows had that act really channeled its Cheap Trick backbone, wrapped around Fountains Of Wayne’s wit and the sing-along style of Marshall Crenshaw, and set the Rickenbackers at full steam.– Andy Argyrakis

Studio News
September has been very productive so far. The 2nd CD is coming along nicely, with more studio sessions booked for the rest of the month. Another 17 songs will be on the next CD. If all goes well, it will be released in the Spring of 2010.
