Fountains of Wayne is truly one of the all-time best when it comes to writing great catchy lyrics, hooks, riffs, and songs. But beyond that, they make their songs capture your senses with their expertise in mastering and production. Traffic and Weather is another addition to their list of amazing albums. This band is by no means a one hit wonder type of band, and their albums are by no means a single flavor. Every song they write has its own unique feel, while at the same time offering a familiar perfection that can only be Fountains of Wayne. It doen't matter what genre you prefer, everyone can appreciate and enjoy this album.
This is a wonderful CD. Fountains of Wayne has a 70's sound. I was a teenager in the 70's and this kind of music speaks to me. I really enjoy their storytelling... each song tells a whole story. I decided to buy it after listening to a segment about their CD "Traffic & Weather" on NPR and it did not disappoint. My favorite songs on the CD are: "This better be good" & "I-95"... but I really like them all!
Great album all the way through.
