The Apples in Stereo
#1 Hits Explosion
(Yep Roc)
With 17 years of pop rockin’ under their belt, The Apples in Stereo collect their best tunes on one album, #1 Hits Explosion. For seasoned fans, this may not be a choice album as it’s really just a recap of what they’ve been enjoying for years. For noobs like, me the album is a great primer. With bright 60’s pop rock — think Beatles, Beach Boys and Velvet Underground — Apples in Stereo can cure your case of the Mondays in a pinch. Highlights: “Energy,” “Go” and “Tidal Wave.”
