Reviews – Record#2

“An emerging, important new arrival on the power pop scene and the pay-off is big here on ‘Record #2’. Extremely Highly Recommended!” NotLame.com (US)

“With a strong British influence, Simon’s songs are kind of ‘pub-pop’. That is, rockin’ tunes without the drunk idiot spitting a pint down your ear. Rather, your ear can expect to be gifted with some of the best hooks and melodies around” Hot4s Magazine Australia ’Record #2’ is sure to be appreciated by fans of jangle pop and smart indie-rock.” WhitsBrain.com (US)

“Morel, while firmly rooted in that power / classic pop sound, is a singer with more soul in his vocals than any other in that field. For fans of superbly-crafted pop-songs who appreciate Jellyfish, Squeeze and The Posies this is the next album you should be adding to that shelf of special, classic pop albums. But the chances are there will be a gap where the album should be, it will spend more time in the CD player than on the shelf.” PennyBlackMusic.com (UK)

“the hooks are very catchy, perfect for throwing your hands in the air and singing along.” TheDwarf.com.au (Australia)

“The Australian based Simon Morel has produced a real gem of an album….an excellent album worthy of purchase.” PowerPopaholic.com (US)
