17072014 - Army Navy "The Wilderness Inside"

Someone said this was power pop, and I really like power pop. The first song, "In Waves", however, has quite a bit more rain than sunshine, considering what I had expected. It's not really bad, and there's a Teenage Fanclub/Lightning Seeds-ish quality to some of the songs, but I'm not falling head over heels in love either, apart from with the song "World's End". And the fact that they also remind me of that British band with that vegan douchebag who shall not be named on my freaking blog, doesn't do them any favors whatsoever. In my book, life's too short for albums that make me yawn, so let's do the pun thing instead: "Army Navy? More like Ar-meh Maybe!"
