13 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Folk Rock, POP: California Pop
Details:
"While you could say they''re working loosely in the realm of Folk Pop, the Philly-based trio Maggi, Pierce And E.J. is certain to shatter any preconceived notions.
Not that the group-made up of two former members of the live Hip Hop crew The Goats-is blindly blasting away at the foundations.
Their most recent CD impacts more by its creative and subtle eccentricities the individual songwriters bring into the familiarity. The group''s songs roll with a stream-of-consciousness flow pulling from a limitless supply of inspirations and influences while never losing its oddly distinct catchiness.
MP&E has an almost Zappa-esque feel, not soundwise but in their expressive, boundless approach. Quirky without being goofy, poppy without being pandering, they''re a clever group of artists who explore the elasticity of the status quo without shattering the mold. Subversiveness at its best." - Cincinnati City Beat
"Maggi, Pierce And E.J. has its second CD out. It shows the band has a meaty and far reaching sound. The new disc is a superb melding of modern day folk-rock with an alternative slant. It even hints at bands like the Beatles. Best cuts on this excellent disc are the muscular rock of Sweeter and the ballad, Smyle, which features Maggi on lead and has wonderful harmonies. The stark and atmospheric Roadkill and the more guttural sounds of Slip show that this band has a unique and provocative sound." - Relix Magazine (Mick Skidmore)
