Album Review - The M's - Future Women
Judging from the press that it has been receiving of late, The M's just
may be the hottest ticket in Chicago at the moment, and on its first,
proper, full-length endeavor Future Women -- its previous, self-titled
outing merely compiled material from a trio of independently crafted EPs
-- the group doesn't disappoint. Where the ensemble frequently seemed
tentative and uncertain on its early forays, it now feels undeniably
like a veteran outfit, and throughout Future Women, it feeds the
clattering, garage-rock of The Kinks; the harmonic, R&B flavor of The
Who; the fuzzy glam of T-Rex; and the wide-sweeping ambition of Wilco
into a Phil Spector-sized Wall of Sound in order to create a delightful,
power-pop stew for the '00s.
