No secret around here that I really like the second album from Swedish popsters, the Moonbabies. It's titled The Orange Billboard and I pretty much fell in love with it from the first listen. Used the "Sun A.M." single from it on my last comp. Made some comments about it in a few posts around here that I later coalesced into a little mini-review at my site. But it seemed like it was just gonna be passed over by the national press here in the US since it's been out almost 6 months now without much in the way of buzz or chatter at the major review sites, at least that I've seen, except for a couple very nice reviews at less well-known sites like Delusions of Adequacy and Splendid. Until today, that is......

I was just checking some of my favorite music sites and lo and behold it is one of today's reviews at PopMatters. Not the lead-off big picture review (in this case they went with the buzz-worthy new one from !!!), but a very nice review nonetheless and some good publicity for these underappreciated artists. Borderline shill, I know, but it is a fun album with stellar production work
