Customer Reviews Dollar store star Well, of all CDs I bought, this is the only one that wasn't chucked out of the window on the way back from the store. Every once in awhile I'll go into an Indian-owned Dollar store and buy a few of their $1 CDs off the rack. Mike G definately has something going here. Catchy and has the lo-fi feeling that many bands try to achieve. This one sounds like it was recorded in his bedroom. Its a cd that distinctly has an indie feel, a REAL indie feel. Its a great ad dition to my collection of good music out there. probably the best thing EVER I've been scouring the internet looking for more Mike G. I received this CD as a gift from a fabulous friend and it changed my life. This album is great to listen to while cruising with your girls. We've had some amazing parking lot dance parties to this fine CD. I'm horrified that this wasn't nominated for a Grammy. The lyrics are so insightful, they truly come from a gifted mind. . The lighter side of alt-pop. I'm caucasian. "She is Asian. " - Mike G's "Asian Girl" How refreshing. Mike G's collection of 16 bite-sized, hook-laden tracks is one of the brighter stars to come out indie label SeeThru Broadcasting. Like label mates Enon, Starlight Mints and Thou, Mike G has a distinctive quirkiness to his sound. The songwriting is light and fun (a la Beck), but the hooks are the, well, hook for Mike G. From the drum box on the very first track ("Clothing Store Girl") to the bass line on "Not the End of the World" to the piano line on "Sugar Daddy," the hooks provide the breezy texture upon which the album is built. .
