I’m a newer Apples In Stereo fan, getting into their last album, The Discovery of a World Inside The Moone and realizing that there is always a lot more to this band than what you see on the surface. Velocity of Sound is a fuzzy rock-fest that really raises Apples In Stereo in my eyes. They are more than just indie rock artists here. This is an album of Ramones-styled crunchy rock that really gives your stereo a workout. “Please� opens the album with a great fuzzy pop track with awesomely timed silent breaks. “Rainfall� is a little more what you expect from this great outfit but they have switched up to a fuzzy guitar sound throughout the album. Wait until you get to the last track, “She’s Telling Lies�. Put away that Donna’s album and buy this instead. Wow! Apples In Stereo has been through big line-up changes throughout the years but the one thing that remains constant is Robert Schneider. His songs are so innocent and quite accessible by anyone willing to give him a chance. This incarnation is the most rock and roll the Apples have ever been. I like it.
