The Fools - Sold Out
February 1980
The Fools
Sold Out
Genre: Rock
4 out of 5
Highlights:
Night Out
Sold Out
Requisite 80s Cover: “I Won’t Grow Up”. You rarely hear a cover that fits a band quite so perfectly.
The Fools’ debut opens with a Pop Rocker that’s relentless and from there…
It’s a slew of Power Pop rockers that play out like a concert set.
It’s a thing in 1980: The shadow of The Knack before the hangover of the Knacklash.
If these guys aren’t the spiritual predecessors of, say, Bowling for Soup, then it’s Nerf Herder. They write really well. They have a wicked senses of humor. They bring it. Tracks like “Mutual of Omaha” and “It’s a Night for Beautiful Girls” might not be classics but they make me want to see that band live.
