Pro Reviews: Devin Dazzle & The Neon Fever
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews No one can deny the importance of Kittenz and Thee Glitz as a breakout record for Felix Stallings Jr. He had been kicking around since the late '80s, polishing his substantial underground cred, until spinoff singles like "Silver Screen Shower Scene" and "Madame Hollywood" aligned just so with the height of the selfconscious fashionista timewarp fad known as electroclash. At one point, Felix's mug could be seen in most American music magazines a baffling development to readers aware of the producer/DJ's past and the dancephobic tendencies of those publications. Kittenz and Thee Glitz's sharp, hypermelodic, songdriven nature helped steer some young indie rockers to "the other side" a side that can be tough to cross when the appeal of chugging guitars is much greater than that of thumping machine beats. Devin Dazzle the Neon Fever, the proper followup (after a pair of intervening mix albums), might actually bring some young dance freaks over to the rock world, since it relies heavily on the jagged guitars, rubbery bass lines, and candycoated choruses of new wave. One thing that has remained constant is Felix's predilection for concept records that play out like Bmovie soundtracks; basically, the protagonist (Devin Dazzle) gets swallowed up by the nightlife and all the alluring sleaze that comes with it, and he crosses paths with a group of females (the Neon Fever) who get off on titillating and maiming helpless victims. A handful of collaborators help out on the instrumental and vocal ends, making the record seem a lot less like the work of one solitary producer. Even without considering the theme, it's a fully realized record it's of that rare breed in which the least exciting tracks at least help carry the listener along. If label executives of 1982 were brought to the present day, they'd hear at least six singles here. Cap the whole thing off with a finale that would make any Italodisco producer proud, and you have a third successive Stallings fulllength that tickles all the pleasure receptors. - Andy Kellman, All Music Guide |

Pros: Excellant Beats!
Cons: Singing was strange.
I loved the beats, as always. Overall it was a good CD to cruise to.I did not particularily like the song "Everyone is Somone in LA." This is most likely because I am not too use to singing in Felix's songs. Another song, I cannot remember the name exactly, sounds strange...again there are many words in it.I gave this CD a low rating for the lyrics because where there were lyrics, they were not to good.
