Pro Reviews: Neopolitan
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews After re-locating from Canada to California, Warren Zevon took the Odds on tour with him, aiding in their major-label signing to BMG. Their debut album, Neopolitan, introduced them as a band with a slight alternative edge supported by a commercial-sounding base, appropriate enough to gain radio airplay. Both "King of the Heap" and "Love Is the Subject" contain the band's Weezer-like vocal style and guitar lines but only gained a minute amount of radio recognition, mainly in their homeland. "Wendy Under the Stars" turned a few more heads as a slow rock ballad emphasizing Steven Drake's warming voice while he recounts his first time making love to an older woman. The radio version included a change in the chorus, replacing one such verb with "made love." While sharper material emerged later on Bedbugs, Neopolitan represents a sufficient leap from the Odds' days as a cover band to a major-label signing. - Mike DaGagne, All Music Guide |

Between Craig Northey and Steven Drakes' beautiful harmonies, the clever, tongue in cheek lyrics and the support of brilliant musicians (Doug Elliot and Paul Brennan), this album is classic Odds. No one should be without a record that's this much fun.
