Outrageous Cherry
Our Love Will Change the World
Album · Alternative · 2005
Of all the many studious revivalists of ‘60s pop, few are as good as Outrageous Cherry mastermind Matthew Smith at paying homage to the past while crafting songs that feel alive and thrilling in the present. On the Detroit band’s eighth album, Smith excels at everything from the exuberant, brass-filled pop of “Pretty Girls Go Insane” to the sunny, Lovin’ Spoonful-worthy jangle of “Why Don’t We Talk About Something Else” before capping it off with “Calling”, an Oasis classic that the Gallaghers forgot to write.
