The Bellfuries
Palmyra (Moe & Sal)Trading their rockabilly roots for a power-pop sheen, Joey Simeone and the retooled Bellfuries kick Kinks and Costello behind lilting melodies on their sophomore disc. Simeone's pitching vocal swoons lend "Give It, Get It" and "Death of an Idol" an uneasy edge against the bouncing harmonies, and "The Only Ghost There Is Me" and "All My New Friends" are tender gems.
