In fact, their sugary songs are so damn catchy, the band landed a song alongside Rooney and Phantom Planet on <I>The OC</I> soundtrack. That's not to say that they have a cookie-cutter L.A. sound. What separates the 88 from many of their musical peers is that they utilize the aural pawnshop aesthetic of janky guitars and amps -- intertwined with an unpredictable Flaming Lips-esque ingenuity. Their quasi-retro home base of classic pop is not too unlike that of '70s soft rocker Emitt Rhodes or Detroit's Brendan Benson. - Eric SheaPower Popen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 11:21:30 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.5243536&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fthe-88%2Fplaylists.rss Like their contemporaries Minibar, southern California's the 88 play contagious power pop that overflows with perfect multi-layered vocal harmonies.
