The Minders – Hooray For Tuesday (1998)

ALLMUSIC If there is a definition for indie pop in the dictionary, there’s a good chance there’s a picture ofHooray for Tuesday next to it. The first LP from the Minders is full of hooks and harmonies that help define members of the Elephant 6 collective. With the help of the Apples in Stereo‘s Robert Schneider, the Minders succeed in making a pure pop record that doesn’t get annoying. The lead and title track, “Hooray for Tuesday,” is a classic and sets the tone for the album. While most of the record stays the course, “Comfortably Tucked Up Inside” slows down the pace just a touch and makes for a nice change, while “Our Man in Bombay” and “Bubble” give nice instrumental breaks. Sometimes it’s easy to drown in too much pop, but the Minders make great pop that makes the 30 minutes not only bearable, but enjoyable. ~ Tyson Bjorge
