LOOK WHAT THEM SAYIN


SUMMER 2016 EDITION OF FERNDALE FRIENDS MAGAZINE

Picture


JEFF MILO (DEEP CUTZ)
...vivid and wildly imaginative ideas, veiled metaphors for his own life experience, in song-form, spanning a blend of genres from fantasy, to sci-fi adventures and hard-boiled, film-noirish mysteries. These piano and guitar-centric, hand-clap heavy pop ballads that he's working on are intricately sutured into unconventional song structures with a dazzling, sometimes dizzying patchwork of polyharmonies, doubled drum tracks and detached, tempo-defiant bridges evoking an aural sense of a song within a song. (Or, sometimes, that you are hearing nine voices at once... Wrong, you might be hearing 18 or 19 voices...)."
​

 I think he might be a savant, a sure-fire pop-song virtuoso, albeit achieved through seemingly implausible, long-way-around implementations of both whimsy and wisdom...

REAL DETROIT (DETROIT, MI)
Taking the blues of The Stones, The Beatles experimentalism and floating it down a Kinks river, 
The Good Things knows rock ʻnʼ roll.

FLY MAGAZINE (HARRISBURG, PA)
...a garage-y, Technicolor power-pop riot that smacks you between the eyes like a Styrofoam sledgehammer.

AMERICANA UK (UNITED KINGDOM)
...full of promise and thrills...more pushing the boundaries and they might be something great. 

DETOUR (DETROIT, MI)
A few years removed from the hype, itʼs a good thing there are bands like the Good Things around 
to wave high the flag of 
Detroit rock pride."

The focus of The Good Things isn't touring or performing, but releasing records that can be listened to over and over for those who enjoy these Good Things as much as Ryan does. Hopefully you're one of them. If not, you're still alright. Maybe. Maybe not.

That being said, once in awhile, a band may be assembled to promote a new release with a couple of performances and interviews and the like. Anything planned will be above this message.
