Buy this album before all your friends do.

Spinto band shows incredible promise as a band with a knack for catchy rhythm and beautiful compositions that will leave you humming later. It is simply a matter of time and radio play until they go big.

Ok, the album is not perfect but it's close, close enough to warrent 5 stars.

My first taste of these guys was also an arctic monkeys show. These kids can play and play WELL. Reminded me a lot of a poppy wolf parade on speed. with more guitars. and a shy kid. yeah. Good band. Album sounds better than they sound live.

Nice and Nicely done is that perfect mid ninties indie album you never heard because it came out ten years later. Catchy hooks, smart choruses and a marching rhythm section lead you through a world of backyard gnomes, WB reruns, and of course, Atari. Utilizing two main singers, Nick Krill and Thomas Hiughes (who play guitar and bass respectivly), and led by Krill's Stephen Malkumus style vocals, the Spinto Band deftly manuever the indie rock totem pole without ever getting stuck in the same place. Oh Mandy, a beautiful mandolin driven tribute perfectly captures the bands irresitably poppy sound, while current single "Direct to Helmet" jitters its way into your brain thanks to Jeff Hobsons impecable marching drum beat, Hughes' matching bassline, and group harmonies that would make even Brian Wilson crack a smile..

Forget Pavement reissues, catch it before the hype and see a band that is right now making music to live by. Nice and Nicely done does not disappoint.

The only thing better than listening to this band's recorded material is seeing them live. Saw them for the second time last night and I'm hooked!

The Spinto Band could best be compared to The Unicorns, Franz Ferdinand, The Flaming Lips, The Walkmen, Hot Hot Heat, and The Strokes. What characterizes The Spinto Band is its sense of fun, the way its members revel and bask in the joyful pop of the music. Some bands take themselves too seriously; The Spinto Band is more certainly not one of them. If you pick up this album, you will feel like dancing, and you will not be able to get these incredibly catchy songs out of your head. Their live act also more than lives up to the album. The Spinto Band deserves recognition on a national level, and I only hope that it comes.
