The Viewfinder: Fountains Of Wayne’s “Someone’s Gonna Break Your Heart”

Man, the videos are flying out from Fountains of Wayne’s Sky Full of Holes , eh? Barely a month after the clip for “The Summer Place” surfaced, the guys are back with a new “short film” (to use Michael Jackson’s favorite term)-this one for “Someone’s Gonna Break Your Heart”. It’s not a particularly thrilling video-tons of quick cuts, mostly live footage (or “candid” footage of the band members goofing around) mixed with beach shots containing a pretty girl and kids. It was probably thrown together for not a lot of […]

The Viewfinder: “The Summer Place” by Fountains of Wayne

Technically, we’re still looking at a little over a week of summer left. So it’s not *too* odd for Fountains of Wayne to just now release their video for “The Summer Place”, right? Adam, Chris and the guys have spent most of the past couple of months touring behind their excellent new release “Sky Full of Holes” , so maybe it was just a situation where the guys had plans to release the video earlier and just never got around to filming it? Yeah, […]

New Release Report 8/2/11: Fountains of Wayne Return and More!

One thing the sky is definitely not full of this week is CD releases. The past couple of weeks have been pretty quiet. Last week’s release schedule got a little smaller thanks to the mysterious disappearance of Odd Future member Frank Ocean’s album, and this week is another fairly blah affair. Thank goodness there’s Fountains of Wayne to give us a musical glass of water in this desert of a release schedule (strained metaphors anyone?) Sky Full of Holes is […]

Hear Here: “Richie & Ruben” By Fountains of Wayne

Mark your calendars for August 2nd. That’s the date that Fountains of Wayne’s new album, Sky Full of Holes, arrives in wrecka’ stows and digital music outlets everywhere. This is not only exciting because FoW is dope as hell, but because it’s been half a decade since the quartet released their last album. They performed songs that (I’m assuming) will make it onto Sky Full of Holes when I saw them in concert last year, and if it wasn’t for […]

They’ve Still Got it Goin’ On: New Fountains of Wayne Album Coming 8/2

I very, VERY rarely post press releases verbatim, but the news of a new Fountains of Wayne album is practically making me pee my pants with joy (and yes, strangely enough, I am wearing pants right now). These guys are the kings of power-pop and it’s been WAY TOO LONG since they’ve released a new album. They played a handful of new songs when I saw them last year and they were certainly up to the band’s high standard. Now […]
