The first Dipsomaniacs CD on Face Down Records - very raw garage rock, still lots of the poppy melodies Dipsomaniacs have come to expect.
Editorial review
The first album (barring a self-released demo) by New Jersey bar band the Dipsomaniacs is a cheerfully raucous power pop bash in the tradition of mid-period Replacements albums. Like Paul Westerberg, singer/guitarist Mick Chorba is an unpretentious lyricist with a knack for slice of life scenes like the mildly alienated opener "New Rochelle," and the standard two-guitar/bass/drums quartet plays with the proper ragged-but-right spirit. There's nothing on Smaller Than Life that will change the world in any way, but songs like the ultra-catchy, nearly Beatlesque "This One" and the wistful "Wanna Leave, Don't Wanna Go," which recalls '70s power pop stalwarts like Artful Dodger, have plenty of low-key charms. ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
Smaller Than Life is the first official full length from the Dipsomaniacs - dating back to 1996. The CD is raw and rockin' and the producion decidedly low-fi. The blistering opening track, "New Rochelle", is still a staple of the live show and worth the purchase in itself. Also check out track 12 "On the Tile" - another fan favorite.
