No Better Time by The Rallies

No Better Time byThe Rallies is a sparkling burst of jangle pop and a very worthy follow up to the 2023’s top power-pop album of the year, It Must Be. Set for a May 1 release, the Seattle band’s latest full-length delivers 11 tracks of pure melodic sunshine drenched in chiming guitars, irresistible hooks, and those signature lush, intoxicating harmonies that have become their calling card.

Power Pop Punch

From the Tom Petty-ish “This Time” to the acoustic, ethereal “If Only”, the album feels like a celebration of life in the here and now. “I Believe” has all the git up, guitar chime and harmonies necessary for a “hit” single. The bouncy and breezy “Comes And Goes” captures the beauty of everyday life. The melody sticks with you like those fabulous Brill Building tunes of yesteryear.

 “Notice Me” and “You Set Me Free” showcase the band’s knack for blending jangly indie energy with classic power pop punch. The punch and attitude of “Not So Much Anymore” make it an instant classic.

Infectious, heartfelt, and endlessly replayable, this album is a must-listen for fans of The Byrds, The Beatles, Tom Petty, Teenage Fanclub, or anyone who believes a great hook can make everything better.
