The Sweet Mack - Zoe

1. Zoe

2. Ladycat

3. Over Achiever

The Sweet Mack have released their second album which happened to be released as a 7". The album is titled "Zoe." This album shows off the band in a similar way in style and sound as their previous album. They have a very groovy indie feel to them. This album has a similar sound to that of Arkells or even a Tokyo Police Club, so if you like those artists, you could like this album. They have done a pretty good job on the album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has a really nice, solid sound to it. The instrumentation is not over the top and we like that about the band. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocalist has a very indie sound to his vocals, which works well here. The background vocals are also pretty decent as well, they seem to compliment each other. Both of the singers can sing, and they do it quite well. Although it is not my style, they still have decent voices. With the lyrics, the band has decided to go with singing about girls. This is a very typical topic for bands to sing about, but they do it in a 60's style that is tasteful. We figure that since the album is titled Zoe, that all three songs are about this certain person. If you are looking for a single to this album, there isn't one, so we suggest just listen to all three and then you will know if you like the album. The Sweet Mack have made this three song album really groove filled and happy. It has nice light indie feel and will appeal to a wide audience. Now just need to get out more. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)

The Sweet Mack have made a sweet debut album. This is their first cut and they are bringing it to you straight indie with a bit of a classic rock feel to it. These guys have something that fits within the new formula of canadian music and they do a good job of it. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded fairly well. Although the instrumentation is pretty average, they do use keyboards, have a little guitar work and have a lighter feel with their music. Now onto the lyrics and vocals, the vocals are quite high and light while the lyrics seem to have a good structure and some decently done lyrics here. If you are looking for a single for this album, there isn't one, so just pick a song and give it a listen to get the overall feel of the album. The Sweet Mack have done a pretty good job on this album and its nice to see a debut that has all of what this album has in it. We hope to see this band progress and play more shows to get the name out, but overall, good job. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)
