The Millions "Disrespectfully Yours"


If you like your power pop with alot of muscle, we’re talkin’ Enuff Z’nuff and Cheap Trick, you may well enjoy The Millions. “On My Mind” starts with sweeping guitars and a killer chorus. The music is full of great guitar instrumentation that recalls Def Lepard, Zebra, Whitesnake and a tiny bit of Roger Manning’s Imperial Drag. “We’re Through” and the title track “Disrespectfully Yours” continue this sonic attack with a good melodic sense. The next track “island of You” bears a passing resemblance to The Churchills or Tories and is my favorite here. It has a great arena rock feel and the guitar work of Johnny Million and Dan “The Fox” Edwards are on par with the above mentioned bands. The album slowly begins to get heavier and the melodies are not as memorable on the second half, with “I’m So Lame” being a prime example. A lack of variety hurts here and it could have used a power ballad or two. Some of the songs here begin to feel a bit like filler at this point, but this is redeemed by the nicely done mid-tempo “Twice a Woman” and the energetic closer “Outerspace” with a fantastic guitar solo here. Make no mistake here, these guys have loads of talent and their music is also featured on the TV show “Laguna Beach”. Check out the my space page to hear some tracks.
