White Hassle's Life Is Still Sweet 6 song EP is indeed sweet, and leaves the listener craving more songs. Their sound is acoustic pop, heavy on the harmonica, and sounds a bit like a mix of the Violent Femmes, Bottle Rockets, Everly Brothers, Del Amitri and the Violent Femmes. It's a little country, a little blues, a little pop, and a lot enjoyable. I'm looking forward to a full length release from this very talented New York City trio.

That wraps up July's reviews. What do you think of the new format? Do you enjoy reading a lot more shorter reviews, or did you prefer the longer reviews with fewer CDs reviewed each month? Did you agree or disagree with this month's reviews? Participate in the discussion below.
