“Every song here sparkles with those affable harmonies we have come to expect from The Genuine Fakes.”
The full review can be found here.

Liner Notes is available now on iTunes.
British online magazine Uber Rock says good things about our latest release.
“Swedish powerpopsters The Genuine Fakes follow up their debut release, ‘The Striped Album’, with all the bits they had left over from those sessions – kind’ve like Dr. Frankenstein throwing together a Mini-Me from the slops bucket… for newbies of The Genuine Fakes this EP, or mini-album, is a great introduction to the band and, at nearly 30 minutes in duration, is only a song short of some full-length albums.”

Vesa from Finland, author of onechord.net (also co-host of Flavor of the Month which we visited in September) writes nice things about Liner Notes:
“These are not some barely decent tunes that didn’t make the debut album, because they weren’t any good. I think these are ridiculously amazing considering that fact and many power pop groups would have been proud to have written even one of them. While the debut was a loud power pop album best suited for Friday nights, these new mixes might bring some melodic greatness to Sunday mornings as well. “

Bill Kopp of Musoscribe says great things about our debut album.
“The Genuine Fakes’ recipe is equal parts Owsley powerpop and early 2000s pop-punk, expertly played and with dollops of catchy riffs.”
Another great album review just in from Absolute Powerpop.
“It’s one well-constructed power pop track after another, complete with hooks and melodies galore.”
Our debut album gets more praise as Powerpopaholic reviews it.
A nice review from Meadow Music. Definitely worth checking out!
“To make an even and great pop album is not easy at all, and after hearing The Genuine Fakes‘ new album it feels like they’ve succeeded in this”
Note: the review is also available in Swedish!
