Modcast #135: Power Pop Summer

Welcome to another mid-summer classic, this of the power pop kind. There's nothing better than the news that power pop legends Cheap Trick -- celebrating their 35th year of existence if you can believe it -- have a new album simply titled The Latest. Or that California's own sunshine power poppers extraordinaire, The Orange Peels, have a new release in the works. And if you throw in new stuff from the Beat Seekers, Baskervilles and Green Day, well than you've got a summer line up that is sure to be a winner. Pull a lawn chair, smooth out a blanket, pop open a cold one or six, and enjoy the show my friends.
