Insomniacs

"Switched On"

CD, Estrus Records, 2004

This disc was recorded by legendary (and local Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania citizen) Original Sins keyboardist Dan McKinney at his Dan's House Studio. Dan also adds some keys, finger snaps and "sugar" to the mix. The Insomniacs have refined their power pop and mod influences on this their 4th full length, to something that is smoothly their own. Besides the classic influences of the 60s and 70s, the precision of their pop calls to mind everyone from the Jam to Material Issue and the Original Sins. But this isn't pure sugar coated pop, rock is in it's core.
