Dream This is the debut album by Joe 90, released on Adam Duritz's label E Pluribus Unum through Geffen Records.[4][5]
Critical reception
[edit]Rolling Stone wrote that "singer-guitarist Chris Seefried steers along melodically facile, softly yelping rockers like 'Mascara' and 'Drive' - the album's showstopper - with velvety imprecision."[3] The Washington Post called it "a modestly appealing pop-rock release, boasting a few intriguing lyrics and more than its share of sturdy melodic hooks."[6] The San Francisco Examiner labeled the album "a charmer, a bouquet of instantly hummable songs that mix sunny melodies with provocative lyrics."[7]
