Submit Your ReviewWay back in the years of punk rock and new wave, and long before there was anything defining lo-fi, there was D.I.Y. Such is the aesthetic, which surrounds the Sneakers on In the Red. Catching Chris Stamey, Will Rigby, Mitch Easter, and assorted friends, neighbors, and total strangers having their say in various home studios epitomizes what the do-it-yourself ethic was all about. Blueprints for later groups were drawn in such places as "Decline and Fall" (Let's Active), "What I Dig" (the dBs), and the very D.I.Y. jam on that old staple "Roadrunner," all showing the embryo as it was beginning to develop. Garage power-pop at its finest, In the Red is a delightful look at pre-fame musicians doing what they did just for the love of it, warts and all. ~ James Chrispell, All Music Guide
