Editorial Reviews
Strongly influenced by the independent bands of the 1980s, the songs bring to mind the post punk playfulness of altered images, aztec camera and orange juice - a charming rural pop sound with banjos, glockenspiels, acoustic guitars and fiddles thumping away in a home recording folk pop style. a proud exponent of a ramshackle bedroom aesthetic, the music is strangely uplifting hillbilly indie, reminiscent of belle and sebastian, beach boys and dexy's midnight runners. with it's quirky indie folk sound and healthy lo fi feel, it fits neatly alongside contemporary artists such as adem, aidan smith, m craft, the fence collective, misty's big adventure and aberfeldy.

This 16-track compilation demonstrates a sense of humor--or an awareness of its own cheese factor--by sandwiching "Lambada" between the Gipsy Kings' "Bamboleo" and the Bayside Boys remix of Los Del Rio's "Macarena." The spirit of fun keeps this otherwise hopelessly diffuse set from falling apart while dancing between the flamenco guitars of Carlinhos Brown's "A Namorada," a house remix of "Oye Como Va," and Quincy Jones's Austin Powers fave "Soul Bossa Nova." Those willing to let go will have hit the dance floor long before Beck ends the bash with "Burro," his suavecito mariachi version of "Jack-Ass." --Rickey WrightCustomer Reviews:
Good spread of popular Latin songs.......2005-09-01
First Nine Songs Are Cool, Rest Are Boring.......2003-07-31

Their Name is Cute, their Monker is Cute, the Music is Cute....hell, They're Just Plain Cute. (They're Even Cuter Than Early Jonathan Richman Albums!) the Sound is Happy all Around...owing Much to Belle and Sebastian. But Like a Great Bullwinkle Cartoon, There's Enough Nuance and Depth that Adults Can Find Pleasure in it all as Well. They Take their Name from a Regendered Morrissey Song, which is a Cute Enough Act in Itself. The Boy Least Likely to Presents a Different Perspective in Pop Music...one Sorely Missing from Other Artists...done With Panache.Customer Reviews:
this cd is awesome!.......2007-06-27
Nostalgia at its best.......2007-03-09
PS Check out the boy least like to's version of George Michael's "Faith" on their website. It's super-fun too.

The best party!.......2007-01-19
But in fact, this British tweepop band ISN'T going to disappoint listeners. Their debut album "The Best Party Ever" is full of charming, kooky indiepop, which sounds a little like the Apples in Stereo trying out a twinkly country sound. I mean, who doesn't want to listen to a xylophone song called "I See Spiders When I Close My Eyes"?
It opens with xylophone and banjo, right before Jof Owen starts murmuring, "Staring up into the solar system/All the stars are fixed up in the sky./I just want to sparkle for a moment/Before I just fizzle out and die." The song alternately twinkles and stomps, as Owen sings about spiders, broken hearts, and peaches from a cherry tree.
They follow it up with a series of catchy little songs: the unpredictable electro ballads with handclaps, catchy country-folk laced with keyboard, swoopy little pop songs, bouncy guitar melodies, little plastic flutes, mellow acoustic balladry, and shimmering electro-folk about "chasing rainbows/staring out of classroom windows..."
I have a soft spot for little bands that create solid tweepop, and "The Best Party Ever" is a good example of the genre. They do misfire slightly on one song -- "Sleeping With A Gun Under My Pillow" is brilliant, but it has those drunken twangs sometimes. But it's one small spot on a great song, on an album full of adorable music.
The music itself is a heavy dose of solid acoustic guitar, playing some solid little catchy tunes, and heavily smothered in some pleasant ripples of keyboard and mellotron. But the music is also made sort of childlike and upbeat -- multi-instrumentalist Pete Hobbs also sprinkles in xylophone, harmonica, kazoo, flute, bells and who knows what else.
Owen takes care of the lyrical aspects of the songs -- his voice is very mellow and sweet, tripping along with the music. And his lyrics are adorable -- fruit trees, stars, warm panda cola, "monster" adults from a child's perspective, and falling in love in a way that changes you for the better. And moments of poignant brilliance ("If I looked all over/Different winter would the/Snowstorm fall as beautiful").
"The Best Party Ever" has some rough spots, but The Boy Least Likely To makes a brilliant debut that only promises more good stuff in the future. The boys least likely to.... did.
Instant Fun !!.......2006-08-28

The Best Party Ever
ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD ASIN: B000FH93MO |
Product Description
Children's innocence is magical not because of what they don't know-- sex, violence, mortality, Ashton Kutcher-- but how they perceive what they do know. In a child's mind, grown-ups are distinguished by their calves, raindrops on car windows can become aliens racing through space, and long backseat rides furnished with action figures set the stage for Lord of the Rings-scale epics. The Best Party Ever, which compiles the first three singles plus five new tracks from UK-based The Boy Least Likely To, shares that youthful, existential whimsy. This isn't children's music, but it takes a child-like eye to Postcard bedsit pop awash in 1960s California sunshine with hints of country and soul. Recorders,twinkling synths, handclaps, banjos, and glockenspiel accompany the requisitely shambling acoustic guitar on songs about tigers, monsters, growing up, and 'Warm Panda Cola.' The Best Party Ever is a thing of wonder, made out of rubber and springs-- heartache with a sense of humor. Yet above all, The Best Party Ever is as fun as pelting Susie Derkins with water balloons. 'I'm Glad I Hitched My Apple Wagon to Your Star' lives up to its lengthy title with the best-ever musical mention of antihistamines and the tale of an ill-fated Nashville excursion over 'Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da' oompahs. 'We never did get famous, but it made us kinda happy and it kept me off of drugs!' Jof explains. 'My Tiger My Heart' recalls a Psapp album title for a ballad that's a bit like 'Puff the Magic Dragon' meets Calvin & Hobbes or Winnie the Pooh, as Jof relates the difficulty of being 'friends with something that eats butterflies and pencil sharpenings.' The album's best song, the dreamy 'Paper Cuts,' channels Brian Wilson via Summerteeth-era Wilco through the lens of Aztec Camera. It's a broken-hearted ballad about helplessness against an ever-changing world, but it also points to the essential precariousness of what makes The Boy Least Likely To so appealing. -Marc Hogan
