This Affair Never Happened... And Here Are 11 Songs About It [CD] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

After the one-two punch of the band's first two releases--2001's How I Learned to Stop Worrying, followed by the drop-dead gorgeous pop stylings of Honey in the Hive--The Bigger Lovers have earned the respect of pop fans and press with their dead-on harmonies and unerring melodic sense. These guys have an obvious reverence for the Ghosts of Pop Past, yet manage to inject their carefully crafted songs with enough crunch and grit to hold their own with the best of the contemporary pop underground. After spending two years dazzling audiences with their driving live shows, The Bigger Lovers returned to Philly to record their third disc, This Affair Never Happened. Not content to thread water, stylistically This Affair Never Happened features everything you've come to expect from The Bigger Lovers and then some: soaring vocals overlaid with tight harmonies, explosive power chords and choruses that make you reach for the "repeat" button on your CD player. Produced by Brian McTear (Swearing at Motorists, Matt Pond PA, Capitol Years),This Affair Never Happened"is lyrically smart, musically exuberant and establishes The Bigger Lovers as one of the best purveyors of pop rock going.
