New album: Hidden Pictures || Well Hell

'90s/'00s power pop revival done right by Richard Gintowt and friends

Fans of ’90s/’00s power pop will get an immediate kick out of the new Hidden Pictures album. Well Hell is the band’s fourth, and their first in over a decade, although a recent single did catch our interest.

Band leader Richard Gintowt has filled the record with instantly likable songs that reflect where he’s at in life now. There are wry snapshots of adulthood and (failed) marriage (Mommy’s on Molly, Screentime), nods to his affection for country and Americana (Powder Blue, Hayward Hall of Justice), and plenty of power-pop craftsmanship that recalls bands like Fountains of Wayne and The New Pornographers. It’s an easy record to like, and an even easier one to enjoy.
