Buttercup
“HOT LOVE”
RATING: 3 SOUND LEVELS
This San Antonio band is on the right path in its quest for that most elusive of grails, the Perfect Guitar Pop Song. “Hello, Goodbye” and “You’ll Just Have to Wait” snap and crackle, the title track feels like a ’70s sitcom theme, and “National Spelling Bee Contest” recalls fondly a crush’s girlhood smarts. Tunes after tune, Buttercup (name … hurts … to … type) remembers that structure is everything in guitar pop.
