Polyphonic Press: Classic Album Reviews
Polyphonic Press is the show for music fans. Anywhere from the casual listener to the nerdiest of audiophiles. Each week, we review a classic album from a curated list of over one thousand releases, spanning multiples genres. At the top of each show, we have no idea what album we’re going to listen to. So we fire up the Random Album Generator and it gives the album of the week. Join us every Tuesday morning for a new classic album to discover!
Polyphonic Press: Classic Album Reviews
My Aim is True by Elvis Costello - Ep. 88
My Aim Is True is the 1977 debut album by Elvis Costello, marking the arrival of one of rock’s sharpest songwriters. Blending elements of punk, new wave, and pub rock, the album delivers a raw yet sophisticated sound, filled with biting lyrics and infectious melodies. Backed by the American band Clover (before forming his own group, The Attractions), Costello crafts anthems of love, anger, and rebellion with tracks like Alison, Watching the Detectives, and Less Than Zero. With its nervy energy and literate songwriting, My Aim Is True set the stage for Costello’s prolific and influential career.
