Review by scoundrel Nov 27, 2005 (edited over 3 years ago)
While not as charming as KITTENZ AND THEE GLITZ, Felix da Housecat's follow-up DEVIN DAZZLE & THE NEON FEVER delves even more into the 80s music, particularly New Wave. Lyrics from The Neon Fever have a strong, rhythmical power to their shout. "Short Skirts" is humorously sexy, while "Hunting Season" is a unique take on grrl power. Elsewhere, "Everyone is Someone in L.A." is a wonderful electro send-up of celebrity culture, and "Watching Cars Go By" is appropriately driving. But other tracks ("What She Wants," "Let Your Mind Be Your Bed")seem rather rushed and not fully thought out, and others are too tantalizingly short ("She's So D*mn Cool," "Nitelife Funworld"), like embryos that haven't gestated. It feels as if Felix was trying to capitalize on the goodwill generated by the earlier album. But there's still enough here to warrant a listen.

An amazing cd by Felix. Track 10, labeled Watching Cars go by, is one of the biggest funky house smashes in my area. It has been used in many huge and famous mixes. The cd is of average quality, but there are a few standout tracks that make it a valuable purchase. Any fans of Felix's music should definitely pick it up.
