TOWNIES The Red Carpet Parlay of the Decade 1994

AllMusic Review by

The Red Carpet Parlay of the Decade is a somewhat developmental record; it's drawling minimalism is unique, emotive, and solidly composed, but doesn't come close to the more focused and dramatic recordings on The Apologetic Sound, the band's follow-up. Still, the sound of the band finding their voice is a good one, and the fact that The Red Carpet... is more conventional than its successors may make it more accessible to mainstream listeners.
