Matt Sharp Subba-Cultcha Review
Considering that my knowledge of Weezer doesn't go much further than uber-single Buddy Holly,
I had absolutely no idea of what to expect from Matt Sharp. Thankfully, the ex-Weezer bassist
and front man of The Rentals, Sharp's self titled solo album is a quietly gorgeous affair. SC

Matt Sharp NME Review
NME review of 'Just Like Movie Stars' special edition 7" vinyl
Ex-geekster pop star with Weezer, ex-punk-rap-electro-rocker with The Rentals,
now Matt Sharp turns to the only genre besides skiffle he hasn't tried - nu-gaze!
Sprinkled with glitch-glitter, it's easily the loveliest record ever made by anyone
involved with 'Buddy Holly'. MB, NME
