On “Motown Classics” A Loss For Words deliver exactly what they promise with the album… a bunch of motown classics in a poppunk version. Sure, it’s fun for a song or two. Maybe three. Hell, even four. But it all sounds a bit too much like easy money and not very inspired. I doubt anyone’s really waiting for this. After all the Gimme Gimmes have already been doing for this over ten years and I’m not even talking about the Punk Goes… series. There’s only so much punkrock versions of popular songs one can listen to before the novelty has worn off completely.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
