Hidden Chord 7" reviewed in Skyscraper

Our Hidden Chord 7", along with their simultaneous 7" on Modern Radio, was reviewed in Skyscraper #7 (Spring 2000):

Another new band featuring "former members of" another mid-Nineties post-hardcore great is THE HIDDEN CHORD. The Minneapolis quartet, who boasts former members of Ordination of Aaron (as well as members of Killsadie and The Misfires), has debuted themselves with a pair of impressive seven-inches (Heart of a Champion/Modern Radio). Their roots-rock pop is full of clean hooks, spirited earnestness, and streamlined rock power. It's gutsy rock that's hard and mean and slightly noisy, yet supremely melodic with a Sixties-meets-Eighties feel. Adding more slick, tongue-in-cheek cool to the post-hardcore scene.

Skyscraper reviews Sean Na Na/Lucky Jeremy 7"

A review of the very first Heart of a Champion release, published in Skyscraper #6 (Summer 1999):

Sean Na Na is the alias that Calvin Krime's Sean Tillmann has chosen for his solo efforts. And with Sean Na Na, Tillmann has taken a casual and dreamy indie-folk pop style with a bashfully melodic, uplifting direction. His songs are tender and playful, not incredibly morose nor melancholy. A cross between the sincere and the humorous. "Rising Stars," on his split with Lucky Jeremy, is another melodic, uptempo song that flirts with sadness by way of delicate vocals and some prominent tom-heavy drumming. Lucky Jeremy's "Little Fishies" is a quiet song with vocals sung in a near whisper and redundantly strummed acoustic guitar. Feeble pop songs from frail young men. (AB)
