 Obscure Sound - Indie Music Blog » Goldenboy produces some golden pop
The name “Goldenboy” was actually given to Sullivan by Smith before his death, almost serving as a tribute.
Goldenboy’s sophomore album, Underneath the Radio, includes guests such as the Matt Sharp (Weezer’s former bassist) and Lisa Germano, who contributes several fitting violin arranangements.
Though Sullivan’s vocals and generally dark musical sound relate typically to The Wedding Present, the lyrical content of the album is also similar to that of his late friend, Elliott Smith, mostly dealing with loss and pain such as in the heartfelt ‘Perfect One’.

 Goldenboy — Right Kind of Wrong   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Coming through with a distinctive slow-dance punk song, “56” is a track that taps the Weezer well again, but strays away from being clichéd with the inclusion of a Spartan musical backdrop for Toke’s barely-sung vocals on the track.
Goldenboy comes through with a disc that is very solidly steeped in their general sound, but comes out of its comfort zone in all the right times, only showing a bare spot once or twice on “Right Kind of Wrong”.
By removing any specific stylistic nods to a period in music, Goldenboy has skillfully created a type of punk that will be as vibrant as the Ramones’ first albums are today.

 Goldenboy - Underneath The Radio :: Not Lame Recordings - power pop and melodic rock record label, music and CDs
Goldenboy's second album is a solidly crafted work of indie pop that touches on many aspects of that sound and, apart from a few hiccups, satisfies on many levels as it has hooky songs, emotional performances, and a very warm and inviting sound.
Why Goldenboy chose to do this when their own sound is so strong is a mystery, especially since, without the two songs in question, Underneath the Radio is a really impressive record.
At first sneak peak Underneath the Radio may seem to have been out in the sun too long but with follow-up listens it becomes obvious that these multi-instrumentalists have the ability to channel many different artistic influences and mold their sound from song to song"-Adequacy.net.

Goldenboy's two founding members, songwriter/guitarist/vocalist Shon Sullivan and bassist/engineer/producer/record label exec David McConnell, have quite the résumé.
Along with drummer Bryan Bos, the trio has already earned quite a reputation around the Los Angeles area, playing shows with friends Smith and Grandaddy before their full-length was even recorded.
