On their debut, the Willowz didn't exactly come across as shy. Sure, the Anaheim quartet may be young in age (drummer Alex Nowicki is still in his teens), but they're bursting with the kind of confidence that takes some bands years to attain. Hey, working with Keith Morris (Circle Jerks), who guests on "We Live on Your Street," and Michel Gondry (The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) can do that (two songs on the soundtrack, one video). That said, Talk in Circles is a more diverse offering than their first. The garage-punk stuff rocks, of course, but there are quiet numbers, too, like charming country-tinged duet "Blind Story." That may disappoint those expecting a full-on rock assault, but it proves the Willowz aren't a one-trick pony and that--as long as they don't let that enviable store of confidence flag--they have a long career ahead of them.
