The Critters were a successful American crafted & smooth garagerock group who delivered several hits, and/or should have been hits, in the mid 1960s.
The group formed in New Jersey when singer-guitarist Don Ciccone and Bob Podstawski joined local group the Vibratones, comprising Jim Ryan (lead guitar), Ken Gorka (bass), Jack Decker (drums), and Chris Darway (keyboards). They named themselves The Critters in emulation of similar band names like The Animals.
In 1966, this melodic New York garage group released their first album, scoring a hit with the early-Turtles-esque "Younger Girl" and then chalking up their only Top 20 single with the original gem, "Mr. Dieingly Sad." The group's soft harmonies and pop inflected garage folk-rock were in a considerably stronger vein than most of their Kama Sutra labelmates. Recording quite a few singles and an LP for Kama Sutra from 1965 to 1967, their groovy pop/rock sound with jangle guitar structures are filled with catchy melodies that grow with repeat plays, especially their best singles which made the charts. After a final Top 40 hit in 1967 ("Don't Let the Rain Fall Down on Me"), principal songwriter Don Ciccone was drafted into the Vietnam war, and the group struggled without their leader on with a couple albums for the Project 3 label before splitting. Thus, The Critters best album is this first one...The Critters, like Chicago's Cryan' Shames, might have gone on to bigger and better things if the military draft, label snafus, and public perception hadn't short-circuited the creative life span of the group. As it is, they'll make you smile on a rainy day. There's something really valuable in that. If you dig the sound of the Turtles 'It Ain't Me Babe' first album, check this out.
