Oh Boy (Harlem album)

Oh Boy is the third studio album by Austin, Texas based garage rock band Harlem.

Rytlewski wrote, "In 2010, no band seemed to be having more fun with scrappy garage rock than this one.

Rytlewski noted that for Oh Boy, Harlem "slowed the tempos, upped the production, and bled nearly every trace of boyish pep from their sound", a change that can be "hard to pull off".

They concluded, "Any band returning from a long hiatus needs to be judged on a curve, but no amount of expectation mitigation can completely shield somebody with an affection for Harlem’s old records from the disappoint here.

"[1] Elijah Teed, writing for Exclaim!, also began their review by discussing Harlem's previous albums, saying, "Free Drugs ;-) and Hippies were like the first embers of a campfire, jumping and crackling without discernible destination or intent, but nevertheless carrying the spark of something warm and inviting."
