Grouchyfriendly is a work of art. Listening to Phil Roy's music reminds me to not despair over the empty, formulaic and all to familiar sounds attached to so much of the music playing on the radio these days. This record gives me hope. This record gave me colors I have not seen, stories I have never heard and music that is so refreshingly honest and emotive. My emotions surface while listening to this record...Grouchyfriendly enables the listener to feel emotions that may not have been easily accessible otherwise. Music, period.
