AllMusic[1]

Magazine is an album by the American indie rock group Jump, Little Children, released in 1998.[2] It was the band's major label debut.[3]

Critical reception

The Boston Herald thought that "from the three minute, three-chord sugar rush of 'My Guitar', to the cello-buoyed mope-rock of 'Cathedrals', Jump, Little Children comes off like pop-wise old pros."[4]

AllMusic wrote that "there's an accent on swelling, instantly gracious choruses, but the band seems a bit too tentative in their new direction to infuse the songs with the self-belief necessary for the music to rise above American indie convention."[1]
