At The Foot Of My Rival is the sixth album by The New Amsterdams released on September 25, 2007. It was released on CD, download and 180g vinyl, and is the first New Amsterdams album to be released on Curb Appeal Records.
"...The New Amsterdams wouldnâÂÂt be The New Amsterdams if it wasnâÂÂt for songs like âÂÂWaitâ where Pryor sounds as good as he ever sounded.[...] Unfortunately not all of the songs on here are as good as this one or as âÂÂFountain of Youthâ but overall âÂÂAt The Foot Of My Rivalâ is yet another solid release by a great songwriter." - Punkrocktheory
"Matt Pryor and The New Amsterdams are back with relatively soft, yet pleasant, melodies on their sixth album, At the Foot of My Rival. Though not exactly a priceless discovery, the group experiments with raw sounds (the album was mostly a home recording) and varied instrumentation that separates Rival from its predecessors." - Americansongwriter
