Just so much fun. I am a sucker for brass, and offbeat guitar. We salute you ska!

This felt like a combination of Blondie and Cyndi Lauper. Very 80's very fun.

Feels like Adam Lambert before Adam Lambert. It was very well since, but it didn't grab me

Surprised to find an album without Not Too Soon on the list. Turns out they just write cool music. Love the sonic tone, swirling, distorted, slighly muted, great stuff.

I don't know how they never wrote a bad song. None of their songs are my favorite, but all of them are good. None of them are too boring or unoriginal to enjoy.

So many classics. Sloop John, Wouldn't it be Nice, God Only Knows, so many iconic classics. How can this not be five stars?

IsThisMusic is definitely a highlight of the album. I feel like this whole aesthetic really blew up in the 00's, will listen again.
