Really enjoyed that toe-tapping sound of the sixties!

The noise. Please stop the noise.

Not the best triphoppy. Started strong, but then got a bit too experimental for me.

The great thing about this project is discovering music that I would never have the opportunity to listen to otherwise. Great album

Good solid songs. Another great example of a band having their own sound and killing it.

I didn’t realize how many Cars songs I knew

I don’t get the love. Average at best

I felt a bit confused by this album. On one hand it's Paul Simon, so it's going to be good, but on the other hand many of the songs sound like they were written for Sesame Street.

Cars are Cars could have been sung by Elmo or Grover. Allergies could be a public service announcement by Big Bird. Song About the Moon? What about the dish, what about the spoon?

Title track was good though.

Loved this. It was comfortable like an old woollen sweater.

Is this the birth of punk. Sounds like it!

They could have named this album “Mushrooms or LSD” because you really need to be on one or the other to get this.

Other than the title track everything else is a mash of psychedelic noise.

Skip it man.

Not my favourite

Never a huge fan, but I appreciate their style

Punk? Goth? Whatever the label that voice is amazing

It’s certainly unique. Yes it’s shouty, yes it’s sweary, yes he’s pushing every limit to the extreme, but it’s good.

I didn’t hate this as much as everyone else on here seemed to do. I’d really not heard any pre-disco Bee Gees and this is obviously a band trying to find their lane. A couple of songs sound like the Beatles, some CCR, some country. Eventually disco would become their thing and they excelled at it. It’s a journey.

If there is a genre of music that really doesn’t stand up to the test of time, it’s The Beach Boys brand of harmony preppy-pop. The lyrics are cliched and borderline misogynistic. There was a time and a place for this. That time is not now and the place is not here.

Some great songs on this album and an extra star for nostalgia.

ThI’m s guy had a sad life and his music reflects that.

I quite enjoy this style of harmony-pop. They sounded like the American version on Mumford and Sons without the banjos. Which is a good thing.
