My god is this a beautiful album!
AllMusic review

All you psych-pop fans NEED to.
Like Beachwood Sparks, but better.

Yeah, it's OK. Some of the songs are fun to listen to but it's not very memorable. Just like a lot of the second tier Elephant 6 bands.

Yes it does have Mrs. Bean on it.
And I felt the same as you, at first, Chris. But after repeated listening, it's really grown on me. A lot.

I tend not to go for that type of thing. I can't stand the Ladybug Transistor and the Essex Green remind me so much of them.

It's almost like there was a connection between the two bands or something....

i had this and sold it back. wasn't bad, but like chris said...not too memorable. kinda like bad belle & sebastian IMO.

todd, if you like this...check out the sixth great lake as well, as they are very similar.
