And I think Noise Wall has a point, though I wouldn't say that the Beach Boys before Pet Sounds was just atrocious, but certainly less masterful.
I have to disagree with this. IMO Today! is far better than any of the Beatles pre-Rubber Soul releases.

Sunflower is good but give Love You a listen if you get a chance. It's the last Brian-helmed album and really, really good. The style is pretty different but it's one of my favorite Beach Boys albums.
