A great album by a great band and one of my all-time favorite debut albums. Musicianship, lyrics, vocals, arranging, mixing (except for a couple of minor things I would've changed), production, everything comes together beautifully on this one. The album has a 60's vibe without sounding too dated or retro. It sounds of the past yet modern at the same time. Some of it reminds me of 60's pop, similar to Lulu and some of it brings to mind the psych-pop of Love and the film scores of Ennio Morricone with instrumental interludes between songs that make me think of Daphne Oram. There's also an underlying, mildly unsettling vibe running through most of the album which makes it all the more interesting to me. A brilliant debut album from a very talented group.
9.7/10
