^**** album artwork
Tick Tock, Tick Tock the noises of Big Ben open this album with "25 'o' clock". A very groovy song with one heck of a sweet bassline. Following this are fifteen more tracks of Psychedelic Pop, That aren't really terribly original but the songwriting is what makes this special. The songwriter really seems to be great based on this and no I haven't heard XTC but based on this album i'm going to
. So here are my highlights.
The Mole From The Ministry-A great number with some brill drum bits, sounds kind of Beatles-ish.
Vanishing Girl-A perfect pop song just so upbeat and awesome you can't help tapping your foot.
You're A Good Man Albert Brown-Once again sounds very Beatles-ish and has an amazing singalong vibe
Pale And Precious-Awesome song with an amazing Beach Boys sound
So all in all I was surprised that this band weren't actually Psychedelic artists as they have the sound perfected. Psych is my third favourite genre and I like to think I have fairly good taste in it and I found this to be pretty solid. And I will most definetly check out XTC.
