The album itself consists mostly well crafted and beautifully arranged love songs and 1960s style bubblegum pop, its really interesting how a basement band small time project like this band can actually incorperate such modern terms and ideas and mesh them with a sound that timestamped an era in the way it did. I've always been a big fan of that sort of work, new light on an old school sound. Course, I'm a big Peter Noone fan, so I would love a throwback to his sound.
Afew notable tracks, "Darling Please Come Home" is a lovely lead off track that has a masterfully played guitar as the driving force of the track, it sounds like it was done on one of those old 58 Gibson guitars that rocked so harshly. "I Know What I want" is a lovely song about not giving up on a love that means more then the singer realized, its great, "April Showers" is a pretty little song that sounds abit like someone from acrossed the pond singing a happy Simon and Garfunkel track from the early days before they went all overly political and serious (not that I mind simon and garfunkel that way mind you..), its a pretty love track about curling up under a big umbrella in the rain. "Holidays and Saturdays" is a sort of an internet love song, its nicely done and well writen. "La La La Lisa" is a musicans love song, writen about a woman in another band and they're right, there is just something about a woman with a bass guitar...
The rest of the album is the same sort of work, its just a delightfull trip back in time to the era when people knew how to write a song, and knew how to play instruments, like actually play, not repeat the same three chords over and over again at an annoyingly breakneck speed wile someone screams over them, and when value was placed over just mindless agression of corperate marketing plans. I don't think anyone will be let down by this if you open your mind and give it an honest listen.
