Review:
Ethereal rock electronica. Very soothing, very 80's, very chic. Put your wayfarers on. The instrumental "Runway To Elsewhere", "Hold Me", "Break Your Social System" and a few more really took this album places. In fact, the only bad track I found was "Number One", only because of the really terrible chorus. The rest of the album works well with Beach Boys-esque vocal harmonies on top of cliche, but enterntaining, synth basslines. If I had to make a more recent comparison I'd say Fleet Foxes smashed with Cut Copy. Umm, sounds about right.
