Until this album their first was my favorite. This one brings 'em back strong. Once again combining the energy with the brutal truth of the finely crafted lyrics.

Go! Indeed, Mike TV and the gang do produce straight ahead rock, kind of like a less quirky Dandy Warhols. They also have a rep for being dark behind the music, and I suppose any pop rock song about girls that includes references to Pakistan and Zimbabwe is somewhere over the edge. They certainly are clever, at the end of "Gotta Get a Job", he envisions success in the corporate world, "Gonna buy a house on the hills of Bel Air, Everyone will burn with terrible envy, Everyone will scream it simply isn't fair".

Cute, but that's where this CD loses it for me, it never stops being bright and clever to really engage as a piece of music. XTC (for awhile) had the facility to be wry and light, but serious enough to be taken seriously. These guys could do well to study "Skylarking" closely and follow along, five years from their debut they're still stuck being deviously childish (another song titled "Jesus . . ."?). For now, I'm rather bored with this, and I can't see it being on my regular playlists.
