This album is 22 minutes of pure pop pleasure. I'm not entirely keen on any of their other releases (though "The 3-Way" has some very interesting songs). "A Brief History..." is completely unlike any of their other albums: instantly catchy, nostalgia-inducing, and concise (as opposed to most other releases). I hate it when people describe a band in terms of other bands. Think Pavement drenched in viscous My Bloody Valentine fuzz guitar.
