Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2003-12-08
From Japan. Spazzed out crazy synths, punky rhythms, new wave elements, noisy, mostly just plain strange. Think: Devo, Devo crossed with something really spastic from Japan like the Ruins or Melt Bannana. Male and female vocs. Super cool stuff.

1) upbeat punky in a Devo way, quirky with changes
2) driving, tempo increases
3) driving with more melodic synths, still pretty crazy
4) more subdued beat, takes on a spy feel still wacky
5) very Devo feel in intro, goes almost new wave, upbeat, almost “normal”
6) pogo new wave driving feel, fun and strange with fem vocs
7) pretty cool near tribal beat launches into full assault
8) new wave dance on crystal meth, instrumental
9) heavy beat, noisy mid paced rocker
10) slower dirgier with vocoder, synth treated vocs, noisy bridge then launches into upbeat punk
11) upbeat pogo beat
12) driving rockin weirdness
13) more rockin spasticness
14) very new wave synth pop feel
