Unlike many at KZSU, I am a huge Strokes fan. If you enjoyed Albert Hammond Jr.’s solo records and are expecting anything approaching those, or a Strokes album for that matter, put this down and walk away, forever. That being said: Classic synth-pop melodies over slick, high-gloss production. Bouncy, upbeat, heavy on the synth and drum machine. RIYL: Wham!, Culture Club, late Weezer. 01.Sunny pop w/ a Thin Lizzy guitar line (4:43) 02. Slow intro, picks up to a bouncy pop tune midway. Fake fade-out. (4:59) 03.** The single. Actually sort of catchy, after multiple listens. (4:06) 04. Slow ballad. (5:03) 05. Funeral dirge for the old LES. (5:45) 06. Spooky modal synth bass. Lots of “studio magic.” (5:13) 07.** Slower tune; built around catchy whistle intro. CA beach pop. (5:25) 08. Slow indie ballad w/ a slightly funky beat. (5:03) | ||
