Album Notes & Community Reviews

Radically shifting gears from their Vaudevillian emo-pop debut, the Las Vegas band fully embraced 1960s British Invasion psychedelia and intricate acoustic orchestration. The record features lush brass sections, complex vocal harmonies, and primary songwriting contributions from guitarist Ryan Ross, reflecting a sunny, vintage baroque-pop aesthetic. The stylistic pivot proved incredibly polarizing for their teenage fanbase but earned newfound respect from classic rock critics.
