Album Notes & Community Reviews
Continuing his highly idiosyncratic streak following the dissolution of The Soft Boys, Hitchcock delivers one of his most melodic and accessible collections. Backed by his touring band, the record utilizes shimmering jangle-pop arrangements as a vibrant vehicle for his surreal, heavily 1960s-influenced psychedelic narratives.
