Title: OK, but a bit too wimpy and derivative for me
Product review: This is super-happy kitschy high-pitched-vocals bubblegum stuff.I guess I was looking for just a little bit more bite. The vocals are entirely wimpy and fey. We're not talking Monkees-bubblegum here, we're talking 1910 Fruitgum Company or even (gasp!) Lancelot Link & the Evolution Revolution.The music is also very obviously derivative. These aren't just influences, these are imitations. The melody of "Black Summer" sounds WAY too much like "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys.If your idea of perfect music is, say, watching reruns of the Groovie Ghoulies or Banana Splits jam to some unbearably happy, wimpy three-chord tune, complete with cheesy yeah-yeah's and ahhhh's between the verses, well, here's your record.
