I liked the single 'Whatever Happened To My Rock 'n' Roll' when it first came out but I never investigated further. I found this album dirt-cheap today at €3 and just decided check it out. Apart from said single and a couple of other tracks such as the promising opener 'Love Burns' and 'Spread Your Love' the album sounds very dreary and plodding at times, and perhaps a good bit overlong
I think this album is the standout release amongst the garage rock revival, and that includes the Strokes debut. It has this dark, psychedelic quality to it that distinguishes it from albums released around the same time. One of my favourites of the decade, fo' sho'.
