Only played it once, and kinda enjoyed it while I was listening to it, but a day later couldn't name any of the songs (though I do rememeber phrases about robots, deviants and lots of things being "hot."). Definitely better than Good Stuff. Pretty streamlined sound and tougher sounding than any of their other stuff. Hooky, but in kind of a generic way. Album runs out of gas on what once upon a time would've been side 2 (but really, everthing after the first two albums does, too). It sounds The B-52s; harmonies are great, a little Fred goes a loong way, and there's goofy camp - some genuine, some forced. I'll certainly listen to it again and see if it sticks.

They were one of my favorite bands back in the day. How does the new record compare to their earlier stuff? Is it dated sounding? Too modern? Not modern enough? Unharacteristic? Predictable? Enough hooks?
