Evangelicals - So GoneTired of music that sounds like marketing scientists pieced it together in a lab in front of a focus group? This album sounds like its makers bought a case of cheap beer, set up some recording equipment, and let 'er rip.
Chock full of pretensionless and fun pop-rock songs, these Norman, OK swingers play with the abandon and earnestness that has been missing from recent releases by their homies The Flaming Lips recently.
Straight through, this album is a little trippy, a little groovy, and a whole lot of fun.
I'm told they are pretty compelling live, and now that I see that they are playing out this month with Serena Maneesh (who are insanely great live), I guess I've got no choice but to check them out.
