Oh, great.
Opening with a remake of their track, “Big Store”, I so want to enjoy these guys. But, you know what? They are not great at what they want to be. Which is bright, erudite subway buskers turned recording artists. The landscape is littered with paisley retro jangle poppers during this time. I’m not surprised they disappeared. This isn’t awful. But it isn’t all that inspired either. And 20 minutes longer then it should ever ever be.
