I've listened to this CD for years and I never get tired of it. It's so much fun. The range of musical styles covered on this CD is incredible--from one song to another, sometimes within the same song-- they switch from power-pop to alt-rock, indie-rock, heavy riffs, catchy melodies, clever and goofy lyrics; it's insane. It's almost impossible to label this album. If I had to, I'd probably call it Power-indie-pop. Very catchy and cool.

I'll admit it. I bought this CD because of Tangerine Speedo. Yeah, okay, it was cool to listen to that song for all of a week (or never), but if you listen to it, there are some seriously good traces of a skilled heavy-pop-electro-rock band. Blake Smith's voice is the perfect sound for this mix of heavy guitars, electronic and acoustic beats, and catchy samples. The lyrics are funny and sarcastic and smart but kind of dumb. A song like Goldmine for instance. How many songs do you know that talk about dating a rich, sugar mama who laced with metaphors and quasi-sexual references. The Good Times Are Over has one of my favorite lyrics, a girl who is "American as 3.1416". Flawed Like a Diamond, Going Out Tonight, Automatic Yawns, aw hell pretty much the whole CD rocks (except tracks 8 and 10, you might as well skip right over them. And just a warning, the last track is kind of a generic, melodic song)! Overall this CD rocked when I got it and continues to rock years later. Go, run, get it. It's perverse that you don't own this lyrically perverse CD yet.

This fun-sounding music has a beat that you are really going to enjoy. From the suggestive-lyrics in Goldmine and Flawed Like a Diamond to the laughable and singable tunes in Tangerine Speedo, there is a bit of something for everybody (except maybe your mother) on here. Definitely a good add for your collection!

These guys were originally called Fig Dish. Did you ever heard of Fig Dish ? That was the problem. The two albums recorded as Fig Dish (That's What Love Songs Often Do and When Shove Goes Back to Push) contained clever catchy songs but they didn't get much attention. Now they've changed their name to Caviar and they're back with even catchier songs and even more clever lyrics. This is a really fun album that you just have to listen in the summer.

There isn't a bad song on here, so I won't detail every one of them. I just want to point out the fun Tangerine Speedo, the energetic Sugarless and the surprisingly beautiful Looked So Hard I Nearly Wrecked My Eyes.

Call it catchy power-pop, call it summer music, whatever... Just make sure it comes to you when you do call it.

I bought this CD after hearing a couple songs and deciding that even if it was just those two songs I bought it for it'd be cool. To my great surprise there wasn't a single dud on the CD. Songs like Goldmine and Tangerine Speedo are totally over-rated, jaded, Don Juan anthems, whilst "The Times Are Over" and "I Thought I Was Found" are the type of song where you park the car, lower the seats and pull back the sunroof or take the top down and put the moves on that girl you've been wooing. Then you and your buds can rock out (and brag about your manliness) to "Flawed Like A Diamond" later that night in celebration! Can't lose. Buy now.
