OCS's sixth studio album....
follows the same brit-pop.1960s retro sounds of their others(not that I own all of them,just two or three others plus a live album)
heading off into the political arena on occasions here with the odd rant about Bush/Blair and the 9/11 attacks on US soil....
a pretty good album overall, but its bookended by two dismal tracks...at least whats inbetween is pretty good...
its an album for fans,not the casual listener...
if you want to see what this group are all about I suggest you try the 'classic',and yes I mean 'classic', "mosely shoals" album
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
worst track: I just need myself
best track: second hand car
