Brainiac really do stand apart from any band you listen to, know or have heard of. I struggle to reconcile them with anything out there and I really struggle to describe this album. I have to assure you, they know exactly what they are doing even though at times they sound like they have no fucking idea. Timmy taylor and co. are so relentless that the madness may take a while to penetrate. Whilst in a way they give nod to the bare bones ethics of punk, they also completely screw with it by adding countless layers of comical vocal and instrumental effects. This record moves in supposed contradictions; it's cheesy but sophisticated, on paper and on first listen, you'd never guess they'll make you dance and sing along like this...
