OK, I need a minor reality check here. I really, really like this album but I can’t quite put it into a context.Are they for real or are they some sort of calculated creation by a Simon Cowell wannabe? Is the ’60 girl group thing an homage, a post-modern ironic wink of the eye or something else.I’m not looking for validation of my taste. They’re fitting in nicely with Neil Young & Crazy Horse, James Brown and the Decembrists in my current heavy rotation but I’m curious as to what the story is. I’m not going to put them in any particular box, as the album is just too much fun that, but there is some comfort in context.
