"Notes On Achieving Orbit," "Goals In Slow Motion," "Robocop 4 - Fuck Off Robocop," and "Sheena Is A T-shirt Salesman" are my favourites right now. "Robocop 4 - Fuck Off Robocop" reminds me a lot of this band called "Look What I Did".

@LifeAsAChipmunk:

I've posted the link to the entire album stream in the first comment.



@Archelaos:

Good picks. I also really like City Of Exploded Children, Sorry Dad I Was Late For The Riots, A Guide To Men and Anchor. So many awesome tracks on here.



@Deviant:

Thanks a lot. Much appreciated.

Album is pretty cool, at times maybe a bit too much for my taste. It may grow on me however.



Nice review.

This is more diverse and all over the place, while Travels... is punchier and more visceral.

Indeed, Lebowski. This review deserves a feature.

And Greg, Rubber Animals actually really grew on me once I started driving to it. In terms of album flow it's kind of out there, but as a singular song I really enjoy it. And yes, as for two tracks to eliminate, I'd pop Polymers are Forever and either this or Sorry Dad... from the mix.



Don't know why, but Sorry Dad seems really tepid and not very interesting.

Sorry Dad... is one of the most fun tracks on here imo. I think the bass line is fantastic on this one. Polymers Are Forever is only good, nothing special. So yeah... If I had to choose, I'd pick out this one too.

Good review, was about to do my own today, but I think you may well have nailed this. Saw them on Saturday night in Manchester and they were so good it was unreal.

Thanks a bunch. From what I've seen on youtube, they're absolutely killer live.



Glad this got featured.

There’s a penguin on it. So, it can't be bad.
