You know how in Hollywood when they make an adaptation of a property like Judge Dredd or John Carter or Flash Gordon, one of the criticisms is that it feels derivative of something like Robocop or Star Wars, when in fact those properties were the inspiration? That’s how I felt listening to this record. I got a lot of Weezer vibes listening to it, so much so that I googled when Weezer was formed and turned out this album came out a year before they became a group and four years before Weezer’s Blue album. Solid album imo but it’s funny to hear it and feel like it’s derivative when it’s not.
