I just saw Pop Levi's show last night @ the Double Door, Chicago IL. The man has such stage presence, its amazing!! Yea, his dancing might be odd to some...but to me its just another way he expresses himself through his amazing music! Plus what a guitarist!! Jeez! I could go on forever how great the show was!! Plus it was pretty awesome to hang w/him afterwards!

A bubbly album that has the essence of the Scissor Sisters yet more consistent in the same style as opposed to change.

I was pretty underwhelmed by this album. Maybe I bought into the hype a little too much, but I expected more. Sounds like Of Montreal if they were a lot less interesting.

I've felt guilty at every stage of my relationship with this record. I felt guilty when I read the first review in Under The Radar. Not sure why. The disc sounded like fun but 'how much more ultra-cool retro homages to years past can we consume' is a question I ask when at the same time Ryan Adam sells way more copies of three different albums in a years time. I passed on the album several times. The cover was so shamelessly obvious as the Marc Bolan mock-up. T-Rex rules and its true Electric Warrior and The Slider have still not gotten old. This however serves to explain why this album was NOT necessary instead of the other way around. So then I 'pop' (get it) the disc in and its fricken great. Of course, its fricken great because if it sucked all I'd have to feel guilty about is that I dropped my fifteen buck but this way I get to be reminded that I'm a predictable unit shifter all year long. As a side, it is actually really impossible to pry "Pick Me Up...Uppercut" from your temporal lobe. So in short, I hate it and like it and dig sometimes when I'm alone and can rock out in the privacy of my own home but I'll drop dead before i ever tell the wor--- oh crap.

Michael B gave it a7:
Is has all the vibrancy of Marc Bolan, but then so does Marc Bolan. It has the freshness of Beck, but then so does Beck. Etc etc.
