    Kind of sound like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs... when they weren't good.

    One of the worst releases of 2006, easily. How did this group of untalented hipsters ever get signed to Ecstatic Peace? Moore must be losing his mind along with his hearing after one too many SY shows.

  1. Yes, the album drags. Yes, the tracks bleed into each other. It is, ultimately, a tiring listen from a band whose sole aim seems to be to innervate every neurone in your body.
  2. This is a young band not taking themselves too seriously, and you can really picture them as they rock out and enjoy themselves.
  3. Much of the reason for bothering with BYOP lies in the absolute glory of hearing Pearl succeed in making every lyrical couplet she spews forth sound as if she's been drinking cider since birth and is ready to hurl... anytime... now!
