This album is like expert plastic surgery -- you know some of it may be artificial, but damn, ain't it good?
-
The songs are better than solid. They're catchier than catchy. These songs are just good.
-
A record of overwhelming deconstruction and newly explored territorial demarcation.
-
Whether Phantom Planet will be the second coming of Cheap Trick remains to be seen, but for now, it neatly fills the void for trashy, catchy power pop left by Urge Overkill's premature burnout.
-
The album is absurdly derivative -- songs like ''You're Not Welcome Here'' and ''By the Bed'' could be Strokes outtakes -- but something about its restless energy and sense of what-the-hell surprise is commendable.
-
What Phantom Planet lack in stripped-down hooks they make up for with a full-bodied guitar attack and big, bloodletting choruses.
