The concept for this is fairly original—welding riff-tastic heavy metal onto post-rock-styled instrumentals. "Bad Leg" and "Doing Research For An Autobiography" want to be Thin Lizzy—check out the choppy duelling guitars —but actually end up sounding more like prog-rock nerds Sky.
Things are redeemed with the excellent vocal track "Taking Liberties", a metal boogie stomp strangely redolent of early Big Star. But the three interpretations of "Gomez" only highlight this venture's throwaway tone.
It all adds up to a good idea lazily executed.
