Review[]
Somebody tell Eric Elbogen we get it. And we want more. This electro-pop groover from the California expat-turned-Brooklyn hipster is a dashing collection of offbeat songs and thinly-veiled indie in-jokes. And even if you don't get them (Who listens to The Fall anymore, anyway?), or don't want to get them (Actually, emo went downhill after Mineral's End Serenading; what kind of self-respecting individual doesn't know that?), there's still plenty here for everyone to appreciate... Even a fitting rendition of The Beatles' I'm So Tired.
In a bizarre side-effect, it may even inspire you to say hi to your mom more. Now really, how can you go wrong with that? - Patrick Masterson
