REVIEW: An album with potential with repeated listenings. I liked another song off their follow-up album called Do You Want To. But I'm only familiar with the one hit here, Take Me Out. A 2 for now.

COMMENTS: I remember when this one came out. I was stoked by its catchiness overall. I mean, truly catchy music IS great music.......sometimes. It is here. I love this album without restraint. Ok, maybe SOME restraint. I'm listening now and I'm still fully clothed.
