Surpassing Revival Status

"This is a great modern pop-rock album. sure, the logical classification it is is given is "mod revival", but the truth is that this album is better than anything that ever came out of teh revival(save for the jam). The album not only showcases great mod rock, but also motown dance beats, anthemic lyrics, and souful brass. I really like this album. I think this one of the few albums to come out of the mod revival that will actually live on, and maybe even find it's way into people's music collection who are not at all interested in mod rock, but just good music. ..."
Obscure Mod Revival Group

"I came across this group totally by accident in the early eighties, finding a cut-out bin vinyl copy for probably under a buck;they looked cool and I took a chance, and it proved to be more than a worthwhile purchase. Because of this group's obscurity I was surprised to see it released on CD, although the Japanese put out plenty of stuff like this. This record is pleasant, listenable, but nothing earth shattering. It should appeal to fans of The Jam, though the group is not quite in their league as songwriters. "Time For Action" and "New Dance" are the most memorable tracks. Some nice brass arrangements on this record also."
