Editorial Reviews
Product Description
"There is so much going on here musically that my head is likely to explode before I finish listening, but this is one of the most endearing things I've heard in years. Everything from police whistles, kazoos, a bucket and a physics book contribute to an indie twee pop sound that also includes more traditional instrumentation. Mastered by Robert Schneider of Apples In Stereo, it definitely has the E6 feel to it. Think Kung Fu Monkeys and Beach Boys, think The Crabs and Of Montreal, think harmonies and handclaps. This as perfect a release I've heard in a long time." - Shredding Paper
The Galactic Heroes finally follow up their classic pop record How About San Francisco with 12 pop gems that may be better recorded but don't lack any of the familiar energy and fun. Take The Hollies, The Beatles, The Beach Boys and The Everly Brothers; combine them with the sound of modern 60s revivalists Of Montreal, The Minders and Apples In Stereo - and you get The Galactic Heroes! Like listening to a modern day oldies station where half way through the song you are singing along and swear you have heard it somewhere. Come spend a day in the life of The Galactic Heroes.
